Undertale is finally coming to Xbox, withMicrosoftrevealing that the indie gem will land onXbox Series X,Xbox Series S,Xbox OneandXbox Game Passon March 16.
In anXbox Wire post, Executive Director of 8-4, John Ricciardi, revealed that nearly six years after the game’s original release on PC, Undertale will hit hitting Xbox for the first time. Previously the critically-acclaimed JRPG had only released onPS4,PlayStation Vita,Nintendo Switchand PC.
According to Ricciardi, there will be some key differences between the Xbox version and the previously released PC version, with Xbox fans having some exclusive content to look forward to.
“While the Xbox version provides for a largely similar experience, there are a few Xbox-specific enhancements designed to make for a more comfortable time for those playing on a home console,” Ricciardi wrote. “Because of these, progress and save data between the two versions are unfortunately not compatible. But this also means that, similar to previous console releases, the Xbox version features its own little…shrine, one might say…of exclusive content to look out for.”
