This is the action-adventure you’ve been waiting decades for. After a lab accident, a scientist awakens in a mysterious, alien world. Is this a distant planet? The far future? Or a complex virtual-reality computer simulation?

Plumb the recesses of a large, labyrinthine world in order to learn its secrets and uncover your role within it.

Discover tons of weapons, items, and abilities, each with their own unique behaviors and usage. You’ll need your wits to find them all.

Combat bizarre bio-mechanoid constructs, the deadly fallout of an ancient war, and the demons of your own psyche.

And finally, break the game itself by using glitches to corrupt foes and solve puzzles in the environment.

Life. Afterlife. Real. Virtual. Dream. Nightmare. It’s a thin line.

It’s AXIOM VERGE.

By Far one of my favorite Metroidvania 2D Platformers. It was this game, released in 2015, that gave me the opinion that is doesn’t matter if you are confined to pixel graphics, if the story is good and the characters are relatable enough, and the gameplay is solid – you will have a good game regardless! And AXIOM VERGE can not be a better of an example of that, winning Gamespot’s Best of 2016, Best of E3 2014, HardcoreGamer’s Best of 2015, Smashpad’s Top 10 Games of 2015 among others.

If you are interested in buying AXIOM VERGE, you can get it on Steam for $19.99
