Phantom Abyss launches January 25
Includes overhauled Adventure Mode, new Abyss Mode, and whip changes.
Asynchronous multiplayer roguelike game Phantom Abyss will leave Early Access and launch for Xbox Series and PC via Steam and Humble Store on January 25, publisher Devolver Digital and developer Team WIBY announced.
Phantom Abyss first launched in Early Access for PC on June 21, 2021, followed by Game Preview for Xbox Series on October 20, 2022. It is also available via Xbox Game Pass.
New features added in the version 1.0 release include:
- Adventure Mode Overhaul – The Adventure Mode has been completely overhauled giving explorers a choice of a series of temples to explore, each with a specific whip, relic, and series of challenges to overcome.
- New Abyss Mode – The core Phantom Abyss experience, previously called Classic Mode, that challenges players to enter a temple and progress through all four areas within and collect the relic at the end. Only one person will ever complete each temple so time (and skill) are of the essence.
- Whip Changes – Whips no longer carry curses and are unlocked by playing Adventure Mode while whips skins are rewarded through player op-in challenges.
