Xbox Live Arcade exclusive Islands of Wakfu will be available for download on March 30, the developer Ankama Play tells us.
A mix between a beat ’em up, a shooter, and an adventure game, Islands of Wakfu definitely has a slick visual style working in its favor. The developer is claiming it has a “dynamic, never-seen-before fighting style,” along with a two-player cooperative mode. Beating things up, shooting them, and adventuring around will cost you 1200 MS Points.
If the game kind of looks familiar, it’s because it takes place in the universe of Dofus, a free-to-play massively multiplayer online title. While that’s not really my bag, beating things up is. And Islands of Wakfu is certainly nice to look at, so I’ll be keeping my eye on this one, for sure.
