Menes: The Chainbreaker turns parries into sword upgrades on Xbox

Adrian Podaru’s action-platformer lands on Xbox and PC with a living sword that grows stronger through successful parries.

Menes: The Chainbreaker launched on November 13 for Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S and PC through the Xbox storefront. Menes is trapped in a desert realm whose would-be gods are prisoners as well as jailers. Defeating them reveals more of the realm’s history. Successfully timing a parry feeds Daedalus, Menes’s living sword.

Fights reward learning an opponent’s rhythm, while the routes between them put the emphasis on vertical platforming. The Xbox release supports Play Anywhere and Smart Delivery. Official source. Image source · Adrian Podaru / Rage Game Studio.
