Our take on Relic Odyssey : Ruins Of Xantao
The store gives equal weight to combat, crafting, drilling, glove abilities, and procedural generation, presenting a broad mix rather than a narrowly defined adventure. That framing leaves the relative role of each system unclear, including how much time is spent fighting versus gathering and exploring.
What is Relic Odyssey : Ruins Of Xantao?
Relic Odyssey: Ruins of Xantao follows Samuel, Sarah, and Clunky as they descend into the planet Valtar to find the lost city of Xantao.
Players fight creatures, smugglers, and other enemies with weapons and gadgets while exploring research centers, lairs, and ruins. AVARITE-powered gloves scan for threats and resources, move enemies, and interact with parts of the environment. Resources gathered during expeditions can be used to make weapons, mobile medical bays, and drilling-rig improvements. Drilling leads to procedurally generated levels, with each descent offering different environments, enemies, and treasures. The story also includes the Collector, who seeks the power hidden within the ruins.
