Xbox Games Store Update – CastleStorm: DE, Defense Grid 2, Slender

A pair of fun little tower defense-inspired strategy titles are hitting the Xbox One today – CastleStorm: Definitive Edition and Defense Grid 2. Slender: The Arrival, the twisted looking official Slender Man game sneaks onto the Xbox 360 too.

The games are actually pretty different of course, but either should keep players busy until the next wave of big releases comes along… we’re looking at you Forza Horizon 2 and Shadow of Mordor.

Read on.

You?re on your own. No one to come for you. No one to help you. No one to hear you scream.
