Xbox Games Store Update – Homefront: The Revolution, Mimic Arena

xbox_logoxbox_logoBeyond the open world shooting action of Homefront: The Revolution, there are a few other new Xbox Games Store releases to consider this week so far.

Digital releases include Mimic Arena, Super Night Riders and the preview of Subnautica, which includes a free trial.

And of course there’s the Deals with Gold and Spotlight Sale (and a Square Enix Sale) to check out also.

Mimic Arena ($7.99)
Mimic Arena is a local couch multiplayer platform shooter that focuses on high energy and quick reflexes. Up to four buddies are pitted against one another, but only those who have mastered the arts of jump and shoot dare hope to stand a chance, thankfully you will have some backup. Everything the player does, wherever they go, and wherever they fire; is recorded and then played back again as a Mimic. These clones will be an integrate part of any players arsenal.

Super Night Riders ($9.99)
Super Night Riders is a modern arcade racing game inspired by the retro classics. You are Alice, a beautiful and talented motorcyclist known as the red rider. In this game, your position in the race does not matter. It?s all about traveling as far as possible while dodging the rival riders, and reaching each checkpoint before the timer goes down to zero. The gameplay is fast and responsive similarly to the best retro racers, while the low-poly style is inspired by the early 3D arcades. Ride through 36 beautiful stages in 6 challenging courses!

Homefront: The Revolution ($59.99)
Homefront: The Revolution is an open-world first person shooter where you must lead the Resistance movement in guerrilla warfare against a superior military force. A living, breathing, open world responds to your actions ? you and your Resistance Cell can inspire a rebellion on the streets and turn Occupation into Revolution, as oppressed civilians take up the fight. But your enemy has the advantage ? superior technology, firepower, heavy armour and air support. You must learn the art of guerrilla warfare ? ambush, sabotage, infiltration, deception ? and fight a running battle through the war-ravaged suburbs of Philadelphia.

Subnautica ($19.99, free trial)
This game is a work in progress. It may or may not change over time or release as a final product. Purchase only if you are comfortable with the current state of the unfinished game.

Descend into the depths of an alien underwater world filled with resources, creatures, wonder and threats. Craft equipment and submarines to explore lush coral reefs, volcanoes, cave systems, and more ? all while trying to survive.
