UPDATE [9:03 PM]

Phantom Abyss version 1.0 is already available. If you encounter any problems while playing, you can find solutions in the official guide.

As announced, Phantom Abyss is leaving early access today on Steam and Xbox Series X/S. The Team WIBY studio's game is finally getting an update to version 1.0 after over 2.5 years of development.

The title in which players can feel like Indiana Jones hasn't been a big hit on Steam so far. However, it didn't go unnoticed, and early access players appreciated the unique gameplay and asynchronous multiplayer aspect of the game, resulting in 86% positive reviews on Valve's platform.

The game may attract a wider audience following the release of version 1.0 and, naturally, the launch of Phantom Abyss on PC and Xbox Game Pass. Microsoft service subscribers can now access this title, which will be accompanied by another newly released game, the twin-stick shooter Go Mecha Ball, from Whale Peak Games studio at 3:00 PM.

Update 1.0 doesn't just mean the early access is over. The developers have completely overhauled the Adventure Mode, made enhancements to the Abyss Mode (formerly known as Classic Mode), and implemented numerous fixes, such as improving the mechanics of the whip. We simply need to wait for the full list of changes and the release of the complete version of Phantom Abyss on Steam.

He started with platformers, which he still dearly loves (including metroidvania), but he's also interested in card games (including 'analog'), brawlers, soulslike games and basically every other type of game. Don't ask about the graphics – after a few hours of exposition, he can be delighted with pixelated characters from games that remember the days of the Game Boy age (if not older).
