Independent Spanish developer Abylight Studios have confirmed their throwback arcade platforming action game, Maldita Castilla EX, is coming to Xbox One.

The Ghosts ‘n Goblins-like platformer will release on Xbox One on July 20th. Retro enthusiasts can expect the game to pack 19 bosses, eight levels, and a total of four endings. There’s also hidden items, and lots of inspiration from Spanish and mainland Europe folklore.


Featured above, you can view the announcement trailer for the game’s EX version, which adds new enemies, bosses, and stages to the original freeware game.

Here’s a rundown on the game, via Abylight Studios:


The tears of a young witch have been turned by a demon into a key that opens up a gateway for the evil in this world. The King Alfonso VI of León has gathered his loyal knights to get to Tolomera del Rey and finish the nightmare using the power of the Witch’s tears. Banish the zombies and demons that entered the Kingdom of Castile with Don Ramiro, the loyal King’s Knight, and his friends. For that, you will use a different range of weapons to defeat your enemies through the cursed lands of Tolomera, in a pure classic arcade action style.

Explore Tolomera del Rey in depth thanks to brand new game stages and fight against new final bosses and enemies. Also, you will become a seasoned monster hunter with the new illustrated bestiary with unlockable information about the legends featured in the game. Brag about your combat skills with 15 new unlockable achievements and yell your battle cry with new songs for the original soundtrack and the remastered audio.
