Publisher CULT Games and developer 17-BIT have announced Awaysis will be on Xbox Game Pass from day one.

The physics-fueled dungeon brawler game will be on Game Pass from day one when it launches across Windows PC (via Steam and the Microsoft Store), Xbox Series X|S, and PlayStation 5, sometime in 2026.

“Awaysis plays like nothing else you’ve ever experienced,” 17-BIT said in a press release. “It brings the precision of control that we’ve been dreaming about while playing physics-based combat games. With our amazing team and legendary collaborators we’ve built a new type of action game, whose movement is dynamic and meaningful, combat is nuanced and physical, while bringing people together in an unforgettable way. Jump in with your friends for adventures together or enjoy competitive mode for even more fun. Game Pass is the perfect way to open this up for fans of all ages to jump in and start causing chaos together.”

Here’s a rundown on the game, plus a new trailer:

The ultimate dungeon brawler. A revolutionary, physics-fueled throwdown where you’ll jump, slide, and collide on your adventure to restore peace to the Awaysis – an ancient floating relic under attack by forces of great darkness!

Features

• PHYSICS DONE RIGHT – Saving the world won’t be easy, enemies great and small are waiting for you at every turn. Luckily, a cutting edge blend of reactive and emergent physics, backed up by arcade-tight controls powers your combat and traversal through the Awaysis. It’s all about momentum and mayhem as you jump, slide, and collide around the world, bonking your enemies into the abyss. 
• UNLIKELY HEROES – When the threat of darkness looms, a ragtag bunch of unlikely pals must team up together to ascend the floating mountain of Awaysis. Explore the long lost secrets of the mystical temple to gear up, take on the Dark Lord of Darkness, restore balance to the world, and most importantly – convince the frog to get out of the hot-tub! 
• A WORLD IN FLUX – Great treasures are out there for those bold enough to find them! Explore a stunning world, where ancient magic meets modern chaos. Powered by a dynamic difficulty spawning system that will challenge your combat abilities as you smack your way through enemies (and maybe even some friends) to find enchanted loot hidden across this ancient relic. 
• A SOUNDTRACK FOR THE AGES – The legendary Hip Tanaka (Metroid, EarthBound, Super Smash Bros. Brawl) has worked his magic to make a bit-crushing soundtrack to score your adventure. So you’ll bop along as you’re bopping enemies! 
• IT’S DANGEROUS TO GO ALONE – A sprawling world can be explored in Awaysis, both for epic single players and awesome multiplayers.  Delve into the wonders that await on an epic single player quest or grab a fellow adventurer or three, and cause the ultimate chaos through couch co-op or online, and then blow off some steam in our fierce Fight Party PvP mode.
