Publisher Eastasiasoft and developer AOne Games have announced 2D horror fighter Omen of Sorrow heads to for Xbox One in 2021, both companies announced.
Omen of Sorrow was originally released for PlayStation 4 back in November 2018, with a Windows PC (via the Epic Games Store) release afterwards in 2019.
Here’s a rundown on the game:
Omen of Sorrow is a classic 2D, four-button fighting game, with Unreal Engine 4-powered graphics, a cast of characters inspired by classical horror, fantasy and mythology, and a battle system designed from the ground up to leverage player skill, rather than stats or random chance, featuring deep combat mechanics that favor movement and spacing over tight execution to provide an engaging experience for pros and newcomers alike!
Using a netcode technique called rollback (GGPO), we’ll provide you with a near-lagless online experience. You’ll also be able to fight your friends in Local Multiplayer; having someone in the same physical space when playing a game is a very different experience than playing with them over the Internet. You know that, and so do we.
