The Best Xbox One Exclusive Game of All Time Is $2 on Microsoft Store

by

For just $2, you can get what many consider the best exclusive game ever released for the Xbox One. Originally launched in 2016, the game eventually became available on other systems like Steam, Nintendo, and PlayStation, but it first appeared solely on the Xbox One. It received an impressive 92 score on Metacritic, making it the highest-rated exclusive title for the console. While it likely didn’t boost Xbox One sales significantly, it stood out as a bright spot for a console that generally struggled to attract attention to its exclusive games throughout its lifespan.

If you’re wondering what game we’re talking about, it’s Inside, originally an Xbox One exclusive by the Danish studio Playdead. Despite being released almost a decade ago, it’s still their most recent game – they haven’t announced anything new in years. People are starting to worry that their next project might never actually come out. But even if Playdead doesn’t release another game, Inside was a significant and memorable contribution to the gaming world.

About the Game

Released in 2016—six years after the acclaimed game Limbo—Inside is often considered one of the greatest games ever made, and definitely a top-tier puzzle platformer. While it’s relatively short, lasting only three to four hours, every moment is exceptionally well-crafted. Best of all, it’s currently available for just $2, making its length a non-issue.

You can currently get the Xbox One version of the game for just $1.99 on the Microsoft Store – it’s 90% off until January 8th! While there isn’t a version specifically for Xbox Series X, it will work on your Xbox Series X or S console through backward compatibility.

The new indie game Inside by Playdead tells a mysterious story about a lone boy on the run. It’s a challenging platformer with a dark atmosphere, filled with both thrilling action and tricky puzzles.

Since Inside came out nearly a decade ago and is currently at its lowest price ever, it’s unlikely to get any cheaper. If you’ve been waiting for a sale, now is probably the best time to buy.
