After 5 years, it's time to review the 5 best metroidvania in Xbox
I am passionate about Metroidvania: I love playing, exploring them and discovering everything they have to offer.

One of the most recent experiences that is also available on Xbox Game Pass. It offers intense fights and a precious artistic style. A worthy representative of the year 2025 for this beloved sub-genre.

A masterpiece of the Sevillian studies the game cuisine which is positioned as one of the major referents of the genre. You shouldn't let it pass.
