Eternal Strands will also release on Xbox Game Pass in 2025.
Yellow Brick Games announced news during the Xbox Partner Preview that will delight Game Pass subscribers: Eternal Strands, the third-person action-adventure fantasy game, will be available on Xbox Game Pass from day one, when it will come onto the market in the first quarter of 2025.
The newly revealed gameplay trailer for Cast & Combine features the Highland Iceclaw – a fearsome flying epic that challenges players to rethink their approach in combat as they dodge its icy attacks or deliver a kinetic kill in mid-flight climbing his back.
The trailer also shows how the gameplay mechanics are aligned, encouraging players to use magical powers and combine them strategically for maximum impact.
This versatile magic system allows players to shape their own fighting style in countless ways, combining frost, flame and kinetic power to defeat the fearsome Arks and epic creatures in the Enclave.
Once defeated, these enemies will respawn, offering the opportunity to challenge them in other areas with new strategies to harvest their threads or collect rare resources with new elemental combinations.
Thomas Giroux, CEO at Yellow Brick Games, said: “We are thrilled to share this news with Game Pass subscribers today and are confident they will enjoy the Cast & Combine freedom and epic battles that our game has to offer.”
“The team is thrilled to be partnering with Xbox to give more players the opportunity to experience Eternal Strands when it launches early next year. We can’t wait to see the players’ reactions.”
