    The Pathless is a very solid action-adventure game, one that arguably is something that Xbox lacks. While a two-year-old game won’t set the world on fire in sales; I can recommend this to those folks who may have been waiting for this release on Xbox, the bright colors and almost anime-like graphics and exceptionally well-done soundtrack make for a chill and mostly rewarding experience.

    Lastly, there were a few frame hiccups here and there, most notably when entering a new plateau for the first time. These problems are relatively minor, though, and I still found the game to be incredibly fun to play regardless, but if they’re a deal breaker for you it’d be a better idea to look to other platforms for your Pathless experience. Overall, The Pathless is a game those looking for some action and exploration should definitely give a try.

    It's an amazing game with great mechanics, beautiful soundtrack, fun gameplay, challenging boss fights, open-world exploration, and puzzle-solving. Every time you clean your eagle from corruption and the way he hugs you, always melts my heart. If you have played Ori and the Will of the Wisp and liked the game, you should definitely try it.
