"Although the Serious Sam series originated on PC, it has a long history of console ports as well. That's why we're seriously stoked that Devolver Digital and Croteam have finally released Serious Sam 4 on Xbox Series S|X (and Game Pass!) and PlayStation 5, complete with 4-player online co-op," says Co-Optimus.
"Nearly ten years after the first release of Serious Sam 3, Croteam and Devolver Digital finally released Serious Sam 4 on PC in 2020. One year later, an Xbox Series S|X version suddenly launched on Xbox Game Pass alongside PlayStation 5. While it’s great that console gamers can now enjoy the latest installment in one of my all-time favorite FPS series, major technical issues add plenty of unwelcome frustration to the console experience," says Co-Optimus.
Darren writes: "You know exactly what you're getting with a Serious Sam game, and Serious Sam 4 is no different. Issues aside, fans of the series should still have a blast with this one."
HPP: "Are you tired of carefully preserving ammo, cowering behind cover and taking measured shots? Serious Sam is back to save the day as he runs around like an Olympic sprinter, throwing highly explosive C4 around like rice at a wedding. The Serious Sam series is known for a less than entirely serious take on the FPS genre, showing an affinity for classic genre staples of wanton destruction seasoned with a goofily fun narrative."
I had not played a console SS game since the og xbox. And this is a really nice surprise as it is on gamepass starting today.
Is this on PC game pass also? I’ve never tried SS but interested to try it out if the barrier is low.
Also, I read that headline at first as Xbox Series Six 😵💫
Playing it now from GP, it’s pretty meh
I downloaded this for both PC and game pass. MS has been continue to release good games on game pass and as of late, they have been adding games with little or no announcements.
