Dean Takahashi: "Microsoft hopes that it has a new mascot character with Lucky, the star of Super Lucky's Tale. The game from Playful is a sequel to the virtual reality title Lucky's Tale, and it debuts on November 7, on the same day that Microsoft launches the Xbox One X video game console. I played it hands-on at a Microsoft preview event, and I saw its potential in appealing to a wide range of gamers who love platformers."
Since we are being encouraged to stay indoors, why not enjoy some relaxing games? Here are a few suggestions from the Xbox Game Pass.
Following his debut in Oculus Rift launch game Lucky’s Tale, adorable fox hero Lucky gave traditional platforming action a try in Super Lucky’s Tale for the Xbox One and PC. New Super Lucky’s Tale for the Nintendo Switch is an enhanced version of Super Lucky’s Tale, with new and remixed levels, story cinematics, and a fully-rotatable 3D camera. It also adds frequent framerate drops and a ridiculous amount of loading.
I personally didn't enjoy how quickly levels were locked behind collecting the coins from the past levels. Sure this feature has become a thing but honestly its a turn off. Mario did it and imo its one of the changes they made that was a bad choice. They got it really right in the first new super mario bros and even galaxy. Don't gate keep. Reward!
After receiving favourable feedback on Steam last September when the game released on Steam, Playful might be bringing their celebrated 3D Platformer Super Lucky's Tale to Switch this year.
Celebrated? Lmao barely anybody paid attention when this game came out, but now that there’s a possibility this game is getting ported it’s suddenly a “celebrated” title
While I agree it's not celebrated or even a top tier platformer. I did enjoy playing it with my daughter, it was simple enough for her to understand, but had slight difficulty spikes that allowed me to play and help her out. I'd like to see a sequel because it does have potential to be a great 3d platformer.
"Why would someone downvote this? This comment section is crazy."
Anonymous upvotes/downvotes are not comments. I have no idea why people like you are more interested with how people vote over what people say. That's whats really crazy.
"People like you".
Fuck you, you fucking bitch. good job generalizing and putting me in a god damn motherfucking bubble you fucking BITCH
People whining about votes is a common occurrence on n4g and yes, you obviously fit that characterization. The guy had only two downvotes at the time, but you couldn't help bitching about it. So yeah....you pretty much put yourself in that bubble all by yourself.
And I'm not generalizing anything. I called out people, like you, who bitch about votes. That is rather specific, not general at all. You, on the other hand, called the comment section "crazy". That was a generalization. Suggest you learn the difference and try not to refer to others as "crazy" before dropping a bunch of unnecessary F-bombs. lol
Lmao I thought the same thing, even reviews across the board gave it terrible scores, did the developers pay the writer to say this or what?
64 isn't terrible. In fact it's one more than the Order 1886 scored. Just to put that into perspective.
What’s the Order got to do with this or is that just an obvious dig at Sony you had to do
"64 isn't terrible. In fact it's one more than the Order 1886 scored."
Why are you comparing two "terrible" games as if that proves anything? Oh......cuz Sony?
@Foxtrot - because it was widely known here that the Order wasn't that bad and all that stuff. Regardless of what the score indicated. Metacritic doesn't mean everything.
While Minecraft exists and demonstrates that Microsoft is interested in having some of its games on more platforms, so far no other game published by them has received such treatment. So having Super Lucky's Tale being ported is rather surprising.
Yes, but they are still the publisher. And normally exclusivity is part of the deal with this sort of release and even more after all the promotion that Microsoft invested in this game.
Minecraft was on every platform before MS bought them. I’m not sure that it’s the best way to prove your point. I do agree that Microsoft wants to make money(as every company does. They seem to have the least pride about it, which can be a double edged sword.
The game was panned by critics and didn't sell a lick on XB1. In fact, the VR, console, and PC version all received poor reviews. I never understood why this subpar platformer continued to be pushed. It was never Celebrated. This PC release with favourable feedback is a 59 Metacritic, yes, a 59.

When did Microsoft own Lucky? They may be publishing the sequel, but the IP still belongs to Playful
To be honest, this looks just bad. Looks like a free 2 play smartphone game.
uhhh, microsoft doesn own the ip, so is not a mascot of theirs.
He look's like a mix of Tails and Conker.
