The insects are coming in Hexapoda on Xbox

Are you ready to fight back against the insect invasion? Hexapoda on Xbox and PC will have you doing just that. 

Available to purchase and download right now on Xbox is Hexapoda. It comes from the TOMA team (The One Man Army), playable across Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S and PC. And what’s more, even though this is a little indie shooter, it has Xbox Play Anywhere support in house too. That means you can pick up and play this one across all three platforms without issue. 

The insects are coming

And we think you should be playing Hexapoda too. A vertical scrolling shooter (although apparently there is screen shift included that lets you take things in horizontally if you prefer), Hexapoda has you fighting back against waves of insect armies.

See, humanity is on the brink (yet again) and you are the last hope, hired by a team of scientists in hope of discovering the way to bring humans back to the surface of the planet. Kicking around underground forevermore is no fun. 

Hexapoda seemingly has tons about it too. There are numerous game modes, various endings, tons of stages and more giant insects than you can shake a fly swatter at. And whilst it may feel that it is fairly basic visually, there is tons of depth to what is on offer. 

You can also throw in some local cooperative play if you like too. Cooperative shoot ’em up action? Sign us up.

Game Description

Get ready to fight giant Insects for the future of humanity! After the last human war, gases were spread through the atmosphere, making it unbreathable. The richest fled to orbital colonies and the others took refuge underground. You are a young hothead, hired by a team of scientists left on earth who are looking for a solution to bring humans back to the surface. Playable from 1 to 4 players (local co-op), Hexapoda is inspired by Arcade classics.
