For those of you that don’t know, Yoku’s Island Express is an open-world pinball platformer. You play as Yoku, a dung beetle postman who’s just arrived on Mokumana Island as the new postman. Using flippers and bumpers over an expansive world you pinball your way across the island, delivering the mail, and hopefully unravel the mystery with the ailing island god.

<p><a href="https://news.xbox.com/en-us/2018/05/30/moonlighter-available-now-xbox-one/"><strong>Embark on an Adventure in Moonlighter, Available Now on Xbox One</strong><br /></a>Moonlighter is the story of Will, a humble shopkeeper that dreams of being a hero, just like the customer visiting his shops. For us this was always a story very close to our hearts since, as game developers, we started working for other people. We developed games that were not based on our own ideas but, secretly, we always dreamt of developing our own worlds, telling our own stories. Just like Will, we dreamt of being heroic indie developers, while we humbly developed the games of others, to make a living. It all started with this idea about playing as the (always ready!) shopkeeper of your typical JRPG and, from there, it evolved into something that got inspirations from… <a href="https://news.xbox.com/en-us/2018/05/30/moonlighter-available-now-xbox-one/">Read more</a></p>

These types of games can empower someone with a new perspective or let us live a double-life as a superhero. Narrative-driven games allow us to become someone we’re not, which is perhaps the biggest reason we enjoy these experiences. Now, with the power of Xbox One X, creators can bring us even closer to their vision.
