Citizen Sleeper 2 and Eternal Strands are set to enhance the Xbox Game Pass lineup this January, much to the excitement of gaming fans. Yellow Brick Games is gearing up to release their action-adventure masterpiece, Eternal Strands, on January 28, 2025. Just a few days later, on January 31, 2025, the eagerly awaited sequel, Citizen Sleeper 2: Starward Vector, will also debut on the platform.
### Eternal Strands
Powered by the creative minds at Yellow Brick Games, Eternal Strands is a thrilling fantasy action-adventure that immerses players into a captivating story. You find yourself in the role of Brynn, a Weaver equipped with formidable magical powers. The game’s narrative unfolds decades after the Enclave isolated itself from the outside world with a barrier thought to be unbreakable. A daring group of Weavers, however, has discovered a breach, and it’s Brynn’s quest to delve into this mysterious world and reclaim the cultural heritage of her people.
As Brynn, your journey takes you through enchanting wildlands and the bustling capital city of Dynevron. Along the way, you’ll wield magical weapons and harness your abilities to battle an array of fantastical adversaries, ranging from humanoid constructs to massive beasts. Each encounter brings you closer to unraveling the secrets buried within this forgotten realm.
### Citizen Sleeper 2: Starward Vector
Following the phenomenal success of the 2022 tabletop-inspired RPG Citizen Sleeper, its sequel, Citizen Sleeper 2: Starward Vector, promises to deliver an equally engaging experience. In this narrative-driven game, players step into the shoes of a sleeper—an intriguing blend of human consciousness and an artificial body. You are on the run from the very corporation that created you, and survival hinges on building alliances across the vast Starward Belt and seizing control of a spaceship to carve out your destiny.
Jump Over the Age, the developers behind this captivating series, have fine-tuned the tabletop RPG mechanics that fans adored in the first game. They’ve introduced a ‘Push’ ability unique to each class, designed to alter the course of challenging missions. Whether this ability becomes a valuable asset or leads you into risky territory depends entirely on your strategy in high-stakes situations.
Citizen Sleeper has already secured its place as a standout title on Xbox Game Pass, making it a must-try for subscribers. What are your thoughts on these thrilling new additions to Game Pass? We’d love to hear your take in the comments below!
