“Speed through stunning environments, tracing ribbons of light and fighting epic boss battles, all to an incredibly licensed soundtrack,” Xbox’s description of Aaero, arguably the least known title in the mix, reads. “Featuring music from Noisia, Flux Pavilion, Katy B, The Prototypes, Neosignal, and more, feel the groove and release the energy that lives in the music.”
“In a futuristic 3D open world, join a group of young rebels, the Gamers, and fight against oppressing laws while performing incredible tricks and combos,” Xbox’s description of Hover, the other lesser-known title in the bunch, states. “Equipped with high-tech gear allowing for amazing jumps and speed, help the citizenry, and find a way to reach the Orbital Station.”
As noted above, Aaero and Castlevania: Harmony of Despair are set to be available as part of Xbox Games with Gold starting October 1st. Both Hover and Resident Evil Code: Veronica X are set to be available beginning October 16th. Xbox Live Gold, which is the subscription service required to claim these games, costs $9.99 per month.
