We’ve all heard that legends never truly die, and with this release, we’re giving the timeless X-Out another chance to shine. This isn’t just a remaster; it’s a full-blown, high-definition overhaul. The updated visuals are simply stunning, and the control scheme has been redesigned for a smoother, more immersive experience. If you’re itching to relive—or newly discover—the thrill of this iconic shoot’em up, X-Out Resurfaced offers the perfect opportunity.
Starting the game, you’ll encounter a unique loadout screen that was cutting-edge during its original release. It lets you customize your ship, weapons, and special options before plunging into intense, underwater combat. Dive headfirst into an ocean teeming with foes, as you guide Captain Granger and his trusty craft, Trilobite, in a desperate effort to fend off alien invaders making their approach from the depths.
But fear not if the task feels daunting. X-Out Resurfaced introduces a brand-new two-player mode, perfect for sharing the excitement—and danger—with a friend. After all, battling otherworldly sea creatures is always better with backup.
And we can’t overlook the updated soundtrack, which has been lovingly reimagined by none other than the original composer, Chris Huelsbeck. His revamped tunes are a vibrant homage to the game’s roots and a delightful treat for retro music fans.
As we anticipate its release, remember that pre-orders for X-Out Resurfaced are available right now. Mark your calendars for February 20, 2025—Captain, we’re counting on you, and good luck out there!

Dive into its eight beautifully redesigned stages where every element—from enemies to bosses, ships to weaponry—has been polished to perfection with enhanced graphics and atmospheric effects.
The soundtrack, painstakingly remixed by Chris Hülsbeck, accompanies your oceanic adventures with both revamped classics and new epic synth tracks. For a visual feast, the game’s original key art has been updated by Ogan Kandemiroglu as a tribute to his brother Celal’s iconic work.
