Blood Dungeon arrives on Xbox Game Pass as a day-one title for Ultimate and PC Game Pass members, a fast-paced 2D bullet-hell platformer with over 100 enemies and Xbox Play Anywhere support; Premium subscribers can also play the quirky shooter-racer Aerial Knight's DropShot on Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, PC, and handheld.

Still, it’s a fresh, highly playable take on the Bullet Heaven genre that rewards repeated runs and tight control.
