REPLACED: Blade Runner-inspired pixel-art sci‑fi platformer worth $20

Windows Central’s review hails REPLACED, a Blade Runner-inspired pixel-art 2.5D platformer by Sad Cat Studios. You play as Reach inhabiting Warren Marsh’s body, navigating a dystopian Phoenix City with weighty combat, parries, dodges, and finishing moves. The game features stunning lighting and atmosphere, a strong narrative, and an appealing $19.99 price with Xbox Play Anywhere and Game Pass support. While it’s concise and gorgeous, the reviewer wishes for more enemy finishers and content, but still highly recommends it for sci‑fi and pixel-art fans on Xbox and PC.
