How’s this for a surprise Xbox Game Pass addition?! Despite not being mentioned at all in yesterday’s roundup of upcoming Game Pass titles, Buckshot Roulette has launched straight into the service for Xbox Series X, Xbox Series S, Xbox One, PC and cloud across the Ultimate, Premium and PC tiers.
This is a horror game where you play Russian Roulette with “The Dealer” in a “tense, claustrophobic single-player experience”, but there’s also a multiplayer component for up to four players. It’s a brand-new release for Xbox consoles, but it’s been on PC for years now and has an “Overwhelmingly Positive” rating over on Steam.
If you don’t happen to be a Game Pass member, you can still grab Buckshot Roulette on the Xbox Store for just £1.99 / $2.99, and it’s an Xbox Play Anywhere title as well – meaning you get a free PC copy with your console purchase.
We’ll leave you with more details on Buckshot Roulette down below, along with screenshots.
“The rules are simple. The chamber is loaded with a mix of live and blank shells. You and The Dealer take turns drawing items, racking the shotgun, and deciding whether to aim at your opponent… or take your chances yourself.
It’s a game of probability, mind games, and pure chaos. Will you play it safe? Push your luck? Bluff your way to victory? Or just die trying? The night’s still young. Grab your controller, take your seat, and pull the trigger. Double down, trust your instincts, and remember: there are no participation trophies at this table.”
