It's always interesting to see what's selling well on the Xbox Store, as you can come across some hidden gems that you might not have known about, and the latest example arrives in the form of the new roguelite shooter, ROUNDS.
To be fair, this actually isn't all that new - at least not to PC players. ROUNDS has been on Steam for a few years, where it's racked up an "Overwhelmingly Positive" average rating based on over 21,000 user reviews, but it's only just getting its Xbox version. Its launch back in February makes it an Xbox console exclusive as well.
The game itself is described as a "1v1 rogue-lite shooter where each round gets more intense", featuring 65+ unique powerups, 70+ maps, and a combination of both local and online multiplayer support. The Xbox reviews for ROUNDS are currently sitting at 4.4/5 on the US Xbox Store, with 73% of all reviews having given it a 5/5 rating.
We'll throw more details about the game down below, along with screenshots. If you're interested in trying it out, ROUNDS has a free trial that you can download right this second on the Xbox Store, or you can buy it for £7.09 / $8.49.
"Rounds is a 1v1 rogue-lite shooter where each round gets more intense. The losing player of each round unlocks clever upgrades to create a better build to counter their opponent.
Experience hype-filled dueling! Shoot, block, and jump your way to victory with your shotgun-rocket-launcher-that-shoots-heat-seeking-bouncy-missiles or one of the other over 11.2 million different powerup combinations."

Is it a hidden gem if it's selling well though?
This one, I knew about, but the article made me a little more interested. Will research some more.
