Especially the scale on the grandiosity of it just feeling impossibly large and you're feeling really tiny and insignificant in as many ways as possible. That was kind of the vision of the game: Control the traversal, the environments that you're moving through, and the spectacle of it all. The game's focus is less about combat and more on movement, as lead developer Alx Preston stated "We're traversal first. The player controls the main character Rei, a Voidrunner within a black hole known as the Ultravoid, through a bright-neon colored, three-dimensional landscape, avoiding obstacles and attacking enemies with energy slashes and a phase-shifted and hard light sword, as Rei tries to save her planet.

Solar Ash is an adventure platforming game. It is set in the same fictional universe as Heart Machine's first and previous game, Hyper Light Drifter, but there are no direct connections between the two games' stories.

The game's story explores themes of trauma and moving on from dramatic, devastating life events. It is also scheduled to release via Steam in December 2022, and for Xbox One and Xbox Series X/S in Q4 2022. It was released on Decemfor PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5 and Windows. Either way, given that Solar Ash just launched on Steam a couple of weeks ago, it seems highly likely that we'll hear more about this Xbox release in the near future.Solar Ash is a science fiction adventure platforming game developed by Heart Machine and published by Annapurna Interactive. Currently, Annapurna and Heart Machine haven't verified that the game has been "delayed" in an official capacity, so perhaps this winter window that was previously announced was always meant to account for early 2023 as well. Given that 2022 is now essentially done, it's clear that Solar Ash won't be coming to Xbox platforms until next year. Based on what we now know, though, this doesn't seem to be the case. Despite never receiving a specific launch date on Xbox, Annapurna said that Solar Ash would be releasing "this winter." As a result, most people assumed that this meant winter 2022. Previously, Solar Ash launched in late 2021 on PS5, PS4, and PC, so its arrival on Xbox had been long-awaited. Earlier this summer, Annapurna Interactive and developer Heart Machine revealed that the game Solar Ash would be coming to Xbox Series X/S, Xbox One, and Xbox Game Pass.
