Now it’s up to you alone to stop an alien invasion from the depths of the ocean in this legendary, home computer era shoot ‘em up dredged up and faithfully rebuilt for modern platforms – X-Out: Resurfaced!
In 1990, the year of X-Out’s initial release on Amiga, it stood out as a breath of fresh seaside air in the stale shoot 'em-up space.
Partly, because it didn’t take part in “space” as so many games of its genre did (and still do) but instead went for a dive through underwater worlds.
But what really pushed it further than its other side-scrolling competitors was its shop system allowing players to mix and match from a wide variety of ships, weapons, and other accessory parts to build their fleet making every playthrough (attempt) feel different and unique.
Now 2025 X-Out the highly challenging underwater shoot ‘em up from game developer legends Rainbow Arts is finally returning.
ININ and Ziggurat have collaborated to bring you a faithful remake completely rebuilt from the ground up and greatly improved.
The impressive sprite work of yesteryear has not only been remade into even more impressive modern high-resolution sprites but also greatly expanded upon with particle and lighting effects. 8 varied stages, the enemies, the bosses, the ships, the projectiles; Everything shines in a brand-new light!
Apart from the visual journey each playthrough, you’ll embark on a musical one as well: epic synth soundscapes that drive you forward by none other than yours truly, the magnificent Chris Huelsbeck. In addition to him remastering his original works, we have committed ourselves to creating 6 entirely new tracks as well.
And not just Chris Hülsbeck, we also managed to get in contact with Ogan Kandemiroglu, brother and co-artist of Celal Kandemiroglu who created the original iconic key art of X-Out, to take on that task for the remake as a tribute.
Of course, the shop system is back and thoroughly improved as well: New preconfigured load-outs allow you to jump straight into the action, added item descriptions helping new cadets configure and build their fleet, and FINALLY marked the available slots for your weaponry.
Should you still feel overwhelmed by X-Out’s challenge, then maybe it’s time for a co-captain. Enlist a friend and face the terrors from the ocean deep together in local 2-player coop!
If you think you’ve seen everything there is to the game already then prepare to have your bearing changed and your gyro twisted in the Mirror Mode and its reverse scrolling levels!
Experience a fresh but faithful take on a real shoot-’em-up classic!
Get dazzled by the new and beautiful sprite work mixed with shiny particle and lighting effects!
Take a journey through new and old synth soundscapes courtesy of composer legend Chris Huelsbeck!
Choose one of three load-outs or build your own fleet in the improved shop system!
Grab a trusty ally and face the depths together in a 2-player couch coop dive!
Get your world flipped, turned upside down in the Mirror Mode!
Too challenging? Don't fret we got some cheats for you to breeze through the game with ease!
XOut Resurfaced for PC starts at €14.27 at Difmark, 29% under the €19.99 of the official store — but that is a shared account, not a key of your own. If you want a key tied to your own account, the cheapest is €17.99 at Kinguin.
That €14.27 already includes the Gocdkeys coupon, so apply it at checkout or the store will show you a higher price.
Only 3 offers across 3 stores carry it, and thin supply means the price barely moves.
That puts it 29% under its average of €19.99 since 2025, so today is a better entry point than most days of its life.
That €17.99 key is expensive for what it usually costs.
Worked out from 174 daily records of the Steam Key for XOut Resurfaced across 2 stores. See the full price history.
The price does not include each store's payment fees. The percentage is measured on the store price, without coupons, because that is how we record the history. The analysis only counts Key offers. Shared accounts, Steam Gift and physical editions stay out, because they are not the same product and their prices move differently.
With the shared account at Difmark you log into an account that already owns the game: it is the cheapest route, but it never becomes yours and the seller keeps the credentials. If they ever lose or change them, you lose access.
The key at Kinguin costs €3.72 more, but you redeem it on your own account and the game stays there for good. That is the difference between renting and buying.
All 3 offers are Global, so the code redeems on any account no matter where it was created.
Critics put it at 70 out of 100, though there are only 19 reviews published so far.
