Infinity Knights: Xross 3-Player Couch Co-Op RPG Hits Kickstarter

Three-player couch co-op RPG channels the spirit of '90s SNES-era RPGs, combining innovative game systems, an engaging story, and music by Hiroki Kikuta

PERTH, AUSTRALIA - June 25, 2024 - Independent game developer Timesea Studio is thrilled to launch their crowdfunding campaign for Infinity Knights: Xross. Announced last month, Infinity Knights: Xross brings back the magic of three-player couch co-op in the setting of fantastical RPG about a king and his Infinity Knights manipulating the rules of life and death. Drawing inspiration from classic RPGs such as Secret of Mana and Dark Cloud, Infinity Knight: Xross features meticulously-crafted pixel art, innovative gameplay systems, an engaging story, and music by Hiroki Kikuta (Secret of Mana, Indivisible), which can be heard in the Kickstarter trailer. The campaign has a funding goal of 55,000 AUD (Australian Dollars) and will run for 30 days. Rewards include all the essentials: the game (starting at approximately $23.50 USD), soundtrack, art book, and exclusive access to demo builds as well as the ability to contribute to the design of the game's locations, enemies, items, and characters. Infinity Knights: Xross is live on Kickstarter today:

"The three of us brothers are so excited to bring a new co-operative RPG to the world that pays homage to some of the most nostalgic eras of videogames," comments developer Saxon Goodrick. "We’ve taken great care in crafting this universe, the story, creating engaging mechanics and gameplay, implementing fun minigames… everything! There’s a wealth of characters to select and experience, special attacks and customisation to choose from and develop, and an adventure we’ve been eager to share with the world for years. We very much hope you’ll join us as we bring Infinity Knights: Xross to life."


Infinity Knights: Xross innovates on classic JRPGs of yore with a clever system centered around The Armaments: weapons capable of reviving slain enemies. As Xross, the newest member of the Infinity Knights, players must master these weapons and explore both static and randomly-generated dungeons as they uncover the game's deep story. Infinity Knights: Xross is planned for release on Steam, PlayStation 5, and Nintendo Switch in late 2025.
