«Gather a friend and dive into Orbitals, a cooperative intergalactic adventure set in a unique universe inspired by retro anime. Play as Maki and Omura, two inseparable explorers whose unwavering determination makes up for their lack of experience. Together, you'll face space's dangers in a quest for parts to save your home — an old station trapped in a supernatural cosmic storm. The duo will have to venture beyond the storm into uncharted territories in a desperate effort to rescue the station. Strategy, bravery, and teamwork are essential for success!»
Orbitals is a co-op game where two players take on the roles of Maki and Omura, space explorers willing to do whatever it takes to save their endangered home planet. Staying true to the genre, it challenges players to figure out the right path to progress, working together to activate platforms or unlock doors... Each character has their own unique tools and abilities that complement each other, allowing players to move forward side by side.
This brand-new title invites us into a retro, vibrant universe that's fun and suitable for players of all ages. You’ll explore a space station, float through the air, encounter adorable aliens, and jam to catchy tunes... This adventure game thrives on its playful, childlike charm and highly engaging gameplay, making it a hit with both seasoned gamers and teens alike.
Orbitals can be played in local multiplayer on the same screen or online through the Gameshare feature: there's no need for both players to own a copy of the game, as it can be shared between them.
