Digital platformer for Xbox One

Horace is a downloadable action-adventure platformer published by 505 Games for Xbox One. The game delivers over 15 hours of 2D platforming challenges blended with metroidvania-style ability progression. It targets players who appreciate narrative-driven indie titles with retro-inspired aesthetics.

Instant access via digital code

The downloadable format eliminates physical media and ships a digital code redeemable on the Xbox store. DRM is tied to the Xbox One ecosystem, so the licence remains linked to the purchasing account. No disc drive or shelf space is required to play.

Account-bound licence for one console family

Because the product is a digital code, it cannot be resold, lent or transferred to another Xbox profile. Buyers who prefer physical ownership or want to share the game across multiple accounts should consider that limitation before purchase. The ESRB Teen rating covers blood, drug reference, language, tobacco use and violence.
