Bright Memory is an intense, genre-melding first-person-shooter that’s currently available for PC’s onSteam, and has been since earlier this year. It’s an incredible proof-of-concept, but Bright Memory as it is now is rather short, and doesn’t contain a huge amount of content. However, the game is built by one man, known as FYQD-Studio, and they’re working on building onto the concept of Bright Memory with a major expansion, improvements, and much more in the sort-of-but-not-really sequelBright Memory: Infinite.

While we all wait for baited breath for Bright Memory: Infinite, FYQD-Studio and publisher Playism have announced that the first Bright Memory is joining the growing ranks ofXbox Series XandXbox Series Slaunch titles, debuting on consoles on November 10, 2020. This will give players a chance to jump into FYQD’s creation and see what Bright Memory has to offer, which is insane levels of shooter action packed into a relatively modest game. It spells big things for Bright Memory: Infinite, which will be arriving sometime in 2021, and willlook amazing on Xbox Series Xwhen it launches.

Bright Memory: Infinite will massively expand upon the first Bright Memory, which is little more than a demo, and feature improved visuals and even ray tracing support, and frankly looks pretty incredible. It’s even more notable when one realizes that one person is behind this game, making it obvious they have put a ton of work into this passion project.

If you’re interested in Bright Memory: Infinite, you can already wishlist it onSteam, but you’ll have to wait a little longer before pre-ordering or purchasing it on consoles. Hopefully we won’t have to wait long to learn, especially with the Xbox Series X and S only a little ways away, with pre-orders opening throughout today.

The full next-generation experience.

Xbox Series X is Microsoft’s new flagship, as its most powerful console with over 12TF GPU performance and a custom SSD. It boasts up to 4K resolution and 120 FPS, full backward compatibility across four generations, and ray-tracing support.

Experience next-gen gaming for less.

Microsoft serves the next-generation for less with its budget-friendly Xbox Series S. The console packs the same high-performance CPU and SSD technology as Xbox Series X, while scaling back the GPU and removing the disc drive.
