The million-plus selling indie beat-em-up has a new update as it launches on Xbox’s game subscription service
More of a “Balance” update for Skul’s many wieldable noggins, the Reformation update takes a sweeping pass at the balance of most of the game’s skulls, adjusting factors like damage, skill cooldown and range. In addition to the big balance update, the update also includes improved visuals, and hit delay for all skulls.
Skul is also now available as part of Xbox GamePass on Xbox consoles and Windows PC.

The human race attacking the Demon King’s castle is nothing new and has happened countless times before. What makes this time different though, is that the Adventurers decided to join forces with the Imperial Army and the ‘Hero of Caerleon’ to lead a full onslaught in hopes of wiping out the Demons once and for all. They attacked the Demon stronghold with overwhelming numbers and succeeded in its total destruction. All of the demons in the castle were taken prisoner except for one lone skeleton named ‘Skul’.
