Fans of tough-as-nails platformers have a new challenge on the horizon, as ‘Diamond Hands: To The Moon’ prepares to launch on the Xbox Series X|S. Already known for its difficulty, this indie platformer is set to arrive on Microsoft’s consoles on August 14, 2025.
The game promises a classic yet punishing experience, relying on deceivingly simple mechanics that players will find hard to master. Each level brings its own set of brutal obstacles, requiring tight precision and quick reflexes. The learning curve is steep, appealing to gamers who appreciate a test of skill and perseverance.
‘Diamond Hands: To The Moon’ stands out visually with its 2D retro-style pixel art, complementing a tongue-in-cheek, humorous tone that runs throughout its stages and story. The lighthearted approach helps balance out the intensity of its platforming challenges.
Adding to the fun, the game includes a local co-op mode for two players. Teaming up lets friends tackle the most difficult jumps and obstacles together, amplifying both the difficulty and the laughs. This functionality makes it a compelling choice for gamers looking for a cooperative experience.
Previously available on PC and Nintendo Switch, ‘Diamond Hands: To The Moon’ has already established a reputation for its demanding gameplay and quirky charm. With its upcoming release on Xbox Series X|S, a new group of players will soon get the chance to see just how far they can go before running out of lives.
