Buckshot Roulette Now Available on Xbox Consoles and Game Pass
Fans on Xbox have eagerly awaited the arrival of Buckshot Roulette on their platforms, and after some initial anticipation for a 2025 release, followed by a shift to 2026, there's finally exciting news. Buckshot Roulette has just launched on Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S, and the Microsoft PC Store. For just $2.99, players can acquire this successful indie title from developer Mike Klubnika.
Furthermore, the previously promised addition to Game Pass has now materialized. This means that "Buckshot Roulette" can be played by subscribers of the service.
The core gameplay of "Buckshot Roulette" centers around a high-stakes game of Russian roulette against a dealer. In this unforgiving game, there's no room for error. Players must double down, take risks, and outsmart the system, all in a desperate bid to survive. The dealer isn't interested in your money; their sole objective is to end your life with a 12-gauge shotgun. It's a truly hardcore experience.
You can check out the Xbox launch trailer for Buckshot Roulette below. For a deeper dive into the game, be sure to read our dedicated review.
