The Sinking City 2 on Xbox Series X|S

Platform capabilities

The game is optimized for Xbox Series X|S. It is not listed for Xbox One.

Microsoft lists 4K Ultra HD, ray tracing and 60 fps+. These are storefront capability flags, not a promise that every scene uses the same resolution and frame rate.

Xbox cloud saves are supported. Achievements and single-player play are also listed.

Cloud gaming and Game Pass

Cloud play is supported through eligible Game Pass tiers. The Microsoft page states that the game must still be purchased; it is cloud playable, not included in the subscription catalog.

Do not confuse cloud access with Game Pass inclusion. The subscription supplies the cloud-streaming entitlement while ownership supplies the game license.

Editions and price

The US Standard Edition is $49.99. Deluxe is $54.99 and adds the Arkham Field Kit.

Premium is $59.99. It includes the Field Kit and The Holloway Manor story add-on with the base game.

Regional prices and sales can differ. Use the Xbox page for your account region before purchasing.

Critical reception

The Xbox Series X Metascore was 84 on August 24, 2026. Only five critic reviews were counted, so the platform average has a small sample.

Reviewers highlight Arkham's atmosphere and confident survival-horror direction. Inventory friction and the reduced detective structure are the most common cautions.
