Suit up, marines… Xeno Crisis is back by popular demand! Reef Entertainment, in collaboration with Bitmap Bureau, are thrilled to announce that Xeno Crisis is getting a standalone physical PS5® release, along with the game’s first-ever physical release on Xbox Series X! Joining the PS5® and Xbox Series X releases will be physical re-releases of the PS4® and Nintendo Switch™ versions. The Nintendo Switch™ version is currently slated for an EU-only release.
This latest Xeno Crisis release offers a tangible piece of pixel-perfect alien-slaying action to collectors and retro game fans alike, a true testament to Bitmap Bureau’s dedication to preserving physical media.

Xeno Crisis gives up to two players the ability to work together to take control of elite marines, running and gunning through deadly missions to destroy an alien menace. The battle for survival through Outpost 88 requires players to strategise on the fly and collect dog tags from vanquished enemies that can be exchanged for a variety of upgrades, with plenty of options to suit different playstyles.
With stunning art from the legendary pixel artist, Henk Nieborg, this 16-bit-inspired arena shooter allows players to explore seven varied areas, master an arsenal of 10 weapons and annihilate a variety of enemies. Xeno Crisis has been an ongoing passion project for Bitmap Bureau, and the team is delighted to continue to make new formats available for fans who have been supporting the game since its first release.
“In a digital world, there is still something really special about a physical copy of a game. That feeling when buying and holding one never seems to fade.” - Matthew Cope, Technical Director
Fans looking for an extra physical bonus can head to the Bitmap Bureau Store to receive an exclusive arcade token, perfect for collectors! This token is included with any physical edition of Xeno Crisis purchased on the Bitmap Bureau Store and is the latest addition to a growing set for long-time Bitmap Bureau fans, many of whom have previously collected the Terminator 2D: NO FATE coin! Additionally, all physical editions also include a printed game manual and a reversible cover sleeve.
The title will be launching on June 26th, 2026, and pre-orders are now live on the Bitmap Bureau Store (currently excluding the United States).
