The story of Too Human is an interesting one. The game began development way back in 1999, and bumped around to multiple different publishers and systems for almost an entire decade until finally releasing in 2008 for the Xbox 360. The game was ultimately a flop, but would also get tied up in a lawsuit that would see it delisted, and would then reappear with no announcement or fanfare years later. Now, you can also get it for free.
You can see the listing in the Microsoft store for the game here. While not a particularly great game, it’s an interesting one to revisit, because it has a Norse mythology inspiration, which is all the rage right now, and also had a big focus on loot, something that was rare for a single player title at the time but now extremely common.
Technically, Too Human is a Xbox 360 game, but it has been added to the Xbox One backwards compatibility list, so it will be playable on any 360 or One hardware. It’s unclear if this is the standard price now or just for a limited time.
