Mirror’s Edge? Or Hirilun on Xbox?

Are you ready to explore the competition of Hirilun? This monochrome Mirror’s Edge wannabe has released on Xbox, PlayStation and Nintendo Switch. 

Available right now on the usual digital stores, Hirilun could well drum up some memories. You remember those better times, when Mirror’s Edge was dominating the first person parkour scene? Well, this is looking to embrace those days, delivering an explorative, competitive take on roof traversal. 

A monochrome Mirror’s Edge

Running as a time-trialling first person platformer, Hirilun is from that Ratalaika Games team who continue to pile us with great little indie games. Created by Gone Mad Studios and priced at a mere £9.99, Hirilun will see you trying to navigate your way across the city of shadows. It’s this which is portrayed in a black and white, monochromed style, splattered with power-ups to help you on your way. 

Frankly, we’re right on board with what is on offer in Hirilun. If only as we’re big fans of Mirror’s Edge (maybe not the failure of Mirror’s Edge Catalyst) and the parkouring fun that used to be able to deliver. Running, jumping and gliding in this one, clambouring high on leaderboards as we go seems extremely appealing. Stick around for our review thoughts once we’ve gotten the hang of things… 

With six maps making up Hirilun, and non-linear pathways present, if it is parkouring, speed and challenge you want in your life, we think you should be getting a download moving right now.

Hirilun on Xbox Game Description

Welcome to Hirilun, also known as the city of shadows where only the fleet of foot can rise to fame. In this mysterious environment you’ll race against the clock to reach your goal.

Every level presents a new challenge with multiple paths to choose from, so it’s up to you to decide which route is the fastest. Dash, sprint, and glide through the city, but use these abilities wisely, as they are limited.

Watch out for power-ups scattered throughout the city – they may just give you the boost you need.
