On June 28, 2024, Xbox will release an exclusive trailer celebrating the 20-year journey of Aurion Legacy of the Kori-Odan on Xbox Series X|S and Xbox One consoles. The game, developed by Kiroo Games, was once an amateur project on RPG Maker and has evolved into a beautifully designed indie game. Aurion is the first console game ever released by a black-owned studio in Africa. The game features fast-paced real-time combat inspired by the Tales-Of series and a mature, cliché-free storyline about the challenges of remaining altruistic in a cynical world.

Aurion's development was not without its challenges. When Kiroo Games was starting, the studio had to reassure partners and investors of its ability to create a game in Africa, as none of the team members had professional training. However, the team's determination and passion for gaming led to the creation of Aurion, a game that covers profound subjects with endearing characters.

The game's creators hope that Aurion will inspire altruists and idealists around the world. They believe that the game's message of determination and hope in the face of adversity is particularly relevant today, as many people are going through difficult times.

Aurion Legacy of the Kori-Odan is available for pre-order on the Xbox Store. The game's trailers, pictures, and visual assets can be found on the Xbox website and various Google Drive links. The AurionVerse website provides more information about the game and its development.
