Twitter user h0x0d drew everyone’s attention to the listing for a beta for Crossfire X which has popped up on the Microsoft Store. The listing states that the beta is set to go live on June 25, and it will be Xbox One X Enhanced at an approximate size of 5.88GB. Now, neither Smilegate nor Microsoft have made mention of a Crossfire X beta, so we have to hold our horses for now.
Crossfire is one of the most successful games in the world, with 650 million players from around the world and generating over $10 billion in lifetime revenue. A remake and a sequel, titled Crossfire HD and Crossfire 2 respectively, are in the works, and Smilegate has enlisted Remedy Entertainment for the games’ single-player campaigns.
Crossfire X will launch for Xbox One in 2020.
