If you’re the sort of Xbox player who likes the idea of five games for less than the price of a takeaway coffee, 5 in 1 Arcade Vault is certainly making its pitch.

The latest collection from Xitilon has arrived on Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S and Windows PC for £4.19, bringing five small arcade experiences together under one roof.

Xitilon has already made something of a habit of these multi-game packages through its One Button Games 5-in-1 collections, but this time the games aren’t being built around a single-button gimmick. Instead, 5 in 1 Arcade Vault throws several different ideas into the same cabinet and asks you to see which ones stick.

At A Glance

  • Game: 5 in 1 Arcade Vault
  • Formats: Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, Windows PC
  • Price: £4.19
  • Publisher: Xitilon
  • Developer: Neverliss
  • Genre: Arcade Collection

Five Games, Five Ways To Chase A High Score

The collection covers a fair bit of ground for such a compact package. One game has you hunting monsters, another sends you searching for a legendary golden fish, while the others focus on reflexes, concentration and quick-fire arcade challenges.

That variety is the main selling point. Each game has its own visual identity and gameplay approach, with short sessions making it easy to jump in for a few minutes and then have another go when you’re convinced you can do better.

The familiar arcade loop is present throughout – learn what the game wants from you, work out how to play it efficiently, and then chase a better result. It’s a simple formula, but one that can be surprisingly difficult to put down when a previous attempt has fallen just short.

We’ve Already Played The Collection

There’s a slight wrinkle, however, because we have already put 5 in 1 Arcade Vault through its paces.

Our 2.5/5 review found the collection to be rather inconsistent. And reviewing each game as an individual entity, we found Circle Defense came out comfortably on top with a 3.5/5, proving to be the one game that offered some genuine arcade fun, while Bubble Fish and Tom4to both scored 1.5/5. Garden Catcher managed 3/5 and Holly’s Hunt 2.5/5.

The biggest problem? The five games don’t provide enough depth or replay incentive to make the collection particularly compelling.

That makes 5 in 1 Arcade Vault an interesting addition to Xitilon’s growing collection of compact arcade packages. At £4.19, it certainly doesn’t require a huge investment to take a look, and there are five different ideas waiting to be tested. Whether any of them keeps you coming back after that first session, though, is another question entirely.

You’ll find 5 in 1 Arcade Vault on the Xbox Store in three versions. There’s an Xbox Series X|S optimised edition, another that plays nicely on Xbox One, and then a version for Windows PC. Pick the one that is best suited to your needs.
