If you keep an ear to the PC ground, then you will no doubt know all about Redeemer. Well very soon you will be able to forget about having to fire up the gaming laptop, as an Enhanced Edition of the brutal brawler Redeemer is coming to console!
Due to hit Xbox One, PS4 and Nintendo Switch in August 2018, Redeemer: Enhanced Edition from BUKA Entertainment and Sobaka Studio is an intense modern day take on the brawling genre, letting you punch, hack, and blast your way through enemies using fists, hammers, firearms, and the environment itself.
Having previously released on Steam, Redeemer received an overwhelming amount of feedback due to its charismatic protagonist and vigorous bloody gameplay, and that is exactly what we want to see when the game drops on to consoles.
But things will be different and the development team have listened to the community’s input and added local co-op, new character classes (Monk and Soldier) as well as other tweaks like the improvement of some levels’ balance.
Features to look out for include:
- Intense Top Down Action: Take out enemies in every way possible!
- Brutal Hand-to-Hand Combat: Collection of brutal fighting moves, combos, charge and jump attacks.
- Character class selection: Choose whether Vasily is a monk or a soldier, depending on your preferred combat style.
- Unique Kill System: Use your surroundings to stealthy eliminate your enemies.
- Parry System: Block the hits and learn enemy movements and attack patterns to create a ballet of death for them.
- Disarm-or-Dismember System: Disarm your foes and use their limbs as melee weapons.
- Story Driven Single-Player: Discover Vasily’s haunted past and experience a narrative journey of betrayal and redemption.
- Arena Mode: Practice and test your fighting skills by battling countless enemies in a horde-like arena mode.
- Cooperative game mode for two players. Walk through the game alongside your friend and may your gamepads be the ultimate weapons of retribution!
