Alright, buckle up buttercups, because things are about to get weird (and probably break). Sir Whoopass, the absurdly over-the-top action RPG that definitely doesn’t take itself too seriously, has officially crash-landed onto Xbox Series X|S and PlayStation 5.
Forget your stoic heroes and grimdark prophecies. Developed by the appropriately named Atomic Elbow and published by Aurora Punks, this game is all about chaotic fun, fourth-wall shattering jokes, and a hero who seems to create as many problems as he solves.
Already boasting a “Very Positive” rating on Steam from PC players who clearly enjoy a bit of madness, console gamers can now join the fray for a launch price of £14.99.
So, Who is Sir Whoopass?
Meet Sir Whoopass. He’s valiant! He has a heart of gold! He’s also… well, let’s just say he’s the accidental architect of absolute anarchy in a world that was doing just fine before he showed up.
Thanks to a series of hilarious and frankly baffling life choices, Sir Whoopass has unleashed chaos and now he’s the one who has to clean it up by finding The Legendary Villain-Beating Artifact and knocking his arch-nemesis ‘The Immortal’ into next Tuesday.
What could possibly go wrong? (Spoiler: Probably everything).
Hacking, Slashing, and Probably Exploding Cheese
This is an action RPG that leans heavily into glorious, nonsensical hack-and-slash mayhem. Get ready to swing, slam, and possibly sizzle your way through hordes of orcs, skeletons, trolls, and other delightfully daft baddies.
The combat embraces absurdity – forget just swords and shields, you might find yourself wielding magical wands imbued with the power of “a slight pandemic cough.”
Your quest will take you through a bizarrely satirical open world, from enchanted forests and grimy sewers to floating dungeons and even suspiciously cheese-filled caves. The world is packed with quirky side quests, mini-games, and tongue-in-cheek challenges that reward a good sense of humour (and maybe a high tolerance for dad jokes).
You can fully customise Sir Whoopass with a vast collection of skins, hats, and weapons ranging from the genuinely useful to the utterly ridiculous. Oh, and did we mention the online co-op? Grab your most valiant (or equally ridiculous) friends and slay in style together!
The whole experience is glued together with dynamic animations, absurd physics, and a narrator who seems only vaguely interested in sticking to the script, frequently breaking the fourth wall to join in the fun. It’s old-school hack-and-slash meets a very modern dose of glorious irreverence.
Console Comforts & Extra Threads
The console versions arrive with native gamepad support designed for smooth controls, alongside full achievement integration for trophy hunters and Gamerscore fanatics.
And if you want to look extra fetching while causing chaos, the Sir Whoopass: Threads of Mass Whoopery Skin Pack DLC is also available, letting you dress your hero in everything from majestic armour to bizarre meme-worthy outfits.

Sir Whoopass Description
Many are the tales of heroism and grandeur, of saving the princess and being rewarded her hand and half the kingdom in marriage. This is not one of them.
