Throw in the usual easy-to-learn gameplay that scales seamlessly from beginner to super mega levels of difficulty, and it seems like Metalhead could once again be on to a winner.
“This is the most well-rounded experience we’ve put together yet with a lot of content and a good variety of modes that cover single player and online gameplay,” said Metalhead co-founder Scott Drader. “We’ve kept it simple – one purchase gets you the whole package and there are no in-game purchases.”
