A tag-team brawler RPG, Dungeon Punks from Hyper Awesome Entertainment is releasing on July 26 for PlayStation 4 and Xbox One, August 16 for PlayStation Vita, and this summer for PC. Priced at $14.99, it will include cross-buy on PS4 and PS Vita.
Offering one to three player local co-op, and a tag-team combat system that lets you play as two characters and chain combos, Dungeon Punks includes 12 levels where you’ll fight bosses, collect loot, and fight with your friends over who gets to ride the laser-blasting unicorn. You’ll also find upgradeable moves, hidden power-ups and mounts, and rare equipment.
Here’s the full description:
Dungeon Punks is a multiplayer arcade style brawler and role-playing game with a unique tag-team fighting system, set in a fantasy world of magic, mystery, and corporate greed. Recruit a crew of six mutant heroes who will blast your enemies senseless with their crazy magical spells and combo attacks. Real-time party play allows you to take control of any of the heroes fighting alongside you at any time. And even better, you can have a buddy or two tap in and join you on your adventure! The action is fast, the spells are furious, and total mayhem is bound to break loose every time you play.
