Taking inspiration from sci-fi classics such as RoboCop, Escape from New York and The Running Man, with a dash of American Gladiators-style action and attitude, Homicidal All-Stars will have a free demo playable as part of the Steam Next Fest from October 3-10. Check out the new trailer for the game:
The turn-based strategy game by Warsaw-based developer Artificer is set on a sensational reality game show in a dystopian future where society is torn apart by extreme income inequality, climate change and civil unrest. In this future, Homicidal All-Stars is a hugely popular bloodsport where hopefuls compete to survive in deadly urban arenas packed with lethal hazards and heavily armed combatants.
Every broadcast delivers a hellish new obstacle course with a distinct theme and challenges – outwit traps and ambushes, explore for helpful sponsorship packages, and be on guard for especially devious surprises from the show’s director!
Players get to dive into a full single-player campaign featuring deep tactical combat mechanics that will test their skills across a variety of hand-crafted levels. Teams can be built up from a range of classes with their own skill trees and customize their loadouts with powerful weapons, implants and utilities.
Homicidal All-Stars is available to wishlist now on Steam and Gog.com.
