Fast-paced roguelike action game KIBORG will launch for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC via Steam on April 30 for $29.99, developer Sobaka Studio announced. Xbox pre-orders are available now via Microsoft Store.
“After spending several years developing KIBORG, and the dramatic change we made after we saw the reception to KIBORG: Arena, it feels relieving to announce next month’s launch,” said Sobaka Studio head Dmitry Kachkov in a press release. “Can you make it out of The Last Ticket alive?”
Here is an overview of the game, via Sobaka Studio:
Morgan Lee has been accused of war crimes he didn’t commit and sentenced to a 1,300-year sentence on the galaxy’s worst prison planet with no hope of parole. Death provides no escape, as his jailors will keep reviving him until he serves every last second. But one way out does exist: win on Cable Galactica’s hottest game show, “The Last Ticket.”
Starting off with just melee attacks, brutalize waves of foes with kicks and punches, eventually earning ranged weapons like simple pistols up to assault rifles and futuristic firearms that can pack a punch from a distance. Roll to dodge attacks, or use carefully-timed blocks to deflect enemy attacks, just don’t run out of energy.
The Last Ticket’s grotesque host Volkov may be a monster, but he likes entertainment, so Morgan has access to cybernetic implants that increase the strength of his melee attacks, enable literally bone-crushing combos, and enable the usage of giant sledgehammers. What’s a cybernetic upgrade without the ability to unleash special powers like rocket-propelled dash punches and electric shockwaves?
Reviving Morgan after each run will prove to be Volkov’s gravest mistake, as the currency earned each run can go toward permanent unlocks, giving Morgan more and more advantages as he seeks freedom, no matter what it may cost him along the way.
