The latest trailer for developer Sobaka Studio’s Redeemer is so heavy on gore and brutality that we’re tempted to immediately head over to Steam to pre-order the game so we can get in on some of the hardcore action ourselves.
Published by Gambitious Digital Entertainment, Redeemer puts you in control of Vasily, an elite cyborg soldier who has decided to abandon his violent ways and live a life of peace in a secluded mountain monastery. But because nothing good lasts forever, Vasily’s violent past soon catches up with him, thrusting him back into action.
You’ll have access to shotguns, sledgehammers, chainsaws, and a ton of other badass weapons. The game’s combat places a strong focus on gore mechanics, with some of the most unforgiving environmental kills imaginable. Holding an enemy face down against spinning helicopter rotor blades (at 0:59 below) is not an experience you’re likely to forget.
Redeemer launches on PC on August 1, although a console release has yet to be confirmed.
REDEEMER is an intense Brawler where you will punch, hack and blast your way through enemies using fists, hammers, fire arms and even the environment. It grabs the genre by the throat and drags it into 2017 in brutal style by adding a deep melee combat system and numerous unique types of kills. Redeemer is the brawler for those who love brawlers and have been waiting for a modern take on the genre!
Play as Vasily, an elite operative who once worked for one of the biggest Cybernetic Weapons Manufacturers in the world. Officially working in security, you were tasked with infiltration, assassination, extortion and even torture. When eventually the corporation decided to turn you into one of its cyborg soldiers, you manage to narrowly escape to a secluded monastery deep in the snowy mountains.
For 20 years you tried to find peace and harmony amongst your fellow monks, but you are still too haunted by your murderous past to find either. Now after all of these years the corporation is finally closing-in on your location, and in so doing they have given you one last shot at redemption.
