Get ready to light the fuse with Anarkade, the explosive multiplayer arena shooter from Pixelatom and Blowfish Studios, coming to Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4|5, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, and PC/Mac via Steam on Monday, September 23, 2024.
Anarkade is a wild mashup of 2D platforming and chaotic shooting, perfect for those who crave fast-paced multiplayer mayhem. Whether you’re teaming up with friends locally or diving into cross-platform online battles, each round kicks off with a random weapon in a procedurally-generated arena. It’s a frantic scramble as you race to grab loot crates, master wall jumps, and execute corner hangs to outmaneuver your enemies and deliver devastating blows.
Arm yourself with an arsenal of deadly weapons like the Python revolver or the gatling gun. Or, if you’re feeling cheeky, bring a knife to a gunfight and watch your opponents regret not taking their shot. The iconic Bowling Bomb rolls through with a path of destruction that leaves no one standing, turning your foes into sitting ducks.
Battle it out across six unique stage themes, each offering its own quirky physics and environmental challenges. Slip and slide in icy arenas or float in low-gravity space stages—every map demands a new strategy. And with a variety of fun hats, costumes, and hilariously over-the-top death animations, you’ll be fighting in style while making your enemies look like clowns.
Dive into single match or tournament-style local modes, earning points by fragging foes in Deathmatch or snatching up crates in Cratebox. Take the fight online, where you can challenge global players in quickplay or create custom rooms for some long-distance trash talk with friends.
Anarkade is all about fun, fast-paced action,
says Javier Arias, Founder and Lead Developer at Pixelatom. “We’ve blended platforming, shooting, and unpredictable scenarios into a dynamic experience that keeps players coming back for more.”
Mark your calendars for September 23, 2024, when Anarkade drops on all major platforms with full language support, including English, Spanish, Portuguese, French, German, and Russian.
