소개
Strap in for a chaotic third-person action-adventure from the twisted mind of Suda51. You play as Romeo Stargazer, a conspiracy-obsessed deputy turned cyborg, slicing through time zones and crushing grotesque mutants to save the universe. Blending stylish hack-and-slash combat with ranged gunplay, this is a love letter to B-movies, punk aesthetics, and pure video game insanity.
스토리
After a fatal monster attack in Deadford, Pennsylvania, Romeo is resurrected by his time-traveling grandfather via the 'Dead Gear Life Support System.' Now a 'dead man who lives,' Romeo joins the space-time police aboard the spaceship 'Last Night.' The narrative unfolds through a wild mix of mediums—comic books, 80s text adventures, and music videos—as he jumps through history to stop interdimensional threats.
Gameplay
Master a deep hybrid combat system switching seamlessly between 'Spazer' melee weapons and firearms. Build your 'Bloody Summer' meter to unleash screen-nuke special attacks, or cultivate 'Bastards'—summonable minions grown from enemy seeds—to turn the tide of battle. When you fall, the unique 'Death Roulette' offers a chance to revive with powerful buffs, turning failure into a tactical advantage.
Key Features
- 1Hybrid Combat: Fluidly switch between 4 melee weapons and 4 guns.
- 2Bastards System: Collect seeds and grow summonable minions in your ship's garden.
- 3Bloody Summer: Fill the blood gauge to trigger devastating, cinematic special attacks.
- 4Death Roulette: Spin the wheel upon death for buffs, speed boosts, or revives.
- 5Mixed Media Narrative: Story told via comics, cartoons, and text adventures.
- 6Time Travel: Battle across distinct time zones and parallel 'subspace' realities.
- 7The Last Night Hub: Upgrade gear and chill on your spaceship base.
