Set against the backdrop of a techno-futuristic world, players step into the boots of Ace, a renowned bounty hunter on the trail of the rogue robot Frazzer. Frazzer’s labyrinthine lair, with its constantly evolving challenges, requires more than just firepower to overcome. Success in this game is about rhythm and precision; every wall run, slide, and shot needs to be perfectly timed to the pulsating beats of an upbeat soundtrack that features an impressive 38 tracks.
Priced at $19.99, €19.49, and £16.99 on both Steam and Epic Games Store, ROBOBEAT invites players to an early bird offer with a 20% discount at launch. The music, a core part of the gaming experience, is separately available on Steam, allowing players to own the soundtrack and elevate their gameplay with every tune.
Further enhancing the gameplay are hidden treasures in the form of secret cassettes, including classic tracks from BPM: Bullets Per Minute and newly announced additions from DUSK and ULTRAKILL, awaiting discovery by keen players.
ROBOBEAT not only promises a test of skill through its charged shots, damage multipliers, and armor-piercing rounds but also extends an invitation to master the art of movement. Every double-jump, bunny hop, and grapple hook action isn’t just about transit but survival, ensuring players stay one step ahead of their enemies, all while fully immersed in the beat.
This breakthrough title is set to redefine expectations, merging the drive of rhythm-based gameplay with the raw adrenaline rush of a FPS. With customizable music features enabling players to upload and modify their tracks, the game ensures a personal touch to every round, making each playthrough unique.
