Devolver Digital has announced a new first-person co-op shooter, Mycopunk, coming to early access on Steam later in 2025, with a demo out now.
The description says: “Your ragtag gang of robot rejects have been hired by the universal megacorp SAXON for one last shot at profitable glory (and avoiding the scrap heap). You are the New Atlas Hazard Crew, a ramshackle squad of exterminators sent to uncover the mysteries behind a planet-wide fungal catastrophe.”
Here’s the key features for the game:
- Embark on a series of dangerous planet-side missions to drive back the mycological menace. Could this be a simple natural disaster like they claim? And did SAXON really misfile your taxes? Or was that your own fault? Who cares? You’re underpaid, over-armed, and ready to clean house.
- Choose from an outrageous arsenal of advanced futuristic weaponry (and some power tools), then supercharge them in a one-of-a-kind grid-based upgrade system to create the ridiculous sci-fi super-weapon of your dreams.
- Slaughter hordes of enemies as they corrupt and weaponise the planet’s technology against you. Pick crawlies apart piece by piece — but be wary, whatever they drop could be grabbed up by another enemy.
- Alone, these rickety robots aren’t up to much, but together they become more than the sum of their parts. Combine upgraded abilities and customised weapons to create synergistic builds and achieve strategic co-op mayhem. Or just shoot each other.
- Let off steam between missions in an orbital dropship packed with toys and games. Hang out with your friends, uncover more about the galaxy, and shoot the breeze with the insectoid SAXON veteran Roachard Cox.
Mycopunk is coming to PC early access later this year.
