Play smart and hit hard to win in this action-packed turn-based strategy game, launching May 2 on PC
THE HAGUE, The Netherlands – April 11, 2023 – Good Shepherd Entertainment and Artificer have released a new gameplay overview trailer for Showgunners, the turn-based strategy game set on a blockbuster reality TV show in a dystopian future. You’ll get the full breakdown on what it takes to survive hellish obstacle courses, ambushes and challenges to the delight of the fans in this over-the-top tribute to action classics like American Gladiators, RoboCop and The Running Man.
Whether you’re competing for money, fame or revenge, you’ll need every advantage to win against Showgunners’ fierce opponents. Use your squad’s unique abilities to gain an edge: swap places with enemies as Tybalt, overwhelm foes with Warden’s robotic strength, and find the perfect sniping position with Phantom’s cloak. But combat’s not the only thing that matters – the best champs know how to win the love of the fans with exceptional plays, earning better rewards to use in the heat of the action.
You’ll need both brawn and brains, too, thanks to dynamic puzzles and lethal traps in each unique level. And remember to watch out for surprise twists from the show’s director, who’s more than willing to throw out the rules to boost ratings for his corporate overlords!
Showgunners will debut on May 2, 2023, on PC via Steam and GOG.com and is available to wishlist now. For more on the game, visit www.showgunners.com, and follow the latest updates on Discord.
