Hellpoint, a souls-like RPG with a sci-fi setting, has announced that it will be heading to the Nintendo Switch and PlayStation 4 in November!
Merge Games has teamed up with US-based publisher tinyBuild Games to bring the anticipated action RPG to consoles.
Hellpoint is a dark sci-fi RPG set on a derelict space station orbiting a black hole in the aftermath of a massive quantum cataclysm called the Merge. Players wake up on the Irid Novo space station, which once served as a hub for exploration and galactic cooperation but has since gone horribly awry.
The game draws heavy inspiration from both the Dark Souls and Dead Space series and features co-op multiplayer – both split-screen and online. Players will have to fight their way through a haunting story involving Cosmic Gods, extinct civilizations, and quantum physics.
A few screenshots of Hellpoint in action and how the co-op (both couch and online) will look:
Key Features:
- Souls-like gamplay in a unique setting: Explore the derelict space station of Irid Novo and face bizarre enemies with a tight and unforgiving combat system.
- Occult space story: Blending science and fantasy, the intensely atmospheric dark sci-fi setting will keep you searching for answers.
- Dynamic World: The Quantic System acts as a dungeon master, slightly transforming the game world every time you die and triggering events as the station revolves around the black hole.
- Jump-in co-op and PvP multiplayer: Ask a friend to press start to join a couch co-op session or call for assistance online. Hellpoint offers a full, uninterrupted co-op story with shared loot drops.
