Maximum Entertainment :

Walnut Creek, CA (July 18, 2024) – Developer and global publisher Maximum Entertainment today announced a new character joining the fight in Diesel Legacy: The Brazen Age, the 2v2 co-op fighting game releasing later this year: Damkina, a cat-scratching, high heel-wearing goddess of the Silver Screen. Additionally, a second new character named Saga was teased in today’s all-new trailer. Watch now: https://youtu.be/exuuev5LIxU

According to rumors, Damkina's origins are ancient and obscure. Some speculate that she is much older than she appears, suggesting a connection to a bygone era or perhaps even mythical origins. The tabloids and conspiracy theorists thrive on such ambiguity, weaving tales of her supernatural longevity. In confrontations, Damkina relies not only on her formidable personality but on her physical prowess and fearsome fighting style. She also possesses what some believe to be a magical jewel known as the Eye of Sēth. This artifact is more than just a prop; it holds significant power, although its true nature and abilities remain enigmatic. Players attending this weekend’s Evo fighting game tournament in Las Vegas can try out Damkina’s powerful combos from Friday, July 19 through Sunday, July 21.

A sneak peek into the next full reveal, Saga, was also teased today. A towering giant with a jovial smile, her massive frame and power-lifting strength make her a force to be reckoned with in any combat situation. Raised by her adoptive circus family, Saga can bend steel rebar like a swizzle stick, so imagine what she can do to you. More information about Saga and the remaining cast of Diesel Legacy characters will be shared soon.

Diesel Legacy: The Brazen Age takes the classic fighting game formula and flips it on its head by placing 2v2 local and online co-op matches front and center in the arena. The game features distinctly unique playable characters, multiple varied stages and an innovative three-lane system, offering several methods of attack for each team all against a hand-drawn Dieselpunk backdrop.

Thanks to RealMatch™ rollback netcode, matches are virtually lag-free, making each punch feel seamless in each online match. Diesel Legacy: The Brazen Age also features a comprehensive training and story mode for players to refine their skills against AI opponents.

Diesel Legacy: The Brazen Age will launch on PC, PlayStation® 5, Xbox Series X|S and Nintendo Switch later this year.
