London, UK - September 05, 2024: Get ready to load up and roll out! Super Rare Games and Whale Peak Games’ asymmetric arcade-style twin stick shooter Go Mecha Ball is making its way to PlayStation 4/5 and Nintendo Switch on September 26!

PlayStation 4/5 and Nintendo Switch players are just weeks away from experiencing the game described as “delightfully refreshing, fast-paced and great-looking" upon its release on PC and Xbox earlier this year. Or as GameRant puts it, "There's simply nothing quite like Go Mecha Ball out there, and it deserves to be experienced.”

Marrying roguelite elements with bouncy pinball-inspired physics, Go Mecha Ball brings players on an adrenaline-fueled journey through dynamic and varied playgrounds, where they’ll face off against rogue AI in aa futuristic, bouncy showdown against rogue AI. The critically-acclaimed title offers neon-lit backdrops and colourful 3D platforms, setting the stage for energetic twin-stick shooter combat, acrobatic manoeuvres and wacky strategies. Players can ricochet off lively bumpers, soar into the sky above giant fans, or boost their way up ramps, creating unique and kinetic movement.

 

Players can deploy the might of four individual gun-toting mechs, each boasting a distinct arsenal of weapons, abilities, and upgrades that can be incorporated between runs, fostering roguelike progression through vibrant and exhilarating levels. Employ a variety of over 25 tools designed for mass destruction, and discover how more than 20 quirky abilities personalise the experience of each fun and frenzied robot shooting escapade. Backed by a unique and interactive soundtrack, the chaos is heightened with each gunshot, impact and interaction reflected in an immersive and exciting symphony for each player.

 

Features: 

 

  • Action-packed twin-stick shooter with arcade roguelite elements

  • Experience the dual gameplay of walking and shooting as a mech, or rolling and bumping as a ball

  • Navigate dynamic arena playgrounds with a mix of rolling, bouncing, leaping, and bounding

  • Conquer four diverse worlds filled with unique enemies and obstacles

  • Arm yourself with a versatile arsenal of over 25 destructive tools

  • Unleash over 20 quirky and devastating abilities to dominate your foes

  • Enhance your mechs with a vast array of more than 50 upgrades, creating a truly personalised combat experience.

Their work can be found in games like Cult of the Lamb, Death’s Door, Noita, Downwell, Nuclear Throne, Alice: Madness Returns, League of Legends and the Steamworld series. No-one knows what they might do next: They might disband back to their respective dark corners of the internet, or they might very well usher in a new era of indie game development. Only time will tell.
