Nightdive Studios :

No fools allowed! Yesterday, Nightdive Studios surprise announced PO'ed: Definitive Edition, an updated version of the classic 1995 adrenaline-pumping first-person space shooter coming soon to PC and consoles.  
 
🤌YES, IT’S REAL. DON'T JUST GET MAD, GET PO'ED! 👊

Inspired by generational powerhouses DOOM and QUAKE, the original PO'ed pushed first-person action games to new heights with its over-the-top, action-packed, fast-paced, explosive, ridiculous, bloody, smelly, scrumptious, adjective-filled, ultra-violent 3D gameplay. You play as a chef who crashes on an alien planet infested with extraterrestrial foes, using a menu of “household” weapons to deliver a dish best served cold (by dish, I mean revenge, just in case you were confused).

Nightdive Studios’ PO’ed: Definitive Edition spices up the classic 1995 shooter with updated visuals, antialiasing, increased framerate, redefined controls, and up to 4K 144 FPS performance. 

Your ship has been overrun by aliens. Your comrades-in-arms have been annihilated, and your soufflé has been ruined! What do you do? Grab your jetpack and rocket launcher, and fry those suckers! PO'ed features 16 of the baddest, maddest, and most unattractive monsters in the galaxy. Rock-throwing ogres, plasma-shooting robots, giant bats ... and walking butts! 
 
🍳BON APPÉTIT, *****! 💣

PO’ed: Definitive Edition Key Features:

  • A plate full of quality-of-life features to enhance the gameplay and fix bugs present in the original game (which can be toggled off)

  • Wet your whistle with widescreen support for the HUD and other on-screen graphics

  • A new delicious difficulty mode has been added for hardcore players

  • 15 appetizing achievements

  • A dash of localization support for English, French, Italian, German, and Spanish

  • Total freedom! Cruise on foot or fly with your jetpack through 25 wild 3D environments


PO'ed: Definitive Edition release for Windows PC via Steam and GOG, PlayStation 4|5, Xbox One and Series X|S, and Nintendo Switch in the very near future. Chefs can wishlist the game on Steam today at https://store.steampowered.com/app/2697470/POed_Definitive_Edition
