LONDON, ON. – Dec. 9, 2021 – Power Chord, the deck building roguelike videogame with a killer rock demon aesthetic, revealed the newest musician joining the fight today during The MIX Picks 2021 as part of Twitch’s The Winter Gathering.
 
Roxy Cleaver, the second drummer to join the ranks, is a champion of the arena who puts the rock in rock and roll. The riot gladiator’s specialty lies in the creation of stone charges which can be used to either shield the band from demonic attacks or unleashed for massive damage. Big Blue Bubble Producer Jamie Boylan delves deeper into Power Chord and showcases the first-ever gameplay of Roxy Cleaver in The MIX’s video here: https://youtu.be/_SPqRQL-RBg
 
In Power Chord, earth’s mightiest musicians will assemble to utilize their unique abilities to rock out insane combos against the demonic horde. With each bandmate having their own distinct gameplay style, cards and perks, Power Chord allows players to create unique combos based on different band combinations. Bands will consist of four musicians with their own color-coded cards, including:

  • Drummer – Blue cards. Drummers are the “tank” of the band and can defend using armor, redirect damage and retaliate based on damage taken.

  • Guitarist – Red cards. Guitarists can dish out serious single-target damage by hyping themselves up.

  • Bassist – Purple Cards. Raining down Area of Effect damage, Bassists can attack multiple targets and apply/remove debuffs from their bandmates and enemies.

  • Vocalist – Yellow cards. The support and healer of the band, vocalists focus on healing, cleansing debuffs and buffing up the band.

 
Interested gamers can be among the first to play the game by playing the demo available currently on Steam.
