Indie developers Heart Core have announced their next game, Gripper. This story-driven title brings the unlikely gameplay of boss-battle action combat while on your futuristic cyber-bike. The action game on wheels, featuring furious, dark synth tracks, emotionally charged storytelling, and an explosive cyberpunk setting that is sure to excite and delight, was created by a talented development team whose credits include Assassin's Creed Valhalla and Rainbow Six Siege.
Players enter the burnout seat as None, a cyber biker who is stuck inside a collapsing world. Long separated from his parents, None is jolted back into their lives and forced to save the world from the AI known as Zero. To do so he must race through post-apocalyptic landscapes connected by treacherous tunnels, explore dead lands with the help of his mechanized cat buddy Cat-Kit, and ultimately defeat relentless bosses by gripping and ripping out their hearts.
Gripper is set to launch sometime in early 2023 on PC via Steam and Nintendo Switch. What do you think of this somewhat strange, but rather interesting title?
