This trailer for Huntdown is worth watching and rewatching just for the gloriously cheesy narration.
Amazing bounty hunter names, ridiculous characterizations, so-cringey-it’s-amazing descriptions, punny bad guy gangs, and all the arcade nostalgia you’ll need.
It’s a rare occasion when I laugh out loud watching a game trailer, but Huntdown got me today.
You can play solo or co-op as bounty hunters in a game that makes you “run, jump, and take cover in the neon-soaked, graffiti-strewn ‘80s inspired cityscapes.”
Huntdown features hand-painted 16-bit pixel art graphics and hand-drawn animations. So it looks beautiful, but the arcade throwback also has 60fps gameplay for the modern-day gamer.
The game launches on May 12th, 2020 for the Nintendo Switch, Playstation 4, Xbox One, and PC via Epic Games Store. Pre-orders are open now.
