Sony Exclusive Guacamelee! Announced

Sony Exclusive Guacamelee! Announced

None

With the help of the PlayStation Pub Fund program (Sony’s injection of millions into innovative indie games for their platforms), DrinkBox has announced a co-op multiplayer “dimension-swapping Metroid-vania” beat-em-up platformer entitled Guacamelee!

While I don’t typically admire any game that has an exclamation mark in its title, this may be an exception considering its intriguing premise. Instilled with a Mexican theme, Guacamelee! will be releasing on the PlayStation Network and PlayStation Vita.



The game’s protagonist is an unlucky farmer, Juan Aguacate, who wants to “save the world” when the president’s daughter is kidnapped. The game’s setting is situated around a small village in Mexico, with the player traveling through “The World of the Living,” as well as “The World of the Dead” to rescue his love.

More gameplay of Guacamelee! will be shown during E3.
