Sharpen your sword and stock up on ammo, because Indie publisher Retroware and Zenovia Interactive’s scorching-hot cyberpunk run-and-gun, Neon Inferno, is now available to download on all major platforms.
“Time is never so slow as the hours and the days before a launch. For almost four years we've been building a beautiful ship by hand, piece after piece. Now the ship finally leaves its harbor, and we see how far she can sail,” said Zenovia Interactive co-founder Sri Kankanahalli.
“I'm incredibly proud of what our team accomplished with Neon Inferno, and I'm excited to see all of you discover it for yourselves,” Kankanahalli continued. “I hope you enjoy playing this game as much as we enjoyed creating it.”
Neon Inferno is a stylish cyberpunk run-and-gun shooter from the creator of 2021’s Steel Assault. Going lone wolf or guns blazing with a partner in the game’s co-op mode, players assume the role of either Angelo or Mariana as they fight for a fledgling crime family striving for power against a corrupt NYPD and other crime syndicates in the war-torn city.
The deadly pair of syndicate assassins will need to fight their way through an army of heavily-armed cops, trained killers, and mechanized monstrosities. Thankfully, they have a few tricks up their sleeves, including bullet time, which allows them to deflect certain projectiles back at enemies they choose—regardless of whether they’re in the foreground or background!
With multiple upgrades available to unlock and equip between missions, various difficulties to master, an Arcade Mode, and two-player co-op, Neon Inferno offers a full clip of content to blast their way through
