Finally, We Can Hold This Retro FPS in Our Hands
Project Warlock is the story of one man, his magical powers, and many, many weapons on their quest to take the earth back from demons. It’s some classic retro FPS action, and needless to say, we’re big fans. With this kind of intro, you’ve probably already guessed that we’re excited about the game’s upcoming physical release, and you’d be absolutely right to do so. Project Warlock is getting a physical edition for the Nintendo Switch and we’re thrilled. If you’re a fan of old-school action, stylized graphics straight out of the PS1 era, and slick combat reminiscent of DOOM, then you should check this game out, too. As the Warlock says in this trailer, “Let’s walk into Hell, you and I.”
If you like Doom, Hexen, and Wolfenstein, give this title a shot. You won’t regret it. How could you, when the game features include:
? One man and his guns – Become a mysterious Warlock who embarks on a dangerous mission to eradicate all evil. Put your finger on the trigger and travel through time and space to wreak havoc like in the golden days of fast-paced, adrenaline-pumping first person shooters, hooking you for hours of super fun carnage. Let’s rock and roll!
? 60 Levels, 50 Worlds, 72 Enemies, 38 Weapons – Explore 60 vast levels in five settings, from frozen Antarctic base to the sands of Egypt to the medieval castles’ courts and graveyards. Find keys to unlock passages, reveal secret caches with ammo and gold, use lifts and hidden buttons to access new areas. Finally, descend to hell to face the ultimate challenge and emerge victorious.
? Blood-pumping action – Combat tons of enemies from flying demons to five-storeys robots, splashing walls and floors with their blood and chunks. Dodge bullets and projectiles, figure out strategies and weapons that work best against each of the nasty villains. Learn their moves and stay one step ahead to survive through the levels. Face megabosses in vast final arenas to complete each world.
? A demon-busting arsenal – Expand your arsenal with new weapons found along your way. From powerful blades to massive guns, collect and develop your favourite gear and master the craft of carnage. Reach into vast arsenal of 38 types of weapons and learn their secret tricks to deliver maximum damage, fast! Grab ammo and spit out series of bullets, walls of flames, and bursts of magic shots to bring down enemies foolish enough to stand in your way.
? Become the warlock – Develop your hero the way you like, by assigning upgrade points and perks to the favourite skills between each level. Develop and upgrade spells and weapons to create your unique character through the game, and use their powers to master the game in higher difficulty modes.
Seriously, it’s a great blast from the past. Check it out.
Project Warlock is available on Xbox One, PS4, Nintendo Switch, and PC.
