Join the Action Now in Mad King Redemption
Indie developer Secret Mission Games has officially launched its debut title, Mad King Redemption, into Early Access on Steam, with releases for the Epic Games Store and GOG planned for a later date. The retro-inspired roguelite brawler blends classic side-scrolling combat with modern design elements, offering fast-paced sessions, evolving progression systems, and both local and online co-op through Steam Remote Play.
Priced at $13.50 with a limited-time 10% launch discount, the game invites players to battle through two distinct biomes filled with relentless enemies and grotesque bosses. At the center of the experience is a dark narrative, where players tap into the same corrupted magic that drove the King into madness, turning it into a powerful gameplay mechanic.
Mad King Redemption draws heavy inspiration from the golden era of arcade beat-em-ups, channeling the spirit of iconic titles while introducing fresh systems tailored for modern audiences. One standout feature is the “Corruption” mechanic, which grants unique abilities that enhance combat strength and strategy. Combined with its striking 2D/3D pixel art style, the game delivers a visually nostalgic yet mechanically updated experience.
Designed for quick, high-energy play sessions, the game emphasizes accessibility without sacrificing depth. Whether playing solo or teaming up with friends, players can expect chaotic battles and rewarding progression in every run.
With its Early Access launch, Mad King Redemption sets the stage for further updates and refinements, offering a promising start for a title that aims to revive and modernize a beloved genre.
