Update News
Death Squared Coming to PS4 Q1 2017
SYDNEY - Dec. 13, in the year of our Lord 2016 - Death
Squared, a cooperative puzzle game where players guide
defenseless robots through a series of mazes filled with deadly
traps, will come to PlayStation 4 in Q1 2017 simultaneously
alongside the previously-announced Xbox One and PC versions.
The PlayStation 4 version will receive exclusive levels, robot
skins and silly controller features to distinguish itself from
the Xbox One release, which will have exclusive levels of its
own.
Danger lurks around every corner in Death Squared's series of
intricate puzzles. Teams of two or four simultaneously and
individually guide robots to their respective color-coded
waypoints, and all must reach the end for the group to achieve
victory.
At its core, Death Squared is about communication and
experimentation. One false move can trigger hidden hazards and
the fun is learning each stage's "rules" through trial, error
and cooperation. Instantaneous respawns help players put
newly-gained knowledge about a level's pitfalls to quick use.
With an emphasis on teamwork, Death Squared is best enjoyed as a
multiplayer experience. Solo players and parties of two can play
through the story mode, while more chaotic stages await groups
of four with specially-designed "party chaos" challenges unseen
in the main campaign.
Death Squared will be at RTX Sydney for hands-on sessions with
all-new stages. The game will also be playable at PAX South,
where SMG Studio will debut PlayStation 4 and Xbox One-exclusive
levels, as well as story sequences featuring the vocal talents
of Mick Lauer.
