GungHo Online Entertainment Dishes Out Game Show-style Survival In Deathverse: Let It Die

Need another arena battler with gratuitously bloody action and over-the-top characters? If so, then GungHo Online Entertainment and Supertrick Games are prepping Deathverse: Let It Die for launch on the PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5 next year. Deathverse offers melee-focused PvPvE combat in a brutal battle arena where you'll not only have to triumph over your enemies but also look good doing it to draw fans and become a superstar.

Deathverse is set two hundred years after Let It Die, a free-to-play game from GungHo that released in 2018 and was not warmly received. The new game is based around a show called "Death Jamboree" whose "past is steeped in mystery and led by a cabal of shadowy figures."

The island the action takes place on is covered in SPLithium, an energy source that caused mutated creatures to spawn, which increase in number as the match goes on. Also joining the fray in the game's late stages are "Hunters," nigh-invincible foes that are probably better avoided that confronted.

You'll have at your disposal Wilson, who isn't a volleyball but a robotic pal that can transform into various weapons, deploy shields, activate skills, and more. Wilson can learn more tricks as you progress and upgrade him.

Deathverse: Let It Die is set for a launch sometime in 2022. Learn more about the game on its website.
