Taking aim at Switch next week
The Polish duo of Untold Tales and Crank Goblin have announced Son of a Gun, a retro-inspired twin-stick shooter, harkening back to 80s run-and-gun classics like Contra, Alien Syndrome, and Dogs of War. Son of a Gun will debut on Nintendo Switch on October 11th, 2024.
Son of a Gun is an intense action packed top down shooter full of bullets, blood and explosions. Collect and manage your guns and grenades to fight swarming bugs, gigantic robots, slimy monsters and even space ghosts. Select one of 6 characters and upgrade them while progressing through the single player campaign. Overwhelming enemies can be sometimes dealt with by the prototype time-bending device.
You are Son of a Gun - an interplanetary mercenary working for the Sons of a Gun organization. You’re called always when firepower matters and something needs to be solved by force. While being on a vacation on a tropical planet you’re just received a phone call from the SOAG Command Center…
You’ll have plenty of guns in 7 different classes at your disposal. Grab pistols, shotguns, SMG’s, rifles, plasma guns, sniper rifles, or rocket launchers - you’re defining your own playstyle. Don’t forget about grenades - gear up with your favorite grenade type - cluster, force, explosive, implosive…
You’ll fight in the heart of the distant planets with versatile biomes. Each with their own unique environment and challenges - reach a target area, unlock base gates, download data from data-pylons or survive the horde’s attack.
