Isometric dungeon crawlers have always been a part of the video game landscape, beginning with arcade games like Gauntlet. Most of us who grew up with the PlayStation 2 would have been introduced to the genre thanks to X-Men Legends and its sequel.
And if you missed the superhero RPG antics of X-Men Legends and Marvel Ultimate Alliance, you should check out the upcoming game, Superfuse. This comic book-inspired RPG will have players hack-and-slash as superpowered heroes in space.
Superfuse begins with most of humanity escaping Earth to rebuild their lives in space. The wealthy live in luxury, extending their lifespans and augmenting themselves with superpowers, becoming gods in the process. Meanwhile, the rest of humanity barely cling on to life.
Soon, a new threat emerges in the form of shambling monsters called the Corruption. And so, the corporate gods created the Enforcers to patrol the solar system and deal with the danger posed by the Corruption.
As a member of the Enforcers, Superfuse gives players the ability to meticulously tailor their powers to suit their preferred playstyle. With a staggering number of possible skill combinations, Superfuse’s skill tree is as deep as it goes.
Play solo or in four-person multiplayer with friends to demolish hordes of grotesque creatures, hulking abominations, and larger-than-life bosses that feel like they have stepped right out from the pages of a comic book, thanks to Superfuse’s cel-shaded aesthetics.
Players can optimise their perfect hero with powerful weapons, hi-tech armor, and boosters. Collect hundreds of different types of loot with randomized stats to make their hero more powerful.
Besides allowing players to mix and match classes to create the perfect team, but the game’s levels are also procedurally generated, meaning players will never fight along the same path twice.
A player can tackle the challenges of the galaxy alone or with up to three other human players. Superfuse is available to wishlist on Steam and will be launching in early access this year with the full release coming in 2023.
