<p>Japanese game developer and publisher <a href="https://whatoplay.com/developers/mutan/">MUTAN</a> has rolled out its latest party fighter game Goonya Monster. The Tokyo-based gaming studio announced during the INDIE Live Expo Winter that Goonya Monster went live on December 4. Gamers can access the 3D action platformer on <a href="https://whatoplay.com/pc/goonya-monster/">PC via Steam</a>, <a href="https://whatoplay.com/switch/goonya-monster/">Nintendo Switch</a>, and <a href="https://whatoplay.com/ps5/goonya-monster/">PlayStation 5</a>.</p>

<p>The core of Goonya Monster's gameplay still takes a cue from Goonya Fighter, MUTAN's first multiplayer action game. Players engage in a "fast-paced, rampage battle" to win against opposing players.</p>

<p>MUTAN has tapped several superstars in Japan's creative industry for their latest game. It featured illustrations by Terada Tera, a Japanese illustrator who brought the chibi characters to life. In addition, the game features famous Japanese voice actors such as Shiori Izaqa, Rikako Aida, Nogami Sho, Fairuz Ai, and Tomokazu Sugit.</p>

<p><q>Terada Tera's iconic art style combined with the musical talents we've partnered with is (sic) a perfect match for a party game,</q> Hiroyuki Watanabe, CEO of MUTAN, said in a statement.</p>

<p>The studio also partnered with Japanese rock bands SAKANAMON, FAKE TYPE, and Cho Gakusei to create custom avatar skins.</p>

<p>A group of players will be transported to an asymmetric 3v1 gameplay in Goonya Monster. Three will become the Busters. The remaining fourth player, meanwhile, will take on the role of the Monster.</p>

<p>To win as Busters, players must collect all souls. In soul-harvesting the undead, they can arm themselves with various weapons, such as shotguns, lasers, flamethrowers, and landmines.</p>

<p>The Monster, on the other hand, must stop the Busters from completing their mission. They also need to steal back the souls the enemies have gathered. Players can aim their huge laser beams and send waves of minions to stop Busters from bringing back their dead teammates.</p>

<p>Goonya Monster currently costs US$19.99. To mark its launch, developers have dangled a 10 percent discount for players.</p>

Devs to roll out physical editions for consoles

Koa and the Five Pirates of Mara Launch Pushed Back to 2023

<p><a href="https://whatoplay.com/pc/oddballers/">Oddballers</a>, an upcoming dodgeball-inspired game, finally has a release date. According to France-based game publisher Ubisoft, it will launch on PC and game consoles on January 26, 2023. Their announcement came roughly 10 months after they decided to delay the game’s release.</p>

<p>The game will be available on <a href="https://whatoplay.com/pc/oddballers/">PC</a>, <a href="https://whatoplay.com/switch/oddballers/">Nintendo Switch</a>, <a href="https://whatoplay.com/ps4/oddballers/">PlayStation 4</a>, <a href="https://whatoplay.com/ps5/oddballers/">PlayStation 5</a> and <a href="https://whatoplay.com/xbox-one/oddballers/">Xbox One</a> Ubisoft added. They also said <a href="https://whatoplay.com/xbox-series-x/oddballers/">Xbox Series X|S</a> players can access the upcoming 3D multiplayer party game through compatibility mode.</p>

<p>Oddballers’ launch date was initially set for March 28, 2022. Twenty days before its scheduled release, Ubisoft decided to postpone its launch. They said the developers needed more time to make improvements to the game.</p>

<p>Oddballers is created by <a href="https://whatoplay.com/developers/game-swing/">Game Swing</a>. The Danish developer has changed its name from “Reign Bros.” They made another game about dodgeball called <a href="https://whatoplay.com/xbox-one/stikbold-a-dodgeball-adventure/">Stikbold: A Dodgeball Adventure</a>. Oddballers’ publisher and developers promised a “refreshing and absurd” take on dodgeball.</p>

<p><q>A new type of dodgeball game, players in Oddballers can throw anything and everything at their opponents to win,</q> Ubisoft said. <q>The more absurd, the better,</q> they added.</p>

<p>In it, a team of four to six players engages in a “whacky and brutal” battle of dodgeball. Players can choose to play either online or solo.</p>

<p>According to Ubisoft, <q>each match comes with customizable accessibility features, allowing players to adjust match length and difficulty.</q>
The game also features multiple arenas, dozens of mini-games, and customizable avatars.</p>

<p>In 2020, a limited, four-player demo release of the game was released. Several gamers and YouTubers published videos showing previews of what the actual gameplay would look like.</p>

<p>Ubisoft has begun accepting preorders for Oddballers, which is currently priced at US$19.99.</p>

A historical and metaphysical journey in Imperial China

Reigns: Three Kingdoms Launches on Netflix Games

<p>Polish game studio <a href="https://whatoplay.com/developers/thing-trunk/">Thing Trunk</a> has tapped Skystone Games for the release of its deck builder title <a href="https://whatoplay.com/pc/hellcard/">HELLCARD</a>.</p> 

<p>The two gaming companies confirmed their tie-up ahead of HELLCARD's release. The <a href="https://whatoplay.com/pc/upcoming/" title="List of upcoming PC games">upcoming game will land on PCs</a> in early 2023.</p>

<p>Executives from Thing Trunk and Skystone Games revealed that they shared the same enthusiasm for HELLCARD's potential. Konstanty Kalicki from Thing Trunk said they are glad to have joined forces with Skystone.</p>

<p><q>Skystone's team is packed with talent and publishing expertise. Even more importantly though, we understand each other and are surprisingly aligned,</q> Kalicki said.</p>

<p>Renowned game developer David Brevik currently leads Skystone Games. After the first Diablo game sold well and got good reviews, Brevik became well-known in the video game industry. He previously worked for Blizzard. He also once served as the co-founder and president of Blizzard North.</p>

<p>For his part, Brevik, who sits as Skystone's President, said their team became an instant fan of HELLCARD.</p>

<p><q>It's got the same amazing visual style in <a href="https://whatoplay.com/xbox-one/book-of-demons/">Book of Demons</a>, with the kind of just-one-more-run gameplay that makes games of the genre so beloved,</q> Brevik pointed out. <q>We're thrilled that Konstanty and the entire Thing Trunk team are trusting us to help them bring HELLCARD to the masses next year,</q> he added.</p>

<p>In the meantime, developers said they had opened sign-ups for the game's closed beta test.</p> 

<p>Creators described HELLCARD as a "cooperative roguelike deck builder" game. It is the second major project for Thing Trunk. HELLCARD's storyline will take place in the same "Paperverse" as Book of Demons. Players can choose to play either in <a href="https://whatoplay.com/upcoming/single-player/">single-player</a> or <a href="https://whatoplay.com/upcoming/multiplayer/">multiplayer</a> modes. To win, they must conquer 'strategic and fast-paced' card-based battles.</p>

<p>HELLCARD will be available for download via Steam.</p>

<div class="video-responsive">
	<iframe width="560" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/9pwa-eCDhHg?controls=0" title="YouTube video player" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture" allowfullscreen></iframe>
</div>

<p>The developers have confirmed that Divine Knockout, initialized as <strong>DKO</strong>	, will feature cross-platform play. However, the game's <a href="https://www.divineknockout.com/">official website</a> states that in order to do so, players must obtain an Edition or access key.</p>

<p><q>Note that purchasing DKO on one platform will not give you access to play DKO on other platforms,</q> portions of the online FAQ read. <q>You must have access to DKO on a platform (either by purchasing an Edition or getting an access key in a giveaway) to be able to play on that platform,</q> it added.</p>

<p>According to a press release, there will be two Editions for DKO. These are the Founders Edition and the Ultimate Edition.</p>

<p>In DKO, players become mythological gods or goddesses drawn in chibi art style. They must master their characters' abilities to knock out their enemies. They also need to learn how the different arenas work so they can get the upper hand in battle.</p>

<p><q>DKO is a world of expressive characters and destructible environments,</q> Alexandre Grimonpont, Executive Producer at <a href="https://whatoplay.com/developers/red-beard-games/">Red Beard Games</a>, said.</p>

<p>When it comes out, players can jump right into all game modes, including 1v1 and 3v3. These include Knockout, King of the Hill, Coin Blitz, and Oddball.</p>

<p>DKO is currently in closed beta testing. Players, however, can already wishlist the game on Steam, Epic Game Store, and PlayStation. In the meantime, the developers promised an action-packed multiplayer fight where players could use the powers of their chosen god without having to use complicated controls.</p>

<p><q>DKO is all about timing, positioning, and moment-to-moment choices – not button complexity,</q> said Alex Cantatore, Vice President of Publishing at Red Beard Games.</p>

Top 25 Upcoming Switch Games of 2023

<p>The Nintendo Switch version of the classic puzzle <a href="https://whatoplay.com/switch/genre/platformer">platformer</a> <a href="https://whatoplay.com/switch/oddworld-soulstorm/">Oddworld: Soulstorm</a> is now live in North America. Microids and Oddworld Inhabitants confirmed the launch of Oddworld: Soulstorm - Oddtimized Edition. They released the game on the eShop last November 18.</p>

<p>The 2.5D side-scrolling game first came out for Switch players in Europe on October 27. According to earlier reports, Oddworld: Soulstorm - Oddtimized Edition currently costs US$50. Switch players need at least 11.2 GB of free space to download the game.</p>

<p>The remastered grimy, action and puzzle game that made the rave in the late 90s also served as the sequel to Oddworld: New 'n' Tasty.</p>

<p><q>Optimized for Nintendo Switch to take advantage of the platform's unique features, this version features the same amazing Soulstorm gameplay currently found on the other platforms, with a delightful Switch flavor,</q> developers said.</p>

<p>Oddworld: Soulstorm - Oddtimized Edition takes players in the aftermath of the revolution in RuptureFarms. They will lead the protagonist, Abe, in liberating another 1,000 Mudokons from the oppressive grasp of the industrialist Glukkons.</p>

<p>Along the way, they must confront an uncertain future and a forgotten past. Players will need to use Abe's instincts and skills to protect themselves from enemy attacks, avoid detection, and ignite a revolution.</p>

<p>The story also has four unique endings derived from the players' choices at each level.</p>

<p>Oddworld: Soulstorm - Oddtimized Edition has 15 levels. It also has two extra unlockable levels at the end of the game. Players earn Quarma scores at the end of every level based on how many Mudokons they save.</p>

<p>Developers said gamers with higher Quarma scores could expect good and happy endings. But 'dire fate' awaits those with lower scores.</p>

<p>Players need not worry, the developers added, as they can go back to any level and improve their Quarma scores.</p>

<p>Oddworld: Soulstorm became available for <a href="https://whatoplay.com/pc/oddworld-soulstorm/">PC</a>, <a href="https://whatoplay.com/ps4/oddworld-soulstorm/">PS4</a>, and <a href="https://whatoplay.com/ps5/oddworld-soulstorm/">PS5</a> in April 2021. Enhanced Editions later rolled out in November of the same year, coinciding with the game's <a href="https://whatoplay.com/xbox-one/oddworld-soulstorm-enhanced-edition/">Xbox One</a> and <a href="https://whatoplay.com/xbox-series-x/oddworld-soulstorm-enhanced-edition/">Series X|S</a> releases.</p>
