Alientrap Announces ‘Gunhead’ Sequel: A Thrilling FPS Jetpack Roguelike Coming November 8th

Alientrap, the creative minds behind Cryptark, are back with an exciting new venture. This time, they’re taking their expertise in procedural generation and infusing it into a first-person experience with their upcoming sequel, Gunhead. Described as an “FPS Jetpack Roguelike,” this eagerly awaited title is set to hit both PC and PlayStation 5 on November 8. The thrilling release date revelation took place during the Realms Deep event, and you can catch a glimpse of the action in the fresh trailer provided.

As the preview showcases, Alientrap remains committed to the adrenaline-pumping pursuit of battling Mother Brains and an array of cybernetic monstrosities. In this sequel to Cryptark, players can expect procedurally generated starships to explore, offering endless surprises. With over 50 weapons and items to incorporate into your loadout, you’ll have a wealth of options to experiment with. And for those itching to dive into the action, a demo is already available on Steam.

So, what’s the mission in Gunhead? Players will find themselves boarding space-hulks with a singular objective: neutralize them. This endeavor promises to boost your financial gains in the Privateering enterprise. However, these formidable tasks won’t come easy, as you’ll encounter various obstacles, including security systems and menacing cyborgs, all culminating in an epic showdown with the Core. If this setup sounds familiar, it’s reminiscent of Cryptark’s gameplay, where salvage missions preceded the daunting challenge of tackling massive alien title ships. With the same procedural generation approach, players familiar with Alientrap’s previous work will feel right at home.

Cryptark was known for its fast-paced and frenetic gameplay, and it appears that Alientrap aims to capture that same essence in Gunhead. With promises of multiple enemy ship types, players can anticipate a diverse range of challenges when the full game finally launches.

Get ready to embark on an interstellar adventure filled with action, intrigue, and relentless battles.
