Watch the first trailer for Wakerunners, the new game by indie sensation Dave the Diver developers Mintrocket!
I’m not usually into multiplayer focused online games, but Wakerunners looks pretty cool. I tend to enjoy fast paced top-down games. It was a surprise to see how different this is from Dave the Diver.
From Mintrocket:
Initially revealed under the code name Project TB in May of 2022, Wakerunners is a 4v4 and 5v5 action game set in a dystopian sci-fi future. A ravaged Earth is now the site of skirmishes between surviving factions. The fast-paced gameplay features combat at close-quarters, while combatants glide across battle arenas at high speeds, using a unique acceleration and deceleration mechanic. Wakerunners offers a variety of characters, each with unique abilities, personas, and battle styles. Players have the ability to swap characters mid-battle, which allows them to strategically use a variety of skills throughout a battle.
A demo including several game modes and playable characters will be released during Steam Next Fest on February 5. Modes include Team Deathmatch, Raider, Control Conquest, Command Seige, and Escort.
