Cellar Door Games rethinks the brawler

The team behind roguelike platformer Rogue Legacy is working on a new team-based brawler called Full Metal Furies, developer Cellar Door Games announced today. Bound for Xbox One and Windows PC, Full Metal Furies “will challenge you to think like a team, and to rethink what a brawler could be,” according to its creators.

Full Metal Furies was developed “completely around cooperation,” the developer said in a news release. Up to four players can play as one of four character roles (sentinel, engineer, sniper, fighter) and battle creatures from Greek mythology (titans, minotaurs, lycoans).

Cellar Door will also offer something for the lone single player as well. As seen in Full Metal Furies’ announcement trailer above, players can “quick-swap” between two characters on the fly, chaining together combos using each character’s special abilities.

Full Metal Furies will be “hard,” Cellar Door says, and stuffed with RPG mechanics, equipment to collect and puzzles to solve. More details are available at the game’s official website.

Expect Full Metal Furies to arrive sometime in 2017.
