Publisher Devolver Digital and developer Doinksoft have released a new trailer for Gunbrella dubbed “Multitool of the Trade.”
The trailer showcases the game’s namesake “Gunbrella” alongside its environments and enemies. Players will take on the role of a woodsman on a quest for revenge, armed with a firearm that doubles as an umbrella.
Here is an overview of the game, via its Steam page:
About
Gunbrella is a noir-punk action–adventure set in a world dependent on a rapidly diminishing natural resource. Players take the role of a gruff woodsman on a quest for revenge, armed with the mysterious Gunbrella: a firearm that doubles as an umbrella. His investigation becomes entangled with the inner workings of ghouls and gangsters, cops, and cutlists, and the fallout of corporate exploitation.
Key Features
- Engage in side-scrolling action combat with a focus on maneuverability and close-quarters gunplay. Your gun is also a movement tool. Use the umbrella to glide, swing, dash, and dive.
- Interrogate and speak to a cast of bizarre characters. What you learn is recorded in your investigative notebook.
- Manage your resources. Find scrap and spare parts to trade for different munitions and upgrades.
- Explore various locations from a small town menaced by cult kidnappings, to a junkyard-turned-fortress ruled by a trash gang, and maybe even the mythical city of Avalon, where it’s rumored that you can still see the sky.
- Uncover the mysteries of the supernatural as wraiths and monstrosities materialize in places where blood has been shed…
Gunbrella is due out for Switch and PC via Steam in 2023.
