Grasshopper Manufacture’s LET IT DIE was a sleeper hit for the PlayStation 4. The 2017 free-to-play hack ‘n slasher received so-so reviews when it was released, but that hasn’t stopped it from logging over four million downloads as of April 2018. And now, PC gamers will get to experience it when the game heads to Steam this Fall!
Details such as system specs or a specific release date haven’t been announced yet, unfortunately.
For those unfamiliar with LET IT DIE, the game has you in the far-off year of 2026, where you play as an unnamed person tasked with scaling a tower in South Western Tokyo (which recently became an island) that’s filled with bizarre enemies and traps. You’re guided on your journey by a skateboarding grim reaper named Uncle Death, who instructs you to scrouge up pieces of armor and weaponry to increase your chances of survival in the tower.
Death is not the end for you, however. While if your character dies, you do end up losing all of your equipment and are sent back down the tower, your recently-deceased character and their equipment is saved to the game’s servers. That data means that other players can potentially encounter the ghostly version of your previous character as an enemy, allowing them to have the opportunity to slay you and snag your stuff. You can do the same thing with their former characters, too!
