The Postal Dude Returns in ‘Postal 4: No Regerts’!
Just when you thought it was safe, Running With Scissors have announced the return of the Postal series in Postal 4: No Regerts (and yes, the typo is intentional). Available now via Steam Early Access, the game will set you back $17.99 until October 21, after which it will cost $19.99.
So, just what’s the Postal Dude been up to since the last game? Several years have passed since the events that devastated the once proud town remembered as Paradise. The only known survivors were the everyman known as the Postal Dude and his loyal companion Champ. The duo now drive aimlessly through Arizona looking for a new place to call home. After a gas station rest stop ends with their car, trailer home, and the rest of their worldly possessions stolen, all the Dude’s seemingly got left to his name is his canine cohort and his bathrobe. As luck would have it, on the horizon, the Dude sees an unfamiliar and dazzling town known as Edensin.
You know where this is going.
Featuring open-world gameplay, Postal 4 also sees Jon St. John (of Duke Nukem fame) voicing the Dude, an over-the-top arsenal of weapons and a breadth of interactivity. You can also choose to play the game with the same full-on meyham as you’d expect, or you can play it pacifist. But where’s the fun in that?
