Red Candle Games’ ‘Devotion’ is Back For Sale, Just Not on Steam
Remember the controversy surrounding Red Candle Games’ Devotion, and how the game was taken off Steam? Despite the game now being preserved by Harvard University’s library, you still can’t actually buy it. Until now, that is.
Starting today, and available until June 15, Devotion will be released in a physical version for PC in limited quantities. The game is also only limited to the Taiwan region only, and not for overseas. If you do live in Taiwan, you can order the game from Red Candle’s official site.
Red Candle Games acknowledges that this limited sales option isn’t going to satisfy every gamer who wants to play it, but they are continuing to explore other possibilities. Devotion will be available in two versions: A version that includes the game, storybook, bookmark and stickers, and a version that includes that plus the game’s soundtrack.
Meanwhile, you can still purchase Red Candle Games’ precursor to Devotion, Detention on Steam.
Retroware surprised everyone last year with the announcement that they’re working on a throwback beat-’em-up based on the Toxic Crusaders cartoon. Grab your mop and get ready: the side-scrolling beat ’em up game is heading our way later this year.
Toxic Crusaders is now available to preorder on Steam, with the game set for Fall 2024 release. Exact date TBA.
Developer and publisher Retroware has teamed up with Troma Entertainment to bring the characters from the 1991 cartoon “Toxic Crusaders” back, for an all-new, all-action beat ’em up for one to four players.
In the game, “When the evil Dr. Killemoff attacks, only one team of hideously deformed creatures of superhuman size and strength stands between him and his plans for global pollution: the Toxic Crusaders, Earth’s last, greatest and ugliest hope for survival! Battle across seven disgusting levels rendered in vibrant pixel art as you defend Tromaville from hordes of Radiation Rangers, mutated thugs and zombie chickens. The odds might be stacked against you but with awesome powers, a winning personality, and up to four-players on your side, the Smogulan Empire’s days are numbered!
“Choose from seven playable characters, including Toxie, No-Zone, Junkyard, Major Disaster, and Headbanger – plus, for the first time, play as Toxie’s musically “gifted” girlfriend Yvonne, and the mother of all mothers, Mrs. Junko, Toxie’s mom!”
Considering this is set in Tromaville, it’s a safe bet that we’ll see more Troma characters beyond the Crusaders here. Toxic Crusaders will also feature fully voice-acted motion comic cutscenes, featuring voice acting by TeamFourStar, industry veterans, and of course, Troma actors.
Check out the gameplay demo below for a closer look at the Toxic Crusaders in action.
Toxic Crusaders is coming soon to Xbox Series X + S, Playstation 4 + 5, Steam, Nintendo Switch, and the Epic Games Store. But you can wishlist on Steam in the meantime.
