‘Night Slashers: Remake’ Coming to PC, PlayStation, Xbox and Nintendo Switch
Forever Entertainment is spreading the love to consoles and PC when it comes to Night Slashers: Remake. Together with developer Storm Trident, Forever Entertainment has announced that their upcoming remake of the 1993 beat-’em-up will be heading to PC via Steam and the Epic Games Store, Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5, Xbox One, and the Xbox Series. No release date has been announced.
For those who don’t know, Night Slashers originally appeared in the arcades from Data East, who also developed beat-’em-ups like Bad Dudes vs. DragonNinja, RoboCop (and its sequel), and Werewolf: The Last Warrior on the NES. Monsters have suddenly risen up all over the world, and quickly taken over. Three months after the takeover, a group of heroes have appeared, calling themselves the Night Slashers, to save the world from a supernatural apocalypse.
As you saw from the teaser released a few months ago, Night Slashers: Remake is going the Streets of Rage 4 route with its art, as well as featuring updated visual effects that “heighten the intensity of the gameplay”. The remake will also include an expanded roster, with multiplayer now featuring up to four players. Night Slashers: Remake will also include newly-arranged music, as well as the original soundtrack by Tomoyoshi Sato.

Upcoming “Unholy Alliance” Update for ‘Cult of the Lamb’ Adds Local Co-op and More [Teaser]
Cult of the Lamb players will be getting more free goodies later this summer with the Unholy Alliance update. Coming August 12, the update introduces a brand new playable character in the Goat, which coincides with the game allowing local co-op.
With the Unholy Alliance update, the entire Cult of the Lamb campaign will be playable in local co-op. Players will also be able to enjoy special 2-player versions of existing mini-games, such as Fishing and Knucklebones, as well as choose from a selection of weapons, tarot cards, curses, and corrupted relics as your cooperative crusades progress.
The Lamb and Goat can also swap weapons, deal extra damage when fighting back to back, and even deliver a critical hit when their attacks are in sync. Good news for those who prefer to stay alone in their corner: they will be able to benefit from various new powers.
In addition to the addition of cooperative play, the Unholy Alliance expansion adds several tarot cards, relics, buildings, fleeces, character traits and quests, as well as the addition of new secrets to discover.
More information on the update will be released as the launch date creeps closer. Cult of The Lamb is available now on PC via Steam, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series, and the Nintendo Switch.
