UniqKiller: A Customizable Top-Down Shooter Hitting Mobile and PC
UniqKiller, a top-down shooter developed by Sao Paulo-based HypeJoe Games, made its official debut at Gamescom Latam. The game, showcased in a vibrant yellow booth, quickly attracted significant attention, with demos consistently drawing crowds. The prevalence of HypeJoe's yellow tote bags further highlighted the game's popularity at the event.
HypeJoe aims to differentiate UniqKiller in the competitive shooter market through its unique isometric perspective and extensive customization options. While the top-down view offers a distinct gameplay experience, the game's true strength lies in its player customization. In a market where individuality is increasingly valued, UniqKiller allows players to create truly unique characters – or "Uniqs" – with a wide array of cosmetic and skill-based options. Further customization unlocks are earned through gameplay, allowing for evolving playstyles and character appearances.
UniqKiller features standard multiplayer elements, including Clans, Clan Wars, special events, and missions. HypeJoe emphasizes fair matchmaking to ensure balanced gameplay for players of all skill levels.
UniqKiller is slated for release on mobile and PC platforms, with a closed beta test scheduled for November 2024. Keep an eye on Pocket Gamer for updates on the full release and potential future interviews with HypeJoe Games.
