Retroware makes some pretty cool games, including a stylish run-and-gun shooter called Neon Inferno and the Toxic Crusaders beat 'em up. Both games are finally coming to consoles and PC this year. Before they arrive, gamers will be able to take a fresh look via the MIX Summer Game Showcase. The showcase will broadcast footage of them on Twitch on June 3, and allow in-person demos on June 6.
Neon Inferno
Official description:
Three decades from now, New York City is at war with itself. A war with no battlefield: criminal syndicates control four of its five boroughs, fighting each other and the corrupt NYPD in a vicious struggle for supremacy. Into this dystopia steps a fledgling crime family trying to secure their place, striving for power just as everyone else. You are their deadliest weapon.
Like the best run-and-gun shooters, Neon Inferno features 2-player local co-op. Players select from a pair of gun-wielding heroes and then hit the streets of a gorgeously rendered future New York. The annoying CRT filter can be turned off, thank goodness. There's a demo on Steam.
Neon Inferno will arrive on Xbox, PlayStation, Switch, and Steam sometime this year.
Toxic Crusaders
Official description:
The Toxic Crusaders are back to defend Tromaville against the evil Dr. Killemoff and his army of Radiation Rangers. With local co-op, you can grab up to four friends and take on the forces of Smogula across a variety of vibrant pixel-art levels. Choose from seven playable characters and dive into an action-packed, pun-filled adventure that’ll drag you through the wonderful world of Troma!
Toxic Crusaders will sell for $24.99 when it arrives on Xbox, PlayStation, Switch, and Steam this year - two years after the original release date!
