Guacamelee! Included in Humble Weekly Sale

John Bardinelli

Guacamelee! was originally released in April 2013 for PlayStation 3 and PS Vita. The PC port came later in the year, and an enhanced Guacamelee!: Super Turbo Championship Edition version is in the works for a Spring 2014 release on next-gen consoles and Xbox 360. One part action game, one part platformer, and one part brawler, Guacamelee! stars Juan Aguacate, a down on his luck farmer who travels through the worlds of the living and the dead to rescue the love of his life. It's incredibly stylish and, at times, incredibly difficult, but the two player local co-op makes up for that. A bit.

Special Edition of Guacamelee! Coming to Consoles

Christopher Metz

Thus far, this platformer title had only reached PlayStation and PC owners. DrinkBox Studios, however, couldn't let their fans down, wanting their game to be available on as many of the current gen consoles as possible. Not only will Guacamelee! be coming to the PS4, Xbox One, Nintendo Wii U, and Xbox 360, but will also include a large amount of new content to dive into. New additions such as: an extended story with all new areas in the game to battle through, an all new boss character, all new player abilities, and many other enhancements will make this the definitive version to play. Even if you've already experienced the game before, it might be worth it to check out what the Super Turbo Championship Edition has to offer:

Guacamelee Might be Headed to Next-Gen Consoles

John Bardinelli

The rumor is based on an article that appeared on IGN that has since been removed. The internet never sleeps, of course, so plenty of eyes saw the leak and started blabbing. As far as rumors go, this one sounds surprisingly tame, and therefore more plausible. If we're going to spread unconfirmed information, why not crazy it up a little bit? We heard there's going to be a secret hot coffee nude mode in the new Guacamelee. Yeah, that's right. You just have to know the secret code to unlock it. And nobody's going to tell you the code because the NSA stole it and gave it to Obama. Yes, rumors.

Guacamelee! Gold Edition Coming to PC

John Bardinelli

Moving from PlayStation 3 and PS Vita to PC doesn't come without a few perks, of course. The new release sports the full title Guacamelee! Gold Edition and will include a handful of extras, a few of which are PC exclusive. In addition, all who buy the game within a week of its August 8th release will get another DrinkBox Studios game for free: Tales from Space: Mutant Blobs Attack, a co-op puzzle platformer originally released in 2011.

Guacamelee! El Diablo's Domain DLC Impressions

Locke Vincent

The Devil's domain features a tower full of challenge levels that will test the skills of even the best wrestlers. Grab one of the new costumes and head down to deal with some dirty work. El Infierno is available as a cross-buy download for both PS3 and PSVita for $2.99. Drinkbox Studios has created a great reason to pick Guacamelee! back up. Even if you have wrapped the game, the challenge levels will push your limits as a luchador. Each level has a different goal; race to the goal, defeat a certain number of enemies, or amass a large combo without being hit. Climb the ranks of El Infierno, and the challenges become more difficult. For an added bonus bronze, silver, and gold medals will be rewarded based on performance.

Guacamelee! 'El Diablo's Domain' DLC Now Available, Featuring New Levels and Costumes

Christopher Metz

DrinkBox Studios, developer of Guacamelee!, lauded the difficultly of this level, described as the “El Infierno” of the game. Players shouldn’t take this lightly. As they said themselves, this is where players battle "skeletal enemies in the bureaucratic nightmare of the Devil’s domain, where tortured souls are given never-ending paperwork." Sounds pretty rough to me (I wonder what Locke thinks about this)! Take a quick look at the DLC through a video, courtesy of Gamespot:

Do Be Chicken, with Guacamelee! DLC Coming Soon

Sam Tyler

If you walk around in a Chicken Suit in the real world, the only power you will get is the ability to be stared at by strangers. Thankfully, Guacamelee! is anything but the real world; instead it is a 2 player co-op side scrolling beat-em-up on PSN and Vita that now has new DLC in the form of three power providing suits. Other new DLC will allow players to swap characters mid-level for the first time; Cock-a-doodle-doo.

Guacamelee Coming April 9th on Vita and PS3

Nick Puleo

We haven't heard much about Guacamelee! since we saw it last fall at PAX Prime. The metroidvania style game where you take control of mutli-dimensional hopping luchadors and do what luchadors do - beat things up - is coming out next month on April 9th.

PAX 2012: Interview with Drinkbox Studios, developer of Guacamelee!

Locke Vincent

We had a chance to talk with Chris McQuinn from Drinkbox Studios at Penny Arcade Expo. They were showing off Guacamelee! which is based on something we all love, luchadores. Chris described the game as a "Metroidvania brawler" which features two player co-op, rooted in Mexican culture.

No Need to Shout. Guacamelee! Coming to PSN

Sam Tyler

Welsh band Super Furry Animals, once sang to me that they needed medication for their sleep deprivation, GUACAMOLE! Firstly, there is no need to shout and secondly, I may have found a cure for their Mexican dip based insomnia in the form of Guacamelee! This 2 player local co-op platformer/action game is coming to PSN soon and appears to be as mental as that song.
