Pet Project Games and 3D Realms are set to launch the most significant update yet for their sci-fi co-op horror FPS, RIPOUT, along with an enticing 25% discount. The Monstrous update, available today, introduces a slew of thrilling additions, including a new enemy, mission type, sidearm, enhancement pet buffs, performance enhancements, animations, bug fixes, and more.
One of the standout features of the update is the introduction of the formidable Bulwark enemy. This enforcer shields itself while advancing toward players, making it impervious to damage until it initiates its minigun attack. Players must strategize and wait for the opportune moment to strike. To aid in this endeavor, the new Buckshot sidearm offers a close-range option with scaling damage based on proximity, adding an exhilarating risk-reward element to the gameplay.
Check out the new Monstrous Update in action in the trailer below:
Additionally, players will face a fresh challenge with the introduction of Recycler missions. Tasked with clearing bio canisters destined for the recycle bin, players must act swiftly to prevent an explosive outcome. Fail to dispose of enough canisters, and the mission will end in failure, adding a new layer of intensity to the gameplay experience.
RIPOUT thrusts players into a co-op horror shooter scenario where they wield a living Pet Gun and navigate through abandoned spaceships infested with mutants. These genetically modified adversaries evolve and adapt by assimilating smaller mutants, keeping players on their toes as they uncover the mysteries behind humanity’s fate and the elusive Sanctuary.
Players are invited to join the RIPOUT community on Discord, while also taking advantage of the 25% discount available upon release. With its immersive gameplay, gripping storyline, and adrenaline-pumping action, RIPOUT promises to deliver an unforgettable gaming experience for fans of co-op horror FPS titles.
