Developer IguanaBee Studios and publisher GameMill Entertainment have announced their brand-new title Skull Island: Rise of Kong. Skull Island: Rise of Kong is a brand-new adventure game based on the rich history of Skull Island developed by Creator Joe DeVito and based on Merian C. Cooper’s King Kong. This third-person action-adventure game will let you become Kong on a journey of vengeance as you fight to claim your rightful place as King of Skull Island. Check out the announcement trailer for Skull Island: Rise of Kong below:
Skull Island: Rise of Kong is set on Skull Island, and you will be set on an action-packed quest to avenge the death of Kong’s parents at the hands of the ultimate alpha predator: the saurian terror Gaw. You will traverse the mysterious island and uncover its secrets across a variety of treacherous environments, discovering the power coursing through its exotic flora and fauna. You will also conquer waves or primal beasts, defeat unique bosses, and rise above all creatures to become the King of Skull Island.
Key features of the game include:
- Explore the Origins of the King: Start your journey as the orphaned Kong and experience his evolution to the King of Skull Island as you hunt for revenge against Gaw.
- Unleash the Fury of Kong: Deal devastating combos to dominate Gaw’s ferocious minions and unleash your rage to heighten the impact of your attacks. Send even the most gargantuan of enemies fleeing with your earth-shattering roar and brutal finishing attacks.
- Ascend to New Heights: Gain new abilities through special events and intense boss fights to unlock Kong’s full potential.
- Discover the Mythos of Skull Island: Explore mountainous terrain, jungles, swamps, skullite-filled caves, and more to unearth collectibles, unlock new areas, and learn more about the mysterious history of this faraway land.
Skull Island: Rise of Kong is now available for pre-order for $39.99 at all major retailers. It will release on PC via Steam, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, and Nintendo Switch. Apart from the normal edition, a digital deluxe version of the game called Colossal Edition is also coming for pre-order soon at $49.99 and it will include eight exclusive film grains. These film grains will give you the ability to experience a red-tinted rage mode and the original look of the classic 1933 and 1970s-era King Kong films.
The King Kong style pack comes with eight different colors which will allow you to choose your own Kong, a boss-rush mode that will allow you to defeat all titans of Skull Island, and a behind-the-scenes exclusive pack including looks at in-game artwork and all-original orchestral soundtrack. Additional details about the game will be revealed in the upcoming weeks and months leading up to the game’s release later this year.
