Amazon Games unveils King of Meat, a new co-op hack-and-slash title from British developer Glowmade
Amazon Games has revealed King of the meat as part of Gamescom 2024’s Opening Night Live show. Developed by British studio Glowmade Games, King of the meat is an online cooperative hack and slash game in which up to four players explore dangerous and crazy dungeons.
Set in the world of Loregok, the game follows contestants of the eponymous fictional game show “King of Meat” who are forced to battle all sorts of fantasy monsters and dodge brutal traps to satisfy a bloodthirsty crowd of onlookers. You’ll be rewarded for wowing the crowd with over-the-top Glory Moves, utilizing various weapons, and pulling off tricky combos.
That’s not all, though, as you can also take on the role of a dungeon creator equipped with a wealth of tools to create your own terrifying labyrinths. In this mode, you can choose from a range of presets or start from scratch. All levels in the game are created using this system, so you can design gauntlets that are truly on par with those created by the developers.
It all sounds like a lot of fun and could be a real treat for those looking for a fun game to play with friends. For those who prefer to experience King of the meat only the game also supports solo play.
