Announced back in April for consoles, Guns, Gore & Cannoli from Crazy Monkey Studios is coming to PlayStation 4 on December 8 in North America and Europe, following “its successful release for PC and Mac and doing even better on Xbox One.”
Described as a 2D, fast-paced hilarious action shooter, Guns, Gore & Cannoli includes a campaign mode, co-op mode, 13 additional free skins, and a Versus mode, including seven additional battle arenas.
Crazy Monkey talked about Versus mode:
Play against your friends or try beating the expert battle AI our programmers prepared for you. But beware, you won’t be fighting mindless zombies or airheaded goons this time. This AI will be controlled by 21kb seemingly gibberish code that will blast you of the map.
Here’s the full description for Guns, Gore & Cannoli:
Imagine The Godfather playing Metal Slug on the Night of the Living Dead. Guns, Gore & Cannoli is an over-the-top, comical, fast-paced action game with hand drawn graphics set in the Roaring Twenties. Meet Vinnie Cannoli, a hard-boiled gangster who comes to Thugtown, to find a goodfella who is gone missing. Nothing that can’t be solved with a kind word with the local gangsters though. Especially when you’re packing a Tommy gun and a double barrel shotgun to be a little more persuasive. There’s only one thing that’s holding him back… Every friggin’ lowlife in the city turned into a flesh-eating maniac. This is survival horror, wiseguy style… Capiche?
