Deathverse: Let It Die Announced for PS5 and PS4
Supertrick Games is creating a sequel to Let It Die, this time a PvPvE game where players fight to be the only survivor of a reality TV show called Death Jamboree. Players fight alongside bots called Wilsons that can transform into a variety of lethal weapons, deploy protective shields, fire electric stun bullets and activate skills. As players progress, Wilson can be upgraded for even more features. Opposing players aren’t the only danger, though. The show is set on an island covered in SPLithium, an energy source that has created mutated creatures known as UMA. You’ll be battling those creatures as well as nearly-invincible Hunters that join the match halfway through. Will you become a rising star when the game arrives in 2022 for PS4 and PS5?
