There are games that many of us still have burned into our retinas and Carmageddon was one of them. We don’t know if the current times would allow us to play something like that, but certainly in Konami They thought there was room for a development that, while it could offer similar action, is then adorned by that brilliant artistic aspect that gives a setting inspired by the 1950s of the last century.
Indeed. Carmageddon It was a global phenomenon that became famous for belonging to those early days of 3D games but, above all, for a frenetic action that allowed us to run over every living thing that crossed our path. And of course, ram other vehicles that came to attack us. So a similar formula, but camouflaged under another aspect, is what has been decided to bring back to us. Konami.
Konami’s frenetic Carmageddon-style action
The point is that Konami is not responsible for the game, but it is responsible for capturing the talent of a Swedish studio like Far Out Games and making its first production, which shows promise. Its name is Deliver at all costs And it is exactly what you imagine. We are the representatives of a shipping company that receives orders that are not easy to complete, and that is precisely where a good part of the secret of the success that (we believe) this little wonder will have lies.
And it’s not just because we can drive our delivery van through scenarios in isometric perspective, destroying everything we see (living or inanimate), but above all that happens in each phase there is a plot that will captivate us with each new assignment we take on. As the game states, claim From the developer’s own statement, “you’ll come for the chaos and stay for the story.”
The game is planned to go on sale in the coming months, there is no official date confirmed, but it will be available on PC (Steam and Epic Games Store), Xbox and PlayStation, and if you have seen the video already, indeed Deliver at all costs is what it sounds like: a frenetic game in which we can destroy everything we see in the scene, fight other enemies and escape when things get tough. All with the ultimate goal of “delivering the goods at any price.”
Set in a dreamy 50s
Deliver at all costs is an action game that we can define as narrative and that is inspired by that nostalgic atmosphere of the 50s in the United States. In our case we will put ourselves in the shoes of Winston Green, a messenger with many fits of anger who has a dark past, and who moves through a world in which only chords of rock and rollpolka dot dresses and a nuclear panic that was on everyone’s lips in that decade.
As Winston, you’ll be tasked with completing strange deliveries, causing as much damage as you can along the way and using various vehicles that will enhance your destructive power. The game features a moving world where the developer claims that players’ actions have unpredictable consequences, all while unravelling a gripping story of intrigue across three acts. Fancy getting your hands on it?
