Coffee Stain Publishing and Easy Trigger Games are pumped to reveal that Huntdown, the 80s inspired bounty hunting pixel art action comedy shooter will be coming to screens near you on May 12th. The 16-bit platformer will launch on PS4, Xbox One, Switch and PC exclusively on the Epic Games Store, and offers partners in cleansing crime the option to hunt in pairs with local co-op, or go lone wolf in the mean streets of mayhem. Set in a bleak dystopian future where sadistic gangs rule and cops fear to tread, only three legendary bounty hunters have the arsenal and killer instincts to take back the city from the corrupt fist of felony.

Inspired by the action movies and pop culture of the 80s with a gritty, violent twist, Huntdown is an old school arcade side scroller for the modern bounty hunter. The slick platformer features hand painted 16-bit pixel art graphics and hand-drawn animations, combined with fluid action-packed 60-FPS gameplay and an epic 80s soundtrack pumping dark wave, industrial synth, hard rock and electro through 20 unique levels.

Key Features:

• Two player local co-op
