Firestoke and RageCure Games announce
Goons: Legends & Mayhem a hockey
game coming to PC and consoles this year. The title reflects the game's focus on
the rougher aspects of the sport, though it doesn't reflect that the game is
about hockey, which seems like an odd choice. The
Announce Trailer shows this is a 3v3 variation on the sport, but it also
shows downhill skiing hockey, Zamboni demolition derby, and other imaginative
modes that will have you asking Gordie Howe did we get here? Word is: "Following
in the footsteps of titles like Mario Strikers and Windjammers, Goons: Legends &
Mayhem brings cartoon brawling action to the sport of hockey, delivering fun
multiplayer matches where outrageous special abilities are key to your goal of
getting the puck into the net." Here's more:
Supporting 1-6 players,
Goons: Legends & Mayhem is a 3 vs 3 hockey action game with a variety of PvE and
PvP modes, including a full story campaign. Players can choose from one of eight
characters divided into 3 classes - the attack focused sharpshooter, the defense
oriented enforcer and the wingman, a wildcard that can either focus on
supporting their team, or act as a constant pain in the neck of the opponents.
Each character has their own special ability, including explosive mines,
freezing opponents in a cube of ice and teleportation, adding an element of
cartoony brawling to this hockey title where teamwork is the key to success.
Goons: Legends & Mayhem story campaign takes players on a varied journey across
ice rinks nestled in forests, to floating ice rinks sailing the sea on pirate
ships as they try to stop the Great Mascoteer’s mission to ruin hockey for
everyone. On this adventure, players will encounter bosses to defeat,
collectibles, character upgrades, and cool cosmetic unlockables.
