Dark Wild West Twin-Stick Shooter “West of Dead” Launches in 2020

Publisher Raw Fury and developer Upstream Arcade have announced the release window for West of Dead.

The dark wild west twin-stick shooter is launching across Windows PC (via Steam, GOG, and the Windows Store), PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and Nintendo Switch sometime in 2020.

An open beta for the game is available now on Xbox One, until November 24th.


Here’s a rundown on the game:

Purgatory, Wyoming, 1888.

A place of gun smoke and darkness, sin and damnation, wendigos and witches. A shifting, chaotic world that takes its form from the memories, culture or beliefs of the souls who pass through. When a dead man awakens with only the memory of a figure in black, he sets into motion a chain of events that have truly mythic consequences.

Step into the boots of the dead man William Mason (voiced by Ron Perlman) and descend into the grim and gritty world of Purgatory in this fast-paced twin-stick shooter that’ll put your skills to test. Dodge behind cover as you try to outgun your enemies in the unknown procedurally generated hunting grounds. The Wild West has never been this dark.

Key Features:

  • Twin-stick shooter with tactical cover usage.
  • A dark and gritty Wild West.
  • Procedural hunting grounds for action variety.
