Publisher Amazon Games and developer Glowmade announced a release window for King of Meat, a new cooperative hack-and-slash game for multiple platforms.
King of Meat is in development for Windows PC (via Steam), Xbox Series X|S, Switch, and PlayStation 5 with a release now set for later in 2025.
Here’s a rundown on the previously announced game:
King of Meat is a colourful combat spectacle that pits Contenders against creative dungeon masterpieces. With a combination of creative co-op combat, user-generated dungeons, and ridiculous customisation options, King of Meat brings countless possibilities to express your own creativity. Build your own dungeons to challenge other players, outsmart other Contenders and their cunning puzzles, or team up with your friends and fellow Contenders to defeat skeletons, trolls, and other ridiculous monsters. Or just outshine them all with your dazzling custom appearance.
But make sure you bring the thunder! KING OF MEAT puts you at the centre of a survival gameshow, set in the mystical and exciting world of Loregok. Progress with your corporate sponsors to unlock new outfits, weapons, attacks or even new items to decorate your dungeons. Remember, it’s all fun and games until someone loses an arm… then it’s just fun.
Key Features
- Become The Ultimate Contender – As a contender, battle through joyfully unhinged dungeons with a team of up to four, to be crowned victorious. As you progress and your fame rises, unlock new leagues, new environments, traps and challenges to beat. But don’t forget that you have an audience to impress, so you must utilize weapons, combos and over-the-top Glory Moves to complete dungeons in the most imaginative ways. Sounds easy? It is, once you’ve gotten past the lava pits, ice traps, giant hammers, angry trolls, flying eyeballs and psychotic imps.
- Build For Battle As A Dungeon Creator – Take dungeon creation into your own hands in King of Meat’s Create Mode, where you are given the tools to create the dungeons of your dreams — and someone else’s nightmares. All the dungeons in King of Meat have been created with the same tools that you will use to create your own dungeons, so if you can play it, you can build it. The intuitive tools mean that you can curate the most intricate and challenging dungeons with ease, and become the most revered dungeon creator that all of Loregok fears and celebrates!
- Stand Up and Stand Out With Customization – In King of Meat creative self-expression is encouraged, welcomed and rewarded. The deep customization suite in the game lets you choose outfits, accessories and emotes to show off your style and creativity. Want to play as a flaming eagle covered in horns with a duck on your head? Or perhaps you’d like to be a multicoloured urban gladiator with honeycomb boots and a sausage hammer? Whatever your style, we got you. But it’s not just about what you look like, after all, you’re on a survival game show with a demanding audience waiting to be entertained. The customization suite also contains weapons, attacks and Glory Moves which will give you and your team mates the ability to run the dungeons, and celebrate your victories, in the most chaotic and entertaining ways possible.
