Gamers worldwide, prepare for an adrenaline-charged thrill ride with Jackal, the highly anticipated top-down shooter from the legendary indie game developer Micha Marcinkowski, creator of Soldat, King Arthurs Gold, and Maniac. Announced today on Steam, Jackal merges the relentless brutality of Hotline Miami with a Tarantino-esque narrative set against the gritty backdrop of 1970s Las Vegas. [previewyoutube=2jfRQfgMv_I;full][/previewyoutube] Step into the shoes of a Vegas hitman on a mission to obliterate the local crime lords and loot their gambling dens. In Jackal, players will raid casinos and hotels, executing unsuspecting mobsters in unforgiving close-quarters combat. Success hinges on your ability to wield anything within reachbe it guns, knives, pool cues, chairs, or even household items. No two playthroughs will be the same, thanks to randomly generated rooms and stackable gameplay mutators. "Jackal combines my love of John Wick fight scenes, Scorsese's mobsters, Tarantino's storytelling, and the soul of the 1970s," says the creator Micha Marcinkowski. Jackal is set to launch at the end of Q2 2025. Add the game to your wishlist now, on the Steam Page. ---- I'm looking for beta testers, if you'd like to help me out: Join the Jackal Discord!
