'Let It Die' (PS4) Surpasses Four Million Downloads

by Rainier on Feb. 12, 2018 @ 8:35 a.m. PST

Let It Die is a free-to-play hack and slash action game with a survival twist.

Set in post-apocalyptic 2026 when a devastating global tectonic disturbance (Earth Rage) destroys and changes much of the world, Southwestern Tokyo split off into the ocean and became an island covered in fog. A giant spire-like structure pierced through the center of the island creating the twisted battleground known as The Tower of Barbs. Daring players will explore and ascend this mysterious tower, all the while fighting off ghastly enemies and horrific bosses, aided by the Grim Reaper, Uncle Death.

Players start with little more than their undergarments and must forage for powerful weapons and armor to do battle with the over-the-top ultraviolent future that waits.

Let It Die also features deep, multilayered asynchronous multiplayer in the form of "death data," where other players' dead bodies will reanimate into a "Hater", a brutal AI opponent, who will roam other player's games and use every tactic and weapon on hand to stop players in their tracks. If they manage to eliminate a Hater, players are able to loot the Hater for rare items to aid in their ascent up The Tower of Barbs. Players will eventually meet Tetsuo, an unsettling robotic NPC, who gives players the chance to join a team and perform raids on enemy bases to steal much needed resources.

GungHo Online Entertainment America and Grasshopper Manufacture's Let It Die has surpassed four million downloads worldwide on the PlayStation Store.

In the past year, GungHo Online Entertainment and Grasshopper Manufacture continued to bring fresh new content to  Let It Die  through robust game updates and exciting partnerships, which has included collabs with premier developers and publishers in gaming that can be found here. The Tower of Barbs has also been frequently updated with new content such as the punishing foes known as THE 4 FORCEMEN, an ever-expanding collection of premium skill decals, seasonal in-game events, and more.

GungHo Online Entertainment will be celebrating Let It Die’s achievement on Feb. 27 with an official livestream on Twitch at 7 p.m. PST. Fans can watch the livestream here.

"I am overjoyed that we were able to achieve four million downloads since Let It Die’s release a year ago,” said Kazuki Morishita, CEO of GungHo Online Entertainment. “Thank you to the fans for their continued support and we will continue to produce more content so that Let It Die can be enjoyed for years to come."
