'Uragun' Early Access Delayed, Now Planned For April 2022

Uragun is a bloody action slaughterhouse in a classic, top-down style, which is a tribute to old-school 2D shooters.

The main story is based on the fight against machines controlled by artificial intelligence, which the player must outsmart. For many years people have devoted most of the planet's resources to the improvement of AI-based technologies. Thus, unfortunately, they stopped paying attention to the change in the environment. Everything changes due to a natural disaster causing the water level to rise in the whole world.

Humanity was forced to migrate inland, but in order to succeed the help of machines managed by artificial intelligence was essential.

At some point, AI decides to decimate humanity to prevent further disasters, and mankind's once benevolent creations turned into killing machines. Humankind stands no chance against countless masses of bots printed in giga-factories all over the globe. In a desperate attempt to deal a decisive blow to machines, the most brilliant minds of humankind put a genius e-sport player in charge of the ultimate weapon. Remotely controlled from the International Space Station, the last achievement of human engineering rises to liberate Earth.

The levels of the game are based on a real layout of the world's biggest metropolises. The game will allow gamers to sit behind the wheel of a powerful mech fighting waves of super-intelligent, AI-controlled bots, spreading on the streets of famous cities.

This war mech is called Uragun. And you are the pilot.

Now you can unleash your rage against the machines in the name of humankind. You are a weapon of mass destruction, but remember – your chances are limited.

Start the war with your Uragun-001 soon.


Initially planned for March 30th, Uragun will now officially go into Early Access on April 12, 2022.

The feedback received during Uragun’s Steam Next Fest demo was integral in helping the Kool2Play team decide that a slight delay was necessary for final additions and bug fixes, with the release now planned to be 2 weeks later.

Uragun is releasing as an Early Access title, with the intention to build upon the initial gameplay foundation with community feedback. To start, players will be able to experience over 25 levels in Barcelona, Hong Kong, and the Northern Cascades. With a variety of enemies, weapon types, and the first major boss fight.

Post Early Access launch, Kool2Play will share a roadmap, highlighting the planned direction of content for the upcoming year.

Key Features:

  • Play as a cute-but-deadly mech unit and “cook” him just the way you like it
  • Upgrade your weapons with mods, granting them awesome bonuses
  • Experiment, find your perfect combo, improvise your way out of trouble
  • Grow your mech thanks to an in-depth player progression
  • Visit familiar locations – here as futuristic biomes controlled by enemy AI

Uragun is in development for PC (Steam).
