How do our heroes detox after a stressful week of surviving a zombie apocalypse? The stars of Dead Drop Studios’ upcoming Outbreak: Shades of Horror, Lydia and Hank, enjoy an entertaining night out to test a hot new arcade game! What’s better than slaughtering zombies day in and day out? Laying waste to bright pink ones with heavy artillery, of course!

Collect ammo and blast your way out across seven unique scenarios! Enjoy a deliciously corny and fully-voiced adventure in Story, practice individual levels and secure the best rank in Score Attack, and take on a never-ending horde of zombies in Onslaught! In all modes, special and varied enemy monsters ensure Railbreak stays rotten - we mean fresh! 

Strap up and play your way with optional co-op support and customizable controls including optional support for Sinden Lightguns on PC platforms! Choose from multiple difficulty settings so that even the fairest summer child or the most rugged arcade veteran can leave the undead resting in pieces. Unlock seven playable characters with distinctive load-outs to really shake-up your playthrough!

With the latest technology courtesy of Unreal Engine 5, Railbreak steps up the arcade experience with delightfully disgusting visuals; volumetric lighting, stunning weather effects, and more will dazzle you while you explore diverse environments. Be careful where you shoot! Railbreak’s fully-featured dismemberment system isn’t just for show; taking out certain limbs can either help or hinder your chances of survival!

Dead Drop Studios is excited to unveil major new features. With all new abominations to obliterate, our heroes’ tools of destruction have received an upgrade, and so have the places to use them! Destructive elemental weapons, monstrous boss beasts, the absurdly entertaining ‘Glitch’ system, and new modes such Boss Rush round out a meaty on-rails arcade shooter experience!

With so many abominations to obliterate, our heroes’ tools of destruction have received an upgrade. Potent elemental effects now multiply Railbreak’s non-stop carnage. Blaze through the undead masses with fiery bullets or let zombie friends know how ‘ice it is to meet them’ with shots that freeze them in place. Light up enemies with electrical charges, and once they’re sufficiently sparked, watch them detonate! Explosive rounds clean up the undead threat but leave quite a mess in aisle Z. Survivors must master the elements if they want to live!

When Railbreak’s formidable bosses come out of the woodwork, players will need to break out the heavy artillery.  Whether the devious Kunoichi brings her katana out to play or the raucous Hacknslash decides to get up close and personal with his dual chainsaws, peril is on the menu. The gargantuan Slab obscures players’ vision in more ways than one, and the eruptive Boom Boom can spell doom-doom for the unprepared. The bar is raised even higher when bosses show up and show off in souped-up ‘Glitched’ forms, granting them tons more power, speed, and health! 

No one wants to be cornered by these fiends in a dark alley!

The virtual world of Cypress Ridge becomes even more unstable with modifiers known as ‘Glitches’ that trigger throughout the game. Some Glitches can be a major help, like randomly restoring health, while others may be a major hindrance (can you say grenade roulette?). Enemies may suddenly have far more health, weapon ammo may erratically switch between elements, and player accuracy may be tested when only headshots deal significant damage. 

With a huge number of ‘Glitch’ types and combinations, Survivors will always be on their toes!

Three new ways to play join the previously announced Score Attack, endless Onslaught, and fully-voiced Story modes! Looking for more chaos? The roguelike Glitch Gauntlet makes every playthrough unique with random ‘Glitch’ conditions constantly stirring up trouble. Need a serious challenge? Lay waste to Cypress Ridge’s most fearsome creatures in the slimy sewers of Boss Rush! Fiending for a quick burst of action?  Shoutout Shootout provides a bonus scenario that serves as a bloody sweet tribute to longtime Dead Drop Studios supporters.

Enjoy score tracking and optional two-player co-op support for each of Railbreak’s whopping SIX modes! Purge the undead regardless of your skill level with five difficulty options. Freshen up every round with a total of EIGHT unlockable characters, each with a unique loadout. If you’re playing on PC, take advantage of optional support for Sinden Lightguns for an authentic arcade experience! Finally, customize your graphics options to your heart’s content with a slew of useful settings, and learn all about the game’s mechanics with an exhaustive built-in ‘How to Play’ menu!

“All of the new features and modes announced today multiply the depth and fun of Railbreak’s addictive action,” says Julia Wolbach, co-founder of Dead Drop Studios. “The new boss zombies, engaging Glitch system, and enhanced weapon variety combine to make Railbreak a sure-fire hit just in time for the holiday season.”
