'Guntouchables' Is A Cooperative Roguelite Shooter Coming To Steam Early Access In Spring 2025 - Screens & Trailer

Guntouchables is an online cooperative action roguelike shooter set in a post-apocalyptic world for 1-4 players.

In the apocalyptic disaster of their dreams, this group of plucky preppers will need to stick to their guns and clean up the consequences of an experiment gone wrong.

In Guntouchables the world has been overrun by a throng of hostile, bloodthirsty mutants, and here to save the day are the only heroes the world has left: Doomsday Preppers! Ready to say “I told you so” with an armful of guns and a closet full of toilet roll, this eclectic mix of disaster-ready survivors must band together to reclaim the world and defeat the constantly mutating hordes. This team of discount earth defenders features four different survivors, including Marcus the Doctor, Karen the Scouter, Mr. Bang the Commando and Alfred the Sharpshooter. Each character has a distinctive set of skills and unique upgrades to unlock, bringing tactics, synergies and builds to master.

Guntouchables features a roguelike gameplay loop with a twist: as you evolve into a mutant slaying machine — your foes will mutate alongside you! As players fight to survive through each mission collecting upgrades and consumables for their run, they will also need to decide how their enemies grow stronger as well. With every great reward comes great risk, meaning each run will bring with it new challenges, new arsenals, and new threats.

 


The Steam Early Access launch will just be the beginning. Guntouchables is designed to be a heavy and easily expandable experience, and any content additions will increase the possible outcomes and combinations exponentially.

We want to invite anyone who is interested, to join our community on Discord or follow the game's development on our other channels.

We are striving to be as open, fair and transparent as possible about the game's development and launch. We believe this attitude will bring us closer and more in tune with the players, and allow us to make better decisions, and a much more engaging experience, but we ultimately depend on the support from you.

"Guntouchables is a great fit for Ghost Ship Publishing, with all the addictive elements that we love about co-op shooters. We can’t wait to see the community Game Swing builds around it,” said Ghost Ship Publishing CEO Søren Lundgaard.

"Joining the Ghost Ship Publishing family is a dream come true. We’ve spent over a decade developing entertaining multiplayer games, and Guntouchables is the culmination of everything we have learnt so far,” commented Game Swing CEO Martin Kai Sommer.

Key Features:

  • No one could have foreseen the end of times, but anyone could have prepared for it: You must choose your character and play your part as one of the Guntouchables - a ragtag group of irrepressible survivors who’s been spending years preparing for the direst scenarios imaginable. Now they are facing the disaster of their dreams!
  • Fortune Favors the Bold!: Complete mission objectives and collect UpCrates for Cash and Perks that will increase your chances of survival in the wasteland as difficulty gradually escalates. Every second counts, and every reward is associated with a risk. Success must be found in the delicate sweet spot between boldness and greed.
  • Evolving Enemies: Between each mission, players must vote between a random selection of mutations that will grant enemies new traits and abilities. Fortunately, this choice will also offer the players immediate or long-term benefits, making the decision less obvious but more critical.
  • Hoard Upgrades: Player upgrades are at the heart of the Guntouchables and crucial to help you keep up with the scaling difficulty. Combine common and class-specific perks and abilities to form powerful and creative builds.
  • Mod Your Guns: You won't make it long in the apocalypse without the right set of tools. Guntouchables feature a sizable and widely expandable arsenal of high-powered guns. Choose a loadout that fits your style and then mod it with upgrades to your personal preference. A clever combination of perks and gun mods will turn you into an unstoppable mutant killing machine in no time.

Guntouchables will be launching through PC (Steam Early Access) in Spring 2025.
