'Lynked: Banner Of The Spark' Is A Co-op Action Hack-And-Slash, Coming To Steam Early Access In October - Screens & Trailer

Lynked: Banner of the Spark is an arcade-inspired co-op action game where playing together goes beyond the run.

Team-up, brawl and build in this co-op action game that blends hack and slash combat with roguelite-inspired missions and town-building progression that goes beyond the run!

Unlock and upgrade gear, rescue robot allies, and lead the resistance against the world-dominating Combots!

In the year 30XX, humanity is on the verge of extinction. As one of the last survivors, you must form alliances with the robot resistance to defend against the world-dominating Combots. Rescue robot allies, explore their stories, and uncover the fate of the legendary group of bots known as the Banner of the Spark.

In Lynked: Banner Of The Spark you are tasked to lead the fight against the Combots—lethal machines intent on destroying the natural world. Engage in electrifying co-op missions with non-stop hack and slash combat and roguelite progression. Expand your town to unlock and upgrade weapons and abilities between runs, recruit new robotic allies, and build a resistance strong enough to reclaim the future.


“We got tired of building dark, gory games, so we formed FuzzyBot to make fun, vibrant worlds with a ton of action,” said Max Spielberg, FuzzyBot Co-Founder and Game Director. “We're super proud to share the world of Lynked: Banner Of The Spark with everyone! And honestly, we're just excited we finally got to make a fishing minigame…”
