'Jay and Silent Bob: Chronic Blunt Punch' Comes To Nintendo Switch, PS5, Xbox Series X|S And PC On 4/20 - Trailer

Jay and Silent Bob: Chronic Blunt Punch is a colorful side-scrolling 2.5D, over-the-top multiplayer tag-team brawler whose action escalates as the player travels deeper into the mall of purgatory.

In Jay and Silent Bob: Chronic Blunt Punch, players get into a tag team combo fight fest and wreak havoc on their foes with fists, feet, and the magic of self-esteem-destroying jibes while embarking on a mission to find their long-lost pot customers trapped in an Orwellian mega super shopping mall. The mall turns out to be a Utopian labyrinth with apartments, restaurants, hospitals and everything that a post-World War II nuclear bunker would contain—with a candy coating of fun.

Longtime fans of Kevin Smith’s Askew-niverse, the Interabang team is creating a game that captures the satire and irreverence of the movies and brings back the tone of the gone-before-its-time Clerks cartoon series.

Interabang Entertainment is creating the narrative through environment, design, combat and a new conversation combat system called the Convo Combo mode. This mechanic changes the dynamics of enemy showdowns through cutting insults combined with an intricate facial animation system that bonds dynamic fighting with timed phrase matching. This delivers a completely different kind of storytelling experience. Jay and Silent Bob: Chronic Blunt Punch also includes co-op play, where players finish each other’s combos, and create havoc in the world’s largest mall.

Kevin Smith and Jason Mewes will contribute voiceovers and storyline feedback for continuity and dynamic gameplay. We will work with many talented folks  who have taken part in other Kevin Smith classics such as Chasing Amy and Mallrats in order to keep the worlds consistent and true to the View Askew-niverse.


“We set out to create a great game set in Kevin Smith’s Askewniverse, and the result authentically represents what makes his movies so memorable and hilarious,” says Interabang’s Co-Founder and Creative Director, Justin Woodward. “We’re excited to see what fans of Kevin Smith and arcade beat-em-ups think of it!”

"We said it was coming, and here it is," said Kevin Smith. "An incredible amount of effort and artistry went into Chronic Blunt Punch and I am excited to share that everyone can start playing on 4-20."

Jay and Silent Bob: Chronic Blunt Punch is available for preorder now on PCPlayStation 5Xbox Series X|S, and Nintendo Switch at a 10-percent discount at $17.99.

Jay and Silent Bob's customers are gone and they're on a mission to find out why. Their search soon leads them to the sparkling new mega-mall which is almost a  city unto itself  complete with apartments, restaurants, hospitals, and schools.  On the surface, the mall seems a Utopia.  But as our heroes soon discover once a  would-be patron of this paradise enters they find they can't make their way out.  Before long the power of the place mesmerizes them and they no longer remember their lives before becoming permanent citizens of The Galleria.  Who's responsible for this diabolical labyrinth?!  What do they want?!  Will Jay and Silent Bob ever find the Orange Julius?!  Only time will tell...

Jay and Silent Bob: Chronic Blunt Punch  escalates as the player delves deeper into the guts of The Galleria. Familiar mall destinations warp and twist as our heroes crawl closer to The Galleria's black heart.  The regular combat is inspired by games like Godhand and Marvel vs. Capcom spliced with the tag team mechanics of Donkey Kong Country.   Players can play cooperatively with friends, finish each other’s combos, and hurl havoc in the largest mall in the world.  

With the Convo Combo mechanic, players alter a branching story line and shape the outcome of boss interactions through fast-paced, dirty dozen, insult-driven combat.  It feels like a fighting game, but instead of breaking your opponent's body your aim is to break them in a much more permanent psychological way.  Or, if flattery and persuasion is more to your taste, you might try to avoid the fight entirely, perhaps even making an ally in the process.  We are  putting together an intricate facial animation system to articulate the expressive nature of insult combat.

Jay and Silent Bob: Chronic Blunt Punch is coming to PC (Steam), PS5, Xbox Series X|S, and Nintendo Switch on April 20, 2026.
