Drum to escape death with Double Kick Heroes on Early Access this April

Ready to jam? Headbang Club has announced that it will release its post-apocalyptic rhythm game Double Kick Heroes on April 11 for PC. The game will feature a heavy metal soundtrack complete with zombie crushing, rhythm gameplay.

Lincoln, Snake, Derek, Randi and James; five metalheads who find themselves in the precarious position of surviving the zombie apocalypse. Left on their own in a world gone mad all they have to get by is their heavy metal shredding skills and the ‘Gundillac’. A high speed, upgradeable weapon on wheels powered by the almighty double kick, the Gundillac lays waste to all that chase it down.

Shoot zombies by beating the keyboard just like you’d hammer a drum kit. Sounds easy? Don’t be fooled! Players will have no choice but to master the Double Kick (a drumming technique used to speed up music) if they want to survive as they thrash to an eventual 30 unique metal tracks (18 available in Early Access) composed by the legendary Elmobo. Play through Arcade Mode or venture into the Story Mode, where players just might come across some of their own Heavy Metal Heroes.

Double Kick Heroes will also include a level editor that will allow players to create their own songs. Check out the trailer above, and stay tuned for more news here on Gaming Trend.
