Flux Game Studio has announced that its hilariously ultraviolent fighter GUTS (Gory Ultimate Tournament Show) is available on PC today. The game features singleplayer and multiplayer modes, as we well as a pretty interesting (if gory) mechanic for fighting.
Set in the year of 2067, GUTS is a deadly reality TV show that feeds the bloodlust of a dystopian Earth. Players compete in bloody arenas to earn fame and fortune as the world’s next fighting idol. In order to be the best, players must master special combination moves, learn the ropes of the different move sets that change according to how many limbs they still have left, time their severing attacks and evade their opponent’s deadly blades.
GUTS is a radical fighting game that introduces original fighting game mechanics and eliminates health bars and timers. Instead, players must dismember their opponents by using deadly GUTS Moves to chop off arms and legs. Even while missing a limb or two, the brawl continues until one fighter emerges victorious. If nine lethal opponents weren’t enough, the controversial and politically incorrect world of GUTS features online and local multiplayer, party game modes as well as in a single-player story mode with a total of 18 different endings – two per character.
The genre-changing game features a dual-layered combo system that makes it easy to play so that someone new to fighting games may button-mash their way into dismemberments, while simultaneously allowing more seasoned fighting-game fans to perform amazing combos and difficult move sets and play at a professional competitive level.
In addition to the currently available PC version, Flux Game Studio has announced a console release for GUTS next year. Stay tuned for more news here on Gaming Trend.
