Fight off a planet-wide fungal catastrophe in the upcoming co-op shooter Mycopunk

From developer Pigeons at Play and Devolver Digital, Mycopunk is one of those games where you see a few seconds of footage in the trailer, get totally sold and instantly stick it into your wishlist. There's also a demo available to try.

Your ragtag gang of robot rejects have been hired by the universal megacorp SAXON for one last shot at profitable glory (and avoiding the scrap heap). You are the New Atlas Hazard Crew, a ramshackle squad of exterminators sent to uncover the mysteries behind a planet-wide fungal catastrophe. You get an arsenal of crazy weapons and power tools, and you get to supercharge them with what they're saying is a " one-of-a-kind grid-based upgrade system to create the ridiculous sci-fi super-weapon of your dreams". Yeah, I'm definitely 100% sold on this. I need it.

This looks like one of the absolute wildest shooters in terms of world and creature design I've seen for a while. Absolutely love the style of it and the action looks intense too. Check out the trailer:

I tested out the demo on Desktop Linux with the latest Proton 10 Beta, and it worked perfectly. Even if the trailer didn't sell me on it, the gameplay definitely would have. Chaotic, good fun and some really interesting game mechanics. Shooting enemies and watching them fall apart, and have pieces remain alive and be picked up by others, it's really something. This has quickly turned into one of my most anticipated games for 2025.

The developer said on Steam that they're "planning to get it steam deck ready for full release" too.

This is one to watch, could easily end up being the next big co-op shooter.
