Voivod: The Nuclear Warrior shows off a new prototype trailer of the heavy metal platformer

Chaosmonger Studio continue working on Voivod: The Nuclear Warrior a retro-styled heavy metal platformer in partnership with the band Voivod.

Following on from the successful Kickstarter crowdfunding campaign, they say it has now moved onto "full production" with the new trailer showcasing the game's evolving world: a desolate, post-apocalyptic landscape where mechanical ruins meet cosmic horror, brought to life through hand-crafted pixel art and an original soundtrack shaped by Voivod's unmistakable sound.

From the PR: "Our goal is to make a game that feels like stepping inside a Voivod album cover," says Nicola Piovesan, the game’s director and founder of Chaosmonger Studio. "This new trailer captures the atmosphere and energy that define the band’s universe. It’s both a tribute and a continuation of their legacy."

More from the PR: "The result is a unique creative synthesis: a metal-infused interactive experience where music, art, and storytelling merge into a single audiovisual vision. Combining classic run-and-gun gameplay with exploration and atmosphere, Voivod: The Nuclear Warrior invites players to embody the Voivod himself — a mutant warrior guided by his disembodied mind, Nothingface — on a journey through twisted dimensions inspired by the band’s albums and mythos."

It's due out sometime next year.
