Game Highlights:

• Boomer-Shooter Brutality: Fast, relentless run-and-gun gameplay and a dynamic gore system.
• A Toolbox of Execution: Wield genre-defining classics like the Nailgun, Shotgun, and lightning-infused Impaler, or close the distance with a razor-sharp sword or skull-crushing warhammer.
• Progression Through Carnage: Discover secrets, improve your character, and find upgrades for your weapons to unlock the full potential of devastating firepower.
• Single-Player, Co-op, and PvP: Fight alone or with friends as you tear though hordes of enemies. And if your bloodlust is still not quenched, PvP will provide additional satisfaction.
• Dark Narrative Set in a Nightmarish World: Serve a necromancer shrouded in mystery as you piece together his secrets in a nightmarish medieval fantasy setting.

The Steam page has been locked behind an age wall too in certain regions, which is the first I've seen for a non-sex game. I actually had to verify my age on Steam in the UK to even see it. It may be due to the graphical nature of the enemies in this one, with the Steam page noting "Some characters such as Ghouls (undead prisoners) wear little to no clothing with genitalia exposed in some cases" which can be toggled off. There's far far worse on Steam that is not behind forced age verification. This age tracking silliness from various countries is such a nuisance.
