Supertrick Games and GungHo Online Entertainment have launched the game on PlayStation 5 and PlayStation 4, but not yet on PC.

In the video below, you can see what to expect in the first season of Deathverse: Let It Die. Let’s see what the game has to offer: “In Deathverse: Let It Die, players compete in a 16-player survival battle arena as contestants of the world-renowned television program “Death Jamboree.” Flanked by your trusty robot companion, Wilson, you must fight off, defend against, and outsmart enemies in player-versus-player-versus-environment mayhem to be the last contestant standing.

After the seismic calamity known as “Earth’s Rage,” humanity is brought to extinction. Scarred by the horrors they’ve faced, the survivors feed their bloodlust with the deadly and decadent “Death Jamboree.” Anyone can compete on the sinister television show to win fortune and favour, but once you’re in the arena, there’s only one way out: killing the competition. To become a star, prove your strength against others in Ranked Matches online, or let loose to test your skills in Exhibition Mode. Players can also group up with friends in Room Matches.

Players can choose between the Machete, Hammer, Arms, Buzzsaw, and–Uncle Death’s favourite–the Katana. Compete in matches to increase your weapon’s level and stats, and collect materials to craft more powerful weapon variations. If you can’t wait to add to your weapon collection, look out for Twin Knives coming out in Season 1 later this year. Matches occur in various stages, called Units, each with distinct zones. As the clock runs down, contamination increases and the area you fight in grows smaller. Staying in a contaminated zone spells your doom. If you are crafty, you can catch a foe by surprise from the high ground, hide in tall bushes, or stalk your prey from the shadows. Those who take advantage of the terrain are more likely to survive.

Bloodcurdling Cryptids roam the battlefield, and when the cutthroat Hunters enter the area, there are only two options: run or die. During Season 1, players can look forward to three different Hunters who will join battles on rotation: Hunter Q, Hunter G, and Hunter M. Each have unique abilities, so learn them quickly to stay alive. Pick up items like Mushrooms and Sub-skills to modify your skills and boost your chances for survival. You can also find Materials used for crafting and upgrading weapons and skins. Items are dropped when you kill enemies or break boxes across the field.

Killing in a flashy way, especially using a Final Judgment, will earn Good Points (GP) from the “Death Jamboree” audience. GP increases your Voltage (comparable to health in other games) and attack power, so you’ll want to be a fan favourite if you plan on surviving. There’s nothing more embarrassing than wearing the same outfit as another killer – avoid that with dozens of customization items! Mix and match outfits, Wilson skins, shield skins, and more to create a look to die for. You can also decorate your waiting room to prepare for the battle in style.

If you can’t wait for more Deathverse: Let It Die content, you’re in luck. In November, the “Let It Die Collection Vol. 1″ will introduce a limited-time Metro Fighter skin and Uncle Death shield skin based on the original Let It Die. In Season 2, beginning winter/spring 2023, players can look forward to Cup Matches and a Masters tournament to decide the best killer contestant of the season, plus a new, unannounced weapon. Season 3 will be Let It Die-themed and feature another weapon, a new Hunter, and the limited-time Duo Death Match event, letting players pair up against their foes. Both seasons will include new types of existing weapons. In the future, Deathverse: Let It Die will be updated with PlayStation / Steam cross-play, HDR support, accessibility features, recording/replay features, and the ability to change the background music.”

Deathverse: Let It Die is already running on PlayStation 5 and PlayStation 4, and the free-to-play multiplayer survival game will be available on PC (Steam) from October 5.
