Brave Lamb Studio is developing a cooperative shooter that can be played alone, too. Movie Games will publish it.

According to Enemy of the State’s Steam page, “Enemy of the State is a shooter video game developed by Brave Lamb Studio and published by Movie Games. It is a top-down shooter for the fans of cooperative action and solo players. Set in a stylized noir world of the 1920s, it lets you climb the ladder of criminal notoriety. It’s the time of Prohibition. The golden age of mobsters. You are a low-level criminal with ethnicity of your choosing, aspiring to become a true mafia boss. Gather your gang and perform all kinds of jobs all over the world. From heists to turf takeovers to kidnappings and assassinations. Your goal? Same as always. Money, power, and respect.

A lone wolf or a team player? Play as a lone wolf or with friends in a three-player cooperative play. Choose your class, customize your mobster and conquer the world. Make your background American, African-American, Irish, Japanese, or Chinese. Get better, grow more robust, and unlock perks, cosmetics, and outfits. Feel the kick of Tommy guns, shotguns, revolvers, pistols, dynamite sticks, and other iconic weapons. If you need them to kick harder, upgrade them! And if you’re looking to spice up your action, try obscure historical weapons from Japan or China.

Prepare for new jobs in your fully customizable hideout. It’s also your hub where you can hang out with other players and form syndicates that compete for notoriety online! Visit beautiful, detailed 1920s locations from all over the world. The game’s powerful art style was inspired by art deco, Dishonored, classic noir films and comics. Story-based campaigns and cooperative jobs. Varied missions, from heists to turf takeovers. Deep combat with customizable weapons and a cover system.
