If, like me, you’d quite like to dress up like a banana and go on a zombie-killing rampage, then look no further than Deadly Days: Roadtrip, a game that promises to let you do just that.
Not only do you get to dress up silly and headshot zombie shufflers, but this quirky-looking roguelite sequel looks like it blends in inventory management elements to create a survival experience with a bit more depth than your standard Vampire Survivors clone.
If that sounds of interest to you, then I have jolly news because this fever dream of an action-roguelite just got a confirmed release date and trailer to go with it. If moving pictures are your thing, check out Pixelsplit’s indie actioner below!
The date for your diary is September 22, at which point Deadly Days: Roadtrip will be available in Early Access on PC (Win). If that’s too far off in the distance for you, and you simply must don that banana suit right this very second, there’s already a demo available for you to try.
