The story

Awesomenauts Assemble! is a conversion of the PC 2D multiplayer online battle arena game Awesomenauts for the PS4/Xbox One. Awesomenauts is a MOBA fitted into the form of an accessible 3-on-3 action platformer. Head out to the online battlefields together with your friends as an online party or in local split screen, and never worry about having to wait for an online match because of drop-in matchmaking! Devise strategies as you upgrade and customize each character's skills to suit your playing style.

What it’s like

Bright, cartoonish 2D art in saturated primaries, with chunky sprite-style characters, big expressive animations and explosive particle bursts that light up the lanes in neon-bright colour. The soundtrack is upbeat and bouncy, leaning on synth and chiptune-tinged pop, and the constant pops of gunfire, lasers and punchy sound effects keep the energy high. It feels frantic but playful: a sugar-rush brawler with the tempo of a sports match and the silliness of a cartoon. Matches are quick and loud, so it suits a party night with friends, couch co-op on a shared screen, or a burst of competitive fun between other things. Intensity is cartoonish action: plenty of blasts, knockouts and lasers, with no gore and no real sense of cruelty. Ideal for players who want chaotic, lighthearted teamwork and short, energetic rounds, and who enjoy upgrading characters as they go.
