Press release:
Paris, France – August 22, 2022.
The Paris-based (France) indie games publisher Red Art Games and indie games developer Deepnight Games (which is a one-man studio that’s run by Sébastien Benard), are today very pleased and excited to announce that their dynamic 2D action game “Nuclear Blaze” is coming to consoles (PS4, Xbox One, and the Nintendo Switch) in early 2023.

“Nuclear Blaze” is the latest game from Sébastien Bénard, creator of the critically and publicly acclaimed “Dead Cells”. “Nuclear Blaze” is being ported to consoles by Red Art Games.

Red Art Games will bring the heat when it will release Nuclear Blaze on consoles worldwide early next year digitally. Information regarding physical versions of Nuclear Blaze will come at a later date.

Nuclear Blaze is a dynamic 2D Action game in which the player assumes the control of an experienced firefighter dropped in the middle of a massive fire. In addition to keeping the fire under control with his trusty hose, the hero must investigate the circumstances behind the catastrophe. To complete the perilous mission, the player can rely on smooth controls and tight gameplay mechanics crafted by Dead Cells’ lead designer Sébastien Bénard.

The celebrated Game Designer rejoices about Nuclear Blaze’s upcoming console release and his collaboration with Red Art Games:

“Working with Red Art Games truly was a great pleasure. I know full well that this is what everybody is expecting to read in a press release but in this case, the team put in some meticulous and high quality work, which made the console port of Nuclear Blaze possible.”

Members of the press, bloggers and content creators will have the opportunity to play an early version of Nuclear Blaze during Gamescom 2022 at Red Art Games’ booth located in the Business Area (Hall 3.2, Booth B-052). For more information or to book an appointment, please contact Bérangère Bultel (Marketing Manager).
