Press release:
Stuttgart, Germany – 2 March 2023.
The Stuttgart-based (Germany) video games publisher Strictly Limited Games and Amsterdam-based (the Netherlands) indie games publisher/developer MY.GAMES, are today very happy and proud to announce that their retro indie platformer/Metroidvania/twin-stick run-and-gun game “Blast Brigade vs. the Evil Legion of Dr. Cread“, is coming physically to consoles (PS5, PS4, and the Nintendo Switch) this Autumn (2023).

Furthermore, Strictly Limited Games and MY.GAMES have also just announced that gamers will be able to pre-order the exclusive and highly limited boxed editions of “Blast Brigade vs. the Evil Legion of Dr. Cread” via the Strictly Limited Games store on March 5th (2023).

These editions will only be available at Strictly Limited Games and will be the only physical version of the game.

About Blast Brigade vs. the Evil Legion of Dr. Cread:
Blast Brigade is a unique blend of Metroidvania and twin-stick run and gun, with a shot of Megaman elements, featuring 4 playable characters with unique abilities and personalities, between which the player can swap at any time. This being a Metroidvania, these abilities are naturally necessary to progress through the interconnected world, as well as discover secrets and materials to upgrade your workshop. And you really want to, because this game won’t be a walk in the park. Even normal enemies can kill you if you are not careful, and for the bosses, pattern memorization is key. Don’t say we didn’t warn you.

Speaking about the world, Blast Brigade manages to stand out here as well, leaning heavily into 80s spy movie tropes with its archetypal characters and the classic setting of a tropical island housing the super villain’s base. Combined with its bright Saturday morning cartoon style graphics and fourth-wall breaking humor, Blast Brigade really manages to stand out in the sea of samey action-platformers.

Features:

ASSEMBLE THE TEAM! Switch between four playable heroes with unique abilities and weapons!

AMAZING ABILITIES! Use a grenade launcher, grappling hook, and сhakram-teleporter to beat foes and challenges!

CRUSH BOSSES! Take down hybrid monstrosities, giant robots, ninjas, and other evil minions!
