Press release:
PQube (London, UK) – 31/01/2022.
The UK-based indie games publisher PQube and Spain-based indie games developer Playstark, today announced with great delight and thrill that their roguelike third-person shooter “Die After Sunset: First Dawn” is coming to PC via Steam Early Access on February 11th, 2022.

“Die After Sunset” is a 3rd person roguelite with a unique light and darkness mechanic. In a race against the inevitable sunset, it’s up to you to tool up with an astonishing array of items, gadgets and weapons to help you take down colossal Murkor bosses! But remember, death is not the end – for every defeat will only make your stronger. Collect Mukus from the fallen Murkors and cash it in, back at base to empower yourself for your next run!

Die After Sunset dawns onto early access with:

Two playable characters, two very different playstyles! Play as the pistol wielding, sharp-shooting, time travelling, April! Or assume the role of Rido, a submachine gun-wielding test subject, GONE WRONG!
Three unique levels and bosses! The fight doesn’t stop at Waikiki Beach… Battle vicious bosses on Treasure Island and Mock Town too!
Dozens of items and power ups… Manipulate gravity to change the tide of battles with the gravity grenade or find your own personal drone to even the score! There’s dozens of items and power ups to experiment with.
Multiple missions to undertake and help you gain items you’ll need to fight colossal bosses!
More to come! Multiple updates adding everything from co-op gameplay to brand new characters and levels are all planned for the coming months.
20% off launch week. Grab a great deal with Die After Sunset launching at a discounted price of £9.99 / €11.99 / $11.99!

The alien creature that is responsible for the attack on Earth. Take on the game’s final boss in a brand new level that’ll test your skills to the limits.
