Press release:
Serious Sam: Shatterverse, a fresh cooperative roguelite take on the classic FPS series, brings multiverse mayhem to PC and consoles on August 31st.

Hold onto your butts, because multiversal multiplayer roguelite Serious Sam: Shatterverse is charging onto PC, Xbox Series X|S, and PlayStation 5 on August 31! Want a taste of the action now? Join the open Playtest on Steam.

Developed by Behaviour Interactive, the creators of Dead By Daylight, this fresh take on boomer shooter classic Serious Sam brings oh-so-modern cooperative and roguelite elements to the series’ trademark over-the-top FPS action.

Series villain Mental’s maniacal machinations have fractured the walls between universes, and now Sams from multiple dimensions must learn to work together to repair the Shatterverse. You’ll travel across shifting universes to finish battles other Sams couldn’t, fighting alongside alternate versions of yourself to defeat the big bad’s five nefarious lieutenants.

FEATURES

Wield a big, loud, stupid, and frankly irresponsible arsenal of weapons, mixing classic Serious Sam guns and all-new toys plucked from the Shatterverse
High adrenaline run-and-gun FPS combat with big battlefields, non-stop pressure, a lot of backpedaling, and perfectly timed one-liners when everything’s on fire
Leans into Serious Sam’s legacy and pushes it forward with procedurally shifted runs across hand-crafted arenas set in previously unexplored worlds
Navigate unstable anomalies, hidden portals, and high-risk opportunities that can supercharge a run – or end it instantly
Push forward for greater rewards, unlock powerful modifiers, and take advantage of upgrades that permanently expand your possibilities
Face off against massive hordes of enemies including classic Serious Sam foes and fresh monsters under Mental’s control, all begging to be gibbed

You can experience this radical new take on the Serious Sam series when the game launches on August 31 for PC, Xbox Series X|S, and PlayStation 5.
