Press release:
Oberhaching, Germany, July 12, 2024.
The Istanbul-based (Turkey) indie games publisher SunDust and Oberhaching-based (Germany) indie games developer PRODUKTIVKELLER Studios, are today very proud and glad to announce that their entertaining rhythm game “Disaster Band“, is now available for consoles (PS5, PS4, Xbox Series X/S, Xbox One, and the Nintendo Switch) via digital stores worldwide.
The musical spectrum consists of twelve notes, but endless possibilities. Take one of 15 instruments from classical cornerstones like the violin or try to ‘Meow’ to the 20 classic tracks included. Maybe you fancy more exotic instruments like the kazoo, when you take on the downloadable tracks provided by the ever growing community. With mod.io support all versions for PC and current gen consoles have access to the same great additional content – for free. Or create your own music and upload it for other Disaster Bands to expand their setlist. (*)
While you set out to take on the leaderboards, even failing is fun: With the dynamic sound engine even mistakes can sound good – although that might be in the eye of the beholder. Now multiply the option for musical perfection (remember: practice makes perfect) or failure by 4, when you connect with friends in a low latency online session, and the fun reaches new heights. Did we mention that you can join a multiplayer game regardless of your preferred platform? Yes: Disaster Band supports full cross-platform connectivity, wherever you choose to play.
So what are you waiting for? Dust off your gigbags, grab your friends and go on tour to prove that you have what it takes to be the most successful Disaster Band ever.
