Press release:
OAKLAND, CA.
The Tokyo-based (Japan) indie games publisher D3PUBLISHER and indie games developer LANCARSE, are today super excited and happy to announce that the full version (v1.0) of their survival rogue-like action game “Ed-0: Zombie Uprising” is now available for PC (via Steam) and consoles (PS5 and Xbox Series X/S) via digital stores.
Originally in Early Access on Steam starting in April 2022, the full global launch of the game comes with numerous new content additions and updates resulting in over 100 gameplay hours. “Ed-0: Zombie Uprising” is available for purchase digitally for a MSRP of $29.99 / €28.99.
Designed for brutal strategic battles in a rogue-like format, Ed-0: Zombie Uprising takes place in a fictional Edo-era Japan where hordes of hungry zombies have raided the isolated country. No dungeon run will be the same, so players’ judgment will be of the utmost importance, having to face “once-in-a-lifetime” challenges with a wide variety of random elements amid dangerous foes.
“Ed-0: Zombie Uprising” includes various undead enemies, ranging from “newly interpreted” Japanese zombies to foreign invaders born after the “Zombie Industrial Revolution.” Players will unlock more as they play (and succeed) with an increasing number of possibilities to customize builds to their liking—with the option to bump up the level of difficulty to test one’s capability.
The launch of “Ed-0: Zombie Uprising” adds a suite of new content including the Ninja as a playable character, five new stages and additional challenge stages and side quests, new bosses and enemy types, Blessings, in-game events, additional character-build options, and more. With the release of version 1.0, D3PUBLISHER has also taken time to address community feedback and implement quality-of-life updates to make for a better overall gameplay experience.
The team has improved the overall rogue-like and action elements, strengthened the utility of Charms, Secret Arts, and items, and added new difficulty options (+Hard, Hell, and Edo) to give players even more flexibility in how they play. Lastly, the team has added an “EDO Shader” option that adds a fun twist to the visual style.
