Press release:
Philadelphia, 2 August 2022.
Publisher Top Hat Studios, in conjunction with developer Molegato, launch their charming, highly anticipated platforming adventure “Frogun” today on PC (Steam, GoG, EGS), Nintendo Switch, Xbox One and Series X|S, and PlayStation 4/5.

Frogun is a nostalgic 3D platformer where players take on the role of Renata, a little girl with an unusual sidekick, a frog that’s a gun – the Frogun – but also her best friend.

In Frogun, players take on the role of Renata as she sets out to rescue her parents, who became lost venturing into Beezlebub’s ancient ruins. Luckily, they left behind their latest invention – the Frogun, an intelligent, frog-shaped grappling tool. Through mystical jungle ruins, dark depths, freezing snow caps, and scorching lava swamps, you’ll hunt for treasure, dodge perilous hazards, and fight dastardly bosses along the way in Frogun.

Full of things to do over 40 levels across six unique themed worlds, the game is stuffed with collectables – ranging from coins, explorer’s notes, unlockable cosmetics, special emeralds, and medals aplenty – Frogun has plenty to discover. Upon 100% completion of the game, players can unlock an expert time trials mode which provides a set of pro times to beat for each level and should serve as a speed runner’s dream.

Digitally, the game is in 2 editions with a 20% discount for launch – the base game ($14.99) and a Digital Deluxe edition ($24.99), which adds various extra goodies such as a 50 page artbook with BTS peeks and concepts, a digital manual, and original soundtrack.

The physical copy of the game contains all digital extras in-game included on-disc or cart, with a Collector’s Edition adding extra swag for collection enthusiasts!
