Press release:
Walnut Creek, Calif. (Dec. 16, 2022).
The Walnut Creek-based (California, the US) indie games publisher and developer Modus Games, today announced with great thrill and joy that their rhythm-based fighting game “God of Rock” is coming to PC (via Steam) and consoles (PS5, PS4, Xbox Series X/S, Xbox One, and the Nintendo Switch) on April 18th, 2023!

So starting April 18th next year (2023). “God of Rock” kicks-off its world tour and unleashes a stacked setlist of energetic tracks that players will need to master to perform devastating combos in musical matches against other fighters.

News of the game’s release date was accompanied by a brand-new overview trailer showcasing God of Rock’s unique blend of fighting and rhythmic gameplay:

Think you have what it takes to defeat the most talented artists in the universe? Now’s your chance to test your skills, as attendees of this weekend’s Holiday Matsuri event can get their hands on a new playable demo. Holiday Matsuri is an anime, gaming, cosplay, and pop culture convention that takes place in Orlando, Florida. Learn more about the event at www.holidaymatsuri.com.

Face off against your opponents as one of the universe’s greatest talents, and with the power of your righteous beats, blast them into orbit. You and your enemy will engage in a match just like in any other fighting game, but the actual battle will be driven by rhythm game mechanics. Follow the prompts scrolling across the screen, spurred on by music that’s been dictated by the stage and characters selected, to unleash attacks on your foe.

As battles continue and health bars wear down, the beat will pick up. Keep up with the music, or your attacks will miss their mark. In these fights, the one who loses their groove first will be the one to fall. Special and Ultra attacks must be utilized to their fullest extent to take control of the fight. You’re not a background musician – you’re the lead artist!

God of Rock releases April 18, 2023 on PlayStation® 4/5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, Nintendo Switch and PC.
