Skeleton Crew gets Multiplayer and a slew of new modes

Skeleton Crew, the new frantic dungeon-crawling, platform-brawling, co-op adventure for 1-4 players gets full-fledged Multiplayer and new modes. Plus a nifty 10% discount.

Kick, throw and thrash your way to victory in this gothic multiplayer platform brawler. Explore dungeons, unlock new characters, kick butts. All in style, with friends at your side, and with a penchant for dark humor.

What's in this big Update?
The Trick-or-Yeet Edition of Skeleton Crew brings multiplayer in a grand and epic final form!

The Halloween update brings all the multiplayer fixes and ends the Beta period for online multiplayer features as well as introducing multiple new 2-4 player PvP game modes to jump in to and enjoy.

Included in the update are:

  • Team Deathmatch

  • Capture the Chicken

  • Sportsball

  • End of MP Beta

  • 3 new maps for each new mode

New Game modes!

TEAM DEATHMATCH
Classic game mode, use a multitude of items, skills, and attacks (melee and ranged) to take down your opponents either in team or free-for-all gameplay!

SPORTSBALL
In this basketball-a-like, 2 teams will compete and try to kick, throw, or smash the ball into their opponents hoop to score points. Environmental hazards, items, and moving platforms make this a whole new ball game!

CAPTURE THE CHICKEN
In this game mode, 2 teams will attempt to steal the chicken and return it to their coop. Be careful of the fire traps as if the chicken passes through them it’ll be cooked!

What's the Skeleton Crew experience?

  • Fight battles solo or with friends (local multiplayer in final version and online multiplayer launching in Beta) in this frantic dungeon-crawling, platform-brawling, co-op adventure for 1-4 players

  • Pick up, aim and kick everything you can lay your hands on - stunned foes, skulls, brains, rocks, cabbages or even friends

  • 12 playable diverse gothic heroes to find, recruit and upgrade

  • 17 hand-crafted non-linear levels to explore across 3 vast regions

  • Experience fast paced tactical combat as you battle a host of enemies, minibosses and giant bosses

  • Unlock and collect an array of usable scrolls, potions, weapons, traps, staffs, grenade bags and many other items

  • Lush, hand-painted artwork complemented by glossy VFX depicts an atmospheric world of ghosts, demons and ghouls that chills and charms

  • An eclectic, original music soundtrack of 28 tracks, spanning chiptunes, goth electronica and apocalyptic choirs!

Wait, what was that you said about Co-Op?
Skeleton Crew can be played as a solo adventure or with friends, either online (launching in Beta) or via couch co-op. Owning your own adventure is awesome and it's equally awesome to team up with friends (or enemies) to vanquish the evils of Karpathia together.

Both single and co-op offer a range of ways to attack, defend, and traverse the world levels.

It's not just for combat, but joining forces can help you activate levers and the like to help further progress through the level or to open up secret areas. While I slay these ugly skeleton bois how about you get to work on raising that super thick gothic door or lowering the draw bridge.
