Rise of the Triad: Ludicrous Edition<\/a> has its sights set on a 29th September 2023 release date on Switch and other consoles, Apogee Entertainment, New Blood Interactive, and Nightdive Studios have announced today.<\/p>\n

The game was originally slated to be released in “early 2023” but received a delay<\/a> in July. Now, the Wolfenstein<\/a>-inspired FPS has its crosshairs lined up for launch next month.<\/p>\n

Retro rerelease specialist Nightdive Studio has teamed up with Apogee Entertainment (Quest Master<\/a>) and New Blood Interactive (Dusk<\/a>) to bring this classic ’90s FPS to consoles. The Steam<\/a> version, which came out earlier this year, has been very positively received by players and comes with restored content, new episodes, online multiplayer, and a huge number of gameplay options.<\/p>\n

In case you need to catch up to speed, here’s a summary of what to expect:<\/p>\n

\n

For the first time in ROTT<\/em> history, gear up for all-out carnage on consoles and experience the trailblazing \u201890s FPS as never played before – with a controller! Run and gun across newly added multiplayer maps, and enjoy modern comforts like revamped 4K graphics, increased FOV, and cloud saves.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

\n

Gear up and take aim as an operative of the High-Risk United Nations Task-Force (codenamed H.U.N.T.) on a top-secret investigation off the California coast. Select from five elite soldiers armed with distinct abilities and stats, and stamp out shadowy cult activity wreaking havoc on Los Angeles.<\/p>\n

Navigate twisty labyrinthine lairs and stage an all-out assault with iconic weaponry like dual-wielded pistols and MP-40 machine guns. Turn up the heat with face-melting drunk missiles, and rocket-jump skyward to rain down firepower from above in the world\u2019s first FPS with verticality.<\/p>\n

Feast on fresh content for die-hard operatives including five separate campaigns, expansion packs, and new episodes conceived by the original designers. Dust off untold stories with never-before-seen content from lost beta builds, and rock out to a remixed soundtrack with music choices from every ROTT<\/em> release ever.<\/p>\n

Crank up the LUDICROUS intensity with 11-player cross-play online multiplayer functionality, no dial-up screeching necessary. Engage in classic COMM-BAT deathmatch, take on the world in 10 vs. 1 Hunter mode, and fight for control in the historic \u201cCapture the Triad\u201d mode, gaming\u2019s first ever online capture the flag mode.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
