RIP 3: The Last Hero coming to North American shores, screens, details
Thanks to Meridian4, Elephant Games’ high-paced, top-down arcade shooter RIP 3: The Last Hero will be officially published, represented and distributed in North America.
In an official press release made recently, the company formally known as White Elephant (creators of the RIP franchise) announced their publishing agreement with Meridian4 to distribute the third title to the RIP series in U.S. and Canada.
If you didn’t know, this Indie game title showed how simple shooting concepts can be mind-numbingly fun, like some games have succeeded in doing.
The title, while very light on hardware requirements and nothing close to next-gen 3D shooters, made a cult following in the Indie Games Festival (IGF) and is making quite a ruckus in the online gaming community. Plus, it even runs in Windows Vista (for version 1.5).
The new title, featuring freakishly zany graphics and extreme (LAN and hotseat) multiplayer gameplay, is an easy picking for the gamer who loves C-Dogs or even Crimsonland. CEO of Elephant Games, Pahmutov Andrey, added:
We present another part of the RIP series, RIP 3: The Last Hero, which has lots of new features and changes. We are really excited about having it published by Meridian4 and hope you will enjoy this game as well as the [predecessors].
There has been no official release date announced for the game, but it is currently available online through shareware downloads.
