Akupara Games has announced that Chicken Assassin: Reloaded will be smashing its way to the Nintendo Switch eShop this summer, and the announcement trailer above is definitely something to behold. "E - I - E - I - OO!!"
You'll play as Mean Mcallister, the meanest, baddest, funkiest chicken we've ever seen, as he fights his way through multiple hordes of enemies to save his kidnapped girlfriend, Candy. You must punch, shoot, and slice your way to Candy’s heart in a story full of over-the-top humour that boasts colourful enemies and attractive levels and environments.

You'll also encounter special bosses along the way and, as you progress, you can upgrade Mean with various fighting styles and skills, access an arsenal of weapons to dish out some serious punishment, and customise clothing that boosts your stat attributes.
GAME FEATURES:
- 11 Epic Missions - Punch, slash, and shoot with Mean Mcallister through glorious missions, including a new mission with an epic barbarian tribe - “The First Siege!”
- Endless Mode - Survive an onslaught of the most difficult enemies in a brand new game mode that will test your endurance...you may want to use the bathroom before attempting
- Over 450+ unique items - Who doesn’t like loot?
- Visually stunning environments and gorgeous art filled with hidden characters and easter eggs - Our stuff belongs in a museum
- Boss Raids - Feel like a challenge? Take on special bosses along the mission path for special loot. Only the fastest button-mashers should apply!
- Deep Customisation - Mix and match different clothing and weaponry loadouts to boost and customise Mean Mcallister’s stats and overall look
- Rooster Tales - Achievement system that rewards you with moola...so that you can buy more stuff
- Black Market - It’s always good to know a guy, who knows a guy, who can get you what you need for the right price
The game is scheduled to bully its way onto the Switch on 17th July. Will you be giving this one a go?

Well, that sure is... different. Could he be a distant future cousin of the raging chickens of Hyrule? Friendly and touching soundtrack as well...
Also: yay me!
Initial image made me think of Rocketbrids: Hardboiled Chicken, but it doesn't appear to be anything like that. Though it was hard to see from the trailer constantly being on fire and zooming in all the time :/
This kind of looks like One Finger Death Punch, where your character is constantly in the center of the screen and all you do is press the attack button at the correct time. Basically the simplest for of brawler possible.
...That was a lot of screaming.
Thrash Metal to promote a trash game.
Okay.
Quite like idle games
@RyanCraddock Considering the type of game, the setting and the characters, the byline/tagline of the article should perhaps have read: "Yippee ki yay, motherclucker"...
This looks absolutely terrible, yet it will still probably make bank.
This looks awful...
That trailer was a horrible way to start my day.
@ThanosReXXX You're absolutely right. Where were you when I needed you?!
@SmaggTheSmug Ugh, I think you're right. These types of games are so friggin lazy from a developer's standpoint. Even my crappy attempt at a mobile game had left-right movement.
@RyanCraddock Not spending nearly enough time on here, apparently...
That music in the trailer alone makes this game a hard pass and I will ensure it never sees the light of day on my switch
That trailer...oh my...?!
