Devolver Digital’s second ever E3 video event has revealed the banana and bullet-filled game, My Friend Pedro, will arrive on the Switch eShop in the first quarter of 2019.
Developed by Deadtoast, My Friend Pedro is a violent side-scroller about one man’s quest to obliterate anyone in his path at the behest of a sentient banana. It’ll require players to make strategic use of split aiming mechanics and slow-motion action maneuvers in order to take down mobs of enemies.
Here’s a full list of features from the PR:
Full Throttle Gun Ballet: Unleash a torrent of destruction with an incredible level of control over both your weapons and your body. Twist and turn through the air while aiming both hands at priority threats or line up a perfect ricochet to drop an unsuspecting gangster from behind.
Mix It Up: Break up the high octane running and gunning a bit with dynamic sequences like a thrilling motorcycle chase or slow it all down and take a moment to think through a series of clever (and possibly fatal) physics-based puzzles.
Slow Motion Braggadocio: When the action amps up to a frenzy, bring it all into focus by shifting into slow motion to calm the nerves and steady the aim. Use the game’s automated gif generator to easily share clips of your most over the top sequences over social media.

Dont know anything about this but I'll give it a try
Looks pretty interesting. Hopefully it plays well.
I'm loving this.
That Devolver Digital event was hilarious...and the way they introduced this gun...ballet...slaughter...fest...was great. Can't wait to try it out!
This game looks very interesting, but it’s definitely a “I’ll wait for reviews” one.
@Highlar I just finished watching their event. It was hilarious! I do hope they change their mind about not bringing Metal Wolf Chaos to the Switch. That was a huge surprise, anyway! If nothing else, I'm getting the PC version.
This looks so freaking good. #1 on my wants now.
Well, that came out of nowhere and instantly landed at the top of my wanted list.
Matrix Lobby gunfight in 2D.
Looks a-peel-ing!
This looks awesomely fun! Good job Devolver.
This game looks awesome! Every time I watch this trailer, I see a side-scrolling Deadpool, just... you know... without Deadpool lol
Going bananas for this game.
The man from Del Monte says YES!
Unless it's a samurai game, I just can't envision myself playing a character with a man-bun.
Ooooh banana! The gameplay looks like Bleed and Bleed 2, obviously with a much different art style. Looks fun!
Looks great!
I honestly thought these Devolver Digital games were parodies. Very surprised to see that it's an actual real game.
I already hear the politicians blaming this for future gun violence. Brace yourself, it's gonna happen.
Looks interesting, but i also want Metal Wolf Chaos.
Looks too much fun to ignore - on the wishlist and fingers crossed it delivers.
ILL take 10 copies
So, Bullet-time, The Game
Vote for Pedro?
The trailer looked fantastic. I hope it plays that music whilst I'm playing.

Thought that too
Devolver never disappoints so I’m pretty stoked for this.
John Wick the Platformer
Looks like a unofficial Deadpool game.
You can already play the game, it's a free game from 2014:
