Mechstermination Art 1080 Nologo

Bertil Hörberg recently released the Gunman Clive HD collection on the Switch eShop, so what's the Swedish-based developer up to now? It turns out he's actually been working on a new game for the past one and a half years, with two others.

Mechstermination Force is a platform action title where you take on gigantic bosses with powerful weapons and upgrades. Hörberg describes it as a cross between the Contra series and the PlayStation 2 masterpiece, Shadow of the Colossus. The game will apparently be "a lot bigger" than the Gunman Clive games and arrives this Spring on the Switch eShop.

Below is the full PR along with the features:

Join the Mechstermination Force and save the world from the gigantic MegaMechs!

Battle against massive bosses, jump and climb onto them to find their weakspots and blow them to kingdom come in this action packed platforming boss rush, from the creator of the Gunman Clive series.

When the MegaMechs have taken control of the world, one small group of brave soldiers are still fighting for humanity's independence. Join them and lead the charge against the mechanical menace.

Get powerful weapons and upgrades! Use the Magnet Gloves to climb on top of robots the size of Skyscrapers, double jump over pools of lava with the Boost Boots, and use your trusty baseball bat to smash the MegaMechs energy cores.
