Retro-style action-adventure Gunbrella — from Gato Roboto developer dionksoft — will be opening up on Nintendo Switch on 13th September.
Publisher Devolver Digital shared the news with a smoking new release date trailer, showcasing the grizzled gunbrella-wielding hero's skills with this unusual weapon.
The game was originally revealed in an Indie World presentation last year, and we've been waiting for it to drizzle down with some action-packed bullet brolly action. You're on a quest for revenge in a world that's struggling — a vital natural resource is draining away, placing everyone in danger. And your quest for revenge will cross over with the shady dealings of disturbing organisations and unusual creatures.
Here's a rundown of what to expect from this fantastic-looking platformer, along with some brand new screens:
GAIN MASTERY OF THE GUNBRELLA
Engage in thrilling, side-scrolling action making full use of the Gunbrella's unique maneuverability and close-quarters combat capabilities. The Gunbrella is more than just a weapon - use it to glide, swing, dash and dive around the world and discover seemingly unattainable secrets along the way.LEAVE NO STONE GUNTURNED
From a small town menaced by cult kidnappings to a junkyard fortress ruled by a ruthless trash gang, explore a diverse assortment of unusual locations and interrogate bizarre characters on your quest for answers. Keep track of findings in your trusty notebook, and remember to retrace your steps...RETRIEVE. RELOAD. REPEAT.
Salvage scrap and spare parts to trade for different munitions and upgrades for your impermeable arsenal. As your search deepens, and you conjure increasingly ghastly agents of the supernatural, you'll need all the help you can get.
Gunbrella blasts onto the Switch eShop on 13th September for $14.99. Are you ready for a storm when Gunbrella launches? Get under cover in the comments.

Yesss, this is gonna rule.
Devolver Digital is one of my favorite indie publishers. I'll probably purchase a physical copy on general principle. Although I should get around to playing Doinksoft's Gato Roboto first.
Looks like my kind of dumb. Reminds me a bit of Gunpoint. Incredible game.
not the vibe I expected from it
As much as I loved Gato Roboto and think this looks great, I just… don’t think I can justify purchasing ANOTHER GAME in 2023. My wallet is le empty with the seven other preorders I’ve made for the rest of the year.
Getting Gato Roboto for free with a preorder is a great deal. I would know because i already played Gato Roboto. It just sucks because i already played Gato Roboto.
Devolver Digital is a stamp of a guaranteed good game.
I may check out the demo or I might just jump in when it comes out (or a little after). We'll see. So much to play.
It looks like something I will love, though.
Looks great! Gato Roboto was a lot of fun. Glad they went full color this time !!!🌈!!!
Easy day one purchase for me.
Gato Roboto ruled. And while this doesn't look like anything new... There's something about it that I'm really digging. Think I'll preorder too
Looks like vintage devolver. I'm in.
Love the mechanics of this even though I'm not a fan of the graphical style. Love seeing a 2D platformer priced affordably, am I pointing the finger at Super Mario wonder? LOL
