Broforce is an action platformer for PC about 80’s & 90’s action heroes making up the Broforce team, an under-funded vigilante paramilitary organization. The game features ridiculous violence, pixel art graphics and a fully destructible Vietnam setting. Broforce is best played co-operatively, two to four players (though single player is an option). It can be played both on keyboard and on XBox controllers.

I caught up with the guys at Free Lives Games:

What was your inspiration behind Broforce?

Not only 80s and 90s action movies but games we played growing up like Contra, Metal Slug, and the work of Derek Yu (Spelunky) and Vlambeer (Infinite Swat, Super Crate Box). We'd appreciate any feedback we can get. We are trying to cram in as much awesome as we physically can into this game.

With preorders funding the completion of Broforce do you have an anticipated release date?

Launching Steam early access March, with full release to follow in a few months (hopefully) thereafter.
