UniqKiller is an upcoming shooter with a big focus on customisation from Brazilian developer HypeJoe Games

UniqKiller: A Customizable Top-Down Shooter Coming to Mobile and PC

Making its debut at Gamescom Latam, UniqKiller is a top-down shooter from Sao Paulo-based HypeJoe Games, aiming to stand out in a crowded market. The game boasts extensive customization options, a key differentiator in a genre often lacking individuality.

At Gamescom, the sizeable yellow HypeJoe booth attracted significant attention, with demos consistently drawing crowds. The game's unique isometric perspective, while a departure from the norm, is likely secondary to its core selling point: deep player customization.

HypeJoe emphasizes the desire for personalized gaming experiences in 2024, allowing players to create unique characters, or "Uniqs," with extensive visual options. Customization extends beyond aesthetics; players unlock and modify skills and combat styles to match their play preferences, adding strategic depth.

The multiplayer aspect includes clans, clan wars, special events, and missions. HypeJoe's commitment to fair matchmaking ensures competitive balance for players of all skill levels.

UniqKiller is slated for mobile and PC release, with a closed beta scheduled for November 2024. Keep an eye on Pocket Gamer for updates and an upcoming interview with HypeJoe Games for more insights.
