Double Kick Heroes Death To All But Metal
Rock your week with Double Kick Heroes, coming to the Switch this month.
Some like the smell of napalm in the morning, for socialites like me, I like to kickstart with metal. I’m no alchemist, but an advocate of loud music that must contain these core ingredients: guitars, drums, bass and face-melting solos.
Double Kick Heroes may be the start to the morning I’ve been looking for as you control a mötley crew of metalheads as they steam along in their Gundillac Sheila, blasting away evil hordes in a post-apocalyptic wasteland.
So, the not-so-distant future?
We hope that you love our game as much as we do and enjoy the kick-ass soundtrack we’ve put together to celebrate all things metal. We can’t wait for people to try out air controls for Nintendo Switch which is a heap load of metallic fun, but please drum responsibly.
