Indie developer Evil Raptor has teamed up with PLAION to reveal a first teaser trailer for the upcoming action-adventure shooter Akimbot, which has already received positive response among audiences for its likeness to Ratchet and Clank.
Offering a colorful journey with two partnered heroes and gameplay akin to the beloved action-adventure video games synonymous with the PlayStation 2, this upcoming release is one fans of Ratchet and Clank and Jak and Daxter may want to take a closer look at.
Audiences have long-adored 3D action-adventure games, with recent releases like Crash Bandicoot 4: It's About Time and Ratchet and Clank: Rift Apart proving particularly successful both critically and commercially.
Titles like God of War Ragnarok and Red Dead Redemption 2 have ranked among some of the best action-adventure games of all time, though some fans have lamented their more mature themes.
Seeking to satisfy a more lighthearted nostalgic itch for adventure, Akimbot is already striking a positive chord with fans of old-school 3D platformers.
