It’s been an age since we last wrote an update on PS.Blog. Back then we talked about how the game we’d announced as a fake April fools’ joke in April 2019 was months from release. Well, the joke was actually on us and it’s been almost three years since. It started with an idea that would be a fun and ridiculous take on the Conan universe but then we couldn’t stop thinking of all the additions that could make the game even better. So the scope grew until we were happy enough but that time has now come and we are releasing Conan Chop Chop into the world on March 1. If you don’t believe us, I can’t blame you. But you can ask the journalists who received review copies for it!
We’ll take you through the new inclusions to wet your barbarian (or adventurer, or pirate) appetites in a moment. But first, a refresher for those new to our game:
Chop Chop isn’t just the title, it’s an instruction. Hack your way through the different areas in Hyboria along with friends. Every area is filled with tougher foes than the last so equip the best combination of weapons, armor, and charms to take down anything in your way. When you inevitably fall, re-arm yourself, level up your character and get back out there. What kills you in Chop Chop also makes you stronger.
Slaying a ton of monsters is fun, but it’s always better when you’ve got your company. Play couch co-op or team up with friends across Hyboria to take on this mighty challenge. Plus, teaming up with friends greatly increases your survivability. They can be just the “pick-me-up” you need when you fall in the heat of battle. Just remember not to curse them too much when Bêlit takes your kill with a timely arrow.
Don’t worry if it all seems too daunting. Swinging a sword is dead easy
