Wired Productions (@WiredP) and Angry Demon Studio (@AngryDemonGames) have unveiled the origin story and the main characters of Gori: Cuddly Carnage (@GoriCarnage), the upcoming brutal hack 'n' slasher. Revealed through the eyes and mouth of a synthetic hoverboard (and Gori’s best friend, F.R.A.N.K!), players are introduced to the back story and the complete lineup of reluctant heroes, tasked with saving the galaxy.

Gori: Cuddly Carnage ticks a lot of boxes. Play as a badass murder-kitty on a death-dealing hoverboard in Gori: Cuddly Carnage, a third-person ‘skate ‘n’ slash’ set in a neon-glowing futuristic world filled with intense destruction and fast-paced combat. Think Tony Hawk’s meets Stray, with a bit of Dead Rising thrown in and you’re somewhere close.

Story Revealed

Humanity has been destroyed - and it's up to Gori, along with his deadly but wise-cracking sentient hoverboard, F.R.A.N.K, and morose A.I companion, CH1-P, to slay the evil Adorable Army with lethal combos.

Fuelled by insatiable demand, 'Cool-Toys Inc.' created 'Ultra Pets'. The ultimate companions that never hunger, never require bathroom breaks, and are impervious to the ravages of time. Little did anyone expect the mutation that transformed these perfect pets into twisted toys straight from your nightmares, hell-bent on wiping out humanity.

Master explosive weaponry and devastating combos in an epic battle to prevent the Adorable Army from conquering the galaxy, and rescue Professor Y, their missing creator and only human who showed Gori and his friends love. Push your combat and platforming skills to the limits as you fight your way through twisted landscapes filled with environmental hazards, razor-sharp adult humor, and a bone-crunching, pulse-pounding soundtrack.
