The team from Tribute Games is excited to be a part of Sony's indie line-up for PlayStation 4 and have its enhanced Mercenary Kings available for PS4 this winter.

The game first appears to look like an old-fashioned run-and-gun platformer from the '90s, but it's actually updated, as it incorporates a deep weapon and item crafting system.

Players must know that every character at their HQ provides numerous crafting possibilities, more than 300 gun parts to mix and match. One can choose between forging an elemental blade that freezes your enemy or enhancing a weapon's capacity.

Moreover, you can make your mercenary invulnerable to the enemy's deadly toxic weapons, use ingredients you find to boost your mission skills or choose to sacrifice accuracy for damage. As you can see, it is quite a comprehensive customization system that will attract RPG fans.

Something that really makes developers very excited is the co-op multiplayer that will allow friends to blast alien monsters together.

The game incorporates many missions. More than 100 and endless weapon-crafting possibilities, all with a modern twist.
