Spanish studio Crema announced today that their roguelite first person shooter Immortal Redneck will get a PC release on April 25th, with PlayStation 4 and Xbox One releases to follow later this year. Gamers will take control of a redneck who experiences a serious accident while vacationing in Egypt, gets knocked out and wakes up as a mummified immortal in Ancient Egypt. In order to ascertain the reasons for this experience, players will have to fight their way through three pyramids filled to the brim with monsters and bosses hell bent on the redneck’s obliteration.

Randomly generated scenarios and changing enemy rosters will ensure that we never experience the same layout on each playthrough, and if that wasn’t enough, the game features nine different playable classes with their own specific traits and characteristics, plus customizable skill trees that can be used to upgrade the player’s character and over 50 weapons that can be wielded to prevent an early death (which, by the way, would be permanent).

Immortal Redneck gained traction after its Steam Greenlight campaign was featured on Jim Sterling’s “Greenlight good stuff” video series, which aims to highlight the unknown gems that can be found on Valve’s soon to be replaced user managed store approval system.
