Gambitious Digital Entertainment announced today that Sobaka Studio‘s upcoming bone crunching brawler Redeemer will be released on August 1st for PC (Steam and GOG). The brutal top down title will cost US$ 14.99, and it will let us play as Vasily, a monk with a violent past seeking redemption through action.

Aside from a fully featured single player campaign, we’ll also be able to test our might against endless hordes of bloodthirsty enemies in a separate Arena Mode. As expected from a good brawler, Redeemer will not force us to take on the enemy masses unarmed, letting us take advantage of a number of melee weapons, firearms and explosives as we deal with all sorts of pesky meatbags.

REDEEMER is a brawler where you will punch, hack and blast your way through enemies using fists, hammers, fire arms and even the environment.

Play as Vasily, an elite operative who once worked for one of the biggest Cybernetic Weapons Manufacturers in the world. Officially working in security, you were tasked with infiltration, assassination, extortion and even torture. When eventually the corporation decided to turn you into one of its cyborg soldiers, you manage to narrowly escape to a secluded monastery deep in the snowy mountains.

For 20 years you tried to find peace and harmony amongst your fellow monks, but you are still too haunted by your murderous past to find either. Now after all of these years the corporation is finally closing-in on your location, and in so doing they have given you one last shot at redemption.
