ArcRunner

ArcRunner is a cyberpunk action roguelite and third-person shooter for PlayStation 5, developed by TrickJump Games and published by PQube. When a meta-virus infects KORE, the artificial intelligence of the titan-class space station The Arc, every robot turns against the station’s inhabitants. The ArcRunner protocol revives the mind of a legendary tactical operative inside a cybernetic android body. Choose a Soldier, Ninja, or Hacker template, defeat the zone Guardians, reach KORE, and restore the station through a new run each time. Release Date: April 18, 2024.

Core Game Features:

• Cyberpunk Roguelite Action: Fight through The Arc in repeatable runs where danger, rewards, and level layouts keep changing.

• Choose Your Android Body: Select Soldier for all-around combat, Ninja for fast and lethal attacks, or Hacker for infiltration and subversion. Each template brings its own weapons and abilities.

• Collect and Upgrade Weapons: Discover weapons dropped by enemies and bosses, hidden in supply crates, or awarded for challenges. Use permanent nanite upgrades, weapon mods, and augments to strengthen your arsenal.

• Perfect Every Run: Spend nanites on meta-progression in the cryochamber, improve damage and health, add weapon-mod slots, and choose powerful Autodoc augmentations that can unlock movement abilities and extra guns.

• Randomized Cyberpunk Zones: Traverse four main zones with randomly generated levels, from the dystopian City to the elegant Eden Heights. Every run can present new routes, modes, and Challenge Crate sectors.

• Face the Zone Guardians: Battle through hostile robots and dangerous sectors while pursuing KORE, the AI at the center of the station’s collapse.

• Online Co-op: Play alone or join up to three players online to combine different android templates and take down the rogue AI together.

• Accessible PS5 Action: Enjoy adjustable difficulty, practice mode, pausing in offline play, and a stylish 3D cyberpunk presentation built for fast combat.

Story and World:

The Arc is a titan-class space station designed as a vast cyberpunk environment, but its systems fail when a meta-virus infects KORE, the station’s central artificial intelligence. The robots that once maintained The Arc immediately become hostile, and its inhabitants vanish without explanation. In response, the ArcRunner protocol downloads the mind of the greatest tactical operative into a cybernetic android body and sends it into the station. The mission is direct but dangerous: cross randomized zones, defeat each Guardian, gather the weapons and nanites needed to survive, find KORE, and reset the AI before The Arc is lost forever.
