Prepare for an adrenaline-pumping adventure as Retroware and Zenovia Interactive team up to bring you Neon Inferno, a pixel-perfect cyberpunk shooter set to launch on all platforms in Q3 2025. Inspired by classics like Contra and Wild Guns, Neon Inferno promises to deliver a dynamic blend of side-scrolling and gallery-shooting action in a dystopian New York City of 2055.
In Neon Inferno, players can choose to step into the shoes of either Angelo or Mariana, two members of a fledgling crime family fighting for power against a corrupt NYPD and rival syndicates. The game’s unique “Bullet Time” feature allows players to deflect projectiles back at enemies, regardless of whether they’re in the foreground or background, adding a strategic layer to the intense combat.
With multiple upgrades available between missions, various difficulty levels including an Arcade Mode, and a two-player co-op option, Neon Inferno offers a customizable and challenging experience. The game’s stunning 32-bit pixel art and evocative soundtrack bring the sci-fi cityscape to life, making every battle a visual and auditory treat.
Whether you’re tackling missions solo or with a friend, Neon Inferno’s blend of fast-paced action and strategic gameplay is sure to keep you on the edge of your seat. Keep an eye out for its release later this year and get ready to dive into the neon-lit chaos of 2055.
