I love maddening coop games; they've been the bread and butter of my friend's group these last few years. Some of our favorites have included strategy gems like For the King 2, but also more chaotic gems like Helldivers 2. This looks to fit the bill, too!
I'm already intrigued by the potential of Cuffbust. Will the game adapt to the number of players, or will an entire team of 20 create an unstoppable force of Gremlins? I'm also eager to start personalizing my character with unique skins. I can't wait to see what the game has to offer.
Battle pass?! Just kidding, that would be an absolutely horrible idea, but I do hope there's a plethora of reasons to continue playing. I'd hate for it to be a one-and-done experience that's fun for a couple of hours, only to fall off once you've seen everything. Cuffbust looks like it could be a major hit that could even top Steam charts if timed well against other releases coming this Fall.
Speaking of, Cuffbust will launch exclusively on Steam sometime in 2025. Well, maybe it will! We'll see, as even the developer jokes about the release date at the end of the trailer. Go get your Wishlist today!
