Introducing new characters - RPG and Dragunov
Coreupt first popped up on the radar roughly 7 years ago, when the creator of Mario is Unreal, aryoksini, showed off the prototype of the game on Unreal Engine 4.
Back then, it looked more like an outright action game, something among the lines of Mad World or God Hand. However, it didn't take long until the game showed up again as a proper fighter with a sci-fi aesthetic and a distinct focus towards the visual fidelity.
Development is often a long and tumultuous process, even for a massive studio with hundreds or even thousands of developers. Needless to say, it tends to be even harder for ambitious needless developers.
However, in the last few years it seems like Coreupt updates have gotten more and more frequent, leading up to their most recent video from just a day ago, showing off new characters, called RPG and Dragunov.
It's hard to pinpoint what kind of gameplay it's going for, but it's hard to ignore the likely influence of Tekken and Mortal Kombat when looking at the combos and how juggling functions.
Coreupt is set to release in 2024 according to their Steam page, so we'll keep an eye on its development.
