While the idea of a free to play fighting game isn't a new one, Coreupt is heading into a fairly undersaturated market.
An indie production billed as 'next-gen', Coreupt wears its Mortal Kombat inspiration on its sleeve. While the developers have already shared brief gameplay footage, a proper trailer will drop soon, prefaced by some character reveals.
Running on Unreal Engine 4, fancy graphics with flashy particle effects are plentiful in Coreupt, with every character sporting reflective, metallic armor with glowy bits. Building up hype for the upcoming trailer, creator Jesse Wright has been sharing some character art.
While the game website and gameplay footage have already spoiled a larger cast, three characters have gotten their own reveals - Gatling, Beretta and Winry.
Winry is a pistol wielding fighter, Gatling is some sort of cybernetic swordsman and Beretta is, uhh... she's got horns? The developers aren't upfront about any details regarding these characters aside of profile images. Unfortunately it seems like the design team took a rather outdated and reductive approach to female characters.
