There have been many co-op games that require players to work together, but it’s not often that they’re asked to sacrifice and resurrect one another. That’s exactly what happens in pixel art platformer REZ PLZ, a game where apprentice wizard brothers Arcan and Zeph are killed in a myriad of different ways only to be restored by one another using the Resurrection Scroll. Give the trailer a look:
Here’s what developers Graffiti Games and Long Neck Games say to look forward to in REZ PLZ:
- Co-op Play – REZ PLZ puts a unique spin on the traditional co-op concept. Instead of trying to keep each player alive through each level, players must strategically kill one of the brothers to solve puzzles and defeat enemies. Use the Resurrection Scroll to bring Arcan and Zeph back to life.
- Death Around Every Corner – Death is everywhere in REZ PLZ, and can come from a multitude of one-hit deaths, ranging from being sliced in half, eaten by creatures, burned alive and more. Death is part of the adventure!
- Unlock Magical Spells – Unlock new spells to conquer the increasingly difficult challenges ahead, but be careful because these brothers are poor at magic and one bad spell can mean death!
- Unlockables – Explore and find a bevy of unlockable cosmetic items and unlockable challenging gauntlet levels to customize your gameplay.
REZ PLZ launches on July 15 in the Switch eShop. Will you be giving it a spin? Tell us in the comments and on social media!
