Tribute Games, the studio behind the action-platformer Mercenary Kings, has announced that Panzer Paladin is coming to PC and Nintendo Switch this summer.
Panzer Paladin was announced in March 2019. It's an action-platformer with intuitive fencing mechanics. Of the 16 levels, the player himself chooses in what order to go through the first 10, the remaining 6 will be sequential. The protagonist pilots a power armor called "Paladin" to fight giant demons. Weapons thrown by defeated enemies can be picked up and used by the character.
In addition, battles are built on a rock-paper-scissors system that gives bonuses to attack. The Paladin is the primary means of fighting demons, but players can get out of it and play the Panzer Paladin as a faster and more agile pilot called the Armiger. The squire uses a laser whip to attack enemies, jump over obstacles, and charge power armor.
According to the plot, giant weapons (swords, spears), rising from the dark depths of space, pierced the sky and historical places around the world. Like a declaration of war on humanity, the Parthenon at the top of the Acropolis of Athens was the first to be pierced through. On impact, each weapon opened a breach in the fabric of reality and unleashed legions of demons.
The International Security Council organized Gauntlet, a scientific committee for the development of state-of-the-art defense technologies. His staff discovered that demons can only be defeated with their own weapons, but humans cannot use them. But the car can. Thus was created the android Squire, who took control of the last remaining "Paladin". And only he is able to defeat the demons and their leader, Ravenus.
