Squanch Games’ High On Knife DLC is available today, giving High On Life fans an all-new adventure filled with laughs, scares, and a completely fictional story about how the convenience of same-day shipping inevitably normalizes corporate surveillance, reducing entire segments of a sentient population to box-flinging commodities – all for the sake of convenience. Plus, two all-new talking guns!
High On Knife is essentially a big new bonus episode set after the events of High On Life’s campaign. Your bounty-hunting hero comes home from adventuring, only to find a missed-package slip for a delivery meant for your knife companion, Knifey. Knifey convinces you to head to his home planet to pick up this mysterious package, and then a bunch of stuff happens. Funny stuff. And spooky stuff!
High On Knife features (amazing!) all-new performances from a variety of well-known actors and comedians, including:
-
Gabourey Sidibe (American Horror Story, Precious) as Mux, the sinister (and foul-mouthed) head of intergalactic shipping titan Muxxalon
-
Sarah Sherman (Saturday Night Live) as Harper, a chatty ex-military pistol with a dark origin story
-
Alec Robbins (Squanch’s head writer) as BALL, a new pinball-inspired gun operated cooperatively by a trio of gibberish-spewing little guys
-
Ken Marino (Party Down, The State) as an alien parasite that is going to be a part of your bounty hunter’s mission. Look, it’s going to attach itself to you, OK?
-
Michael Cusack (Smiling Friends, High On Life), reprising his role as Knifey

High On Life follows the misadventures of an unmotivated high-school graduate who becomes Earth’s last hope following an alien invasion. These interstellar invaders are on a constant search for their next intoxicating experience, and, unfortunately, they discover that humans provide an exquisite high. The only solution is to become a bounty hunter, tracking down the kingpins in the alien cartel to stop their horrifying harvest. It makes sense in context, OK?!
