Double Stallion is thrilled to announce that Surfpunk will launch its public demo tomorrow, Tuesday December 16 at 3:00 PM EST on Steam. The demo will be the first opportunity for players to experience the island-hopping, loot-scavenging, and high-speed “surf ‘n slash” since it was announced. The Montreal-based developer will also be hosting a live Q&A stream on their Discord as they play through the demo on December 17th at 1:00 pm EST when they will invite the community to ask questions about the game.
In this co-op focused ARPG, players experience fast-paced PVE action where teamwork, creativity and thrill-seeking are key to success. They play as Raiders, a band of free-spirited surfer-pirates who navigate the tropical, post-cataclysmic setting of The Fallen World, scavenging islands for lost treasures while battling the monstrous Sumi swarms.
Dive into the Surfpunk’s dazzling but deadly world and get a taste of life as a Raider before the full game comes to early access next year. In this demo, players can hop between islands in 1-4 player online co-op, tackle four unique weapon classes, and test their skills across four mission difficulty tiers and experience the first weather modifier:Storm. The demo will include 1 game mode as well as NPC quests, character customization and a taste of unlockable skills for each weapon. Not to mention players will be able to pet Bingus, the loveable seadog.
In all, the demo contains roughly 5 hours of content and up to 10 hours for those who wish to explore all difficulty levels and unlockables to surf, scavenge, and strategize through.
