    Milanoir: Pixel-packed 70s crime film action game coming soon to PC, PlayStation 4, Xbox One and Nintendo Switch™

    – New gameplay trailer evokes a stylish, cinematic era of intrigue and lawlessness –
     

    Good Shepherd Entertainment and independent developer Italo Games have announced that Milanoir, an original pixel-packed action game inspired by the masterpiece Italian crime movies of the 1970s, is expected to launch on Nintendo Switch™ in early 2018.

    A new gameplay trailer released today teases Milanoir’s story of greed, betrayal and revenge, influenced by classic Italian films like Caliber 9 and Almost Human.

     

    Milanoir’s pixel art aesthetic paints the unforgiving city of Milan in bright and bloody detail while a funky ‘70s-style soundtrack further captures the turbulent energy of the era. Sneak, choke and shoot through the violent criminal underworld on the hunt for the man who framed you, surviving breathtaking vehicle chases and taking out anyone who stands in your way.

    The game has been designed with the unique capabilities of the Nintendo Switch™ in mind, and allows two players to complete its entire action-packed campaign in Co-Op mode on one console with each player using one Joy‑Con™ controller.

    About Italo Games

    Italo Games was born from the chance meeting of a developer and a designer who were working at the same mobile game company in Milan. They soon realized that they shared a common vision on the game they wanted to make. Hence they decided to put everything else aside: they found an Italian investor, hired a great freelance pixel artist from Bari and started working tirelessly to make the Milanoir dream come true. Italo Games is a young team which aims to make games with a strong focus on aesthetics and narratives.
