"Contra: Rogue Corps" Announced By Nintendo and Konami at E3 2019

Today we got an action-packed trailer from Konami and Nintendo as Contra Rogue Corps was announced during the Nintendo Direct feed for E3. While the trailer says a lot about the story, now know the game will be a twin stick, third-person action game drawing upon its roots in fast and focused combat. It will be released for the Xbox One, PlayStation 4, Nintendo Switch, and PC on September 24th, 2019. Enjoy the video and brief descriptor below as the trailer melts your face off.

Several years after the events of the Alien Wars, Contra: Rogue Corps follows a former military group living on the fringes as bounty hunters and treasure finders in the Damned City. Survival requires fast reactions, powerful weapons and the occasional organ and cybernetic augmentation. Players will complete missions in PVE campaigns, gathering resources to upgrade their guns to stay alive in the Damned City. If all else fails… bring in a friend online and mow-down enemies together in online multiplayer mode!

Key Game Features:

• Action shooter with fast-paced, run & gun style gameplay

o   Ms Harakiri – Famed assassin specialising in stealth and infiltration, after barely escaping death during the Alien Wars, she fused together with an alien, now taking residence in her midsection.

o   Hungry Beast – Once the noted (human) scientist Kurt Steiner, he had his brain inserted into a giant cyborg panda and now spends most of his time looking for delicious snacks.
