Conan Chop Chop was initially revealed back in Apri 1, 2020, which made people think this is just a joke like many others. And I must say, the developer Mighty Kingdom has done a good job of keeping their mouth shut, adding even more mystery to the true existence of the game. Its delay announcement back in August even made its vaguer.

But now, we know for sure that Conan Chop Chop is a real game, and it will join the Conan universe for PC in February 2020. And since all of the teasers the publisher Funcom has released so far is real, it's time to look at the newest one again to see how these ghoul-chopping game will look like:

The concept of Conan Chop Chop

Conan Chop Chop takes the settings of the Hyborian Age - the fictional era in the history of the novel Conan the Barbarian. In this game, the wicked wizard Thoth-Amon is preparing to fulfill his evil plan - reviving the ancient horror namely Xaltotun. If he succeeds in doing so, the entire world will be ruined with eternal darkness and chains of enslavement.

No need to say, you'll have to rely on your wits (mostly guile), your inner swordsmanship and courage to spoil his evil plan. Calling all brothers and sisters to wield every weapon you find, and 'chop chop' your way to protect the world and your freedom.

Gameplay features

Its story is that simple, and there is not a lot more to encounter while playing the game. Instead, Conan Chop Chop catches people's eyes for its satisfying hack-n-slash experience and its Cyanide and Happiness visuals (If you haven't known about Cyanide yet, it's kind of an animation series where the characters do stupid things and end up with bloody disgusting but funny consequences.)

First things first, let's talk about the gameplay. Conan Chop Chop is a roguelike hack-n-slash game. You'll take control of a Hyborian stick-figure warrior, wielding the most ancient weapons ever like wooden spears or swords to head down to the killing field against monsters like ghouls, werewolves and many more.

You can explore it in every direction you want: up, down, left, right, and in any means: casually watching, dashing, jumping.

Release date

Apart from the funny trailer, the developer also brought us another announcement: Conan Chop Chop will be delayed again to February 20, 2020.

We don't know whether it's the last time or not, but the game has a Steam page now, so it cannot be a fake game anymore. Alongside PC release, it will also come out for PS4 as well.
