Why play it

Hack and slash? Check. Twin-stick-shooter? Check. 4 player coop to slay hordes of aliens & bosses with your friends? Check. Skills, upgrades, weapons, gears, talismans and more to make you stronger? Check. Wake up, bounty hunter. We have a mission for you. Time to clean up the scum of the galaxy. Welcome to Killsquad: a co-op action game that blends twin-stick shooter, hack and slash and drops in a dash of character customization & progression. Join us on a journey to five planets full to the brim with enemies for you to annihilate. Choose your hero, select your skills, weapons, gears and talismans, and unleash hell through waves of relentless enemies and fearsome bosses.

Story and worldbuilding

The future is not the clean, civilized dream they sold us in the XX century. Sure, we conquered the Solar System, and went far beyond. We looked for life beyond Earth, and boy we found it. And, was it worth it? Nah. All we found out is the rest of the universe is a dirty mess of blood and crime. Gone are the days when we dreamt of flying cars and robotic assistants: flying cars are what drug smugglers use to run away, and your robotic assistant just murdered your wife, get it? So here we are, five guys, and a job no-one wants to do. Do you have a dictator who just went crazy on Saturn VII? Here comes the KillSquad to murder him. And his family, just in case little Nicky wants to be like daddy one day. Got a rogue planet not paying your taxes? We sure can handle that. And that alien race who just conquered your home planet? Don’t worry, we’ll kick them out. But it ain’t gonna be cheap. Nor clean. There will be blood everywhere. And yes they’ll hate us. But we will get the job done. When the rest say no, we say yes. When the rest talk and negotiate, we shoot and bomb. We’re a KillSquad. Who sends us? That’s none of your business. If you hired us, consider the problem solved. If they hired us, consider yourself dead. The universe is dirty. We’re just the cleaning squad.

The years haven't been kind to Killsquad: if when originally released it wasn't already great, now its arrival on consoles is just ok. The biggest problems are due to the connection and the creation of teams, not to mention the somewhat generic proposal in general. There is fun in battles and missions, especially among friends, and with rewards that don't depend on loot boxes, but nothing that justifies a long-term investment. The suggestion is only for those who are really lovers of the genre or had already checked out the title on the PC and want to have it on the console.

If it released in 2010, Killsquad would be considered a much better game but there are simply so many better options out there now.

The game has a number of problems related to the visuals, the game mechanics and the accessibility. But Killsquad is a very addictive game when you start playing it and a horde of monsters and robots fill the screen and you need to kill them all. If you like the cooperative shooters maybe you can give it a try.

Killsquad can be passingly fun in short doses, but it has too many significant issues to be an easy recommendation for even the genre's biggest fans.

Killsquad is a great twin-stick shooter for players who are looking for a new title and want to spend time with friends in an action-packed game with lots of customization options. That said, it's important to be aware that the single-player experience isn't as fun as it could be and the progression isn't as straightforward as other games in the genre.

Whether you're playing solo or co-op, Killsquad's skill-based, challenging, and fast paced combat is a triumph. While the lacklustre mission design and unexciting loot end up letting it down a little, this one can still be a blast to jump into if you and your friends are up for a grind.

Killsquad feels like a game that's taking a long time to cook. As much as I enjoyed my time playing it, it didn't always hold my attention, lacking a certain special quality. While it's already come on leaps and bounds, I hope Killsquad continues to improve with time.

You have so many tools in your arsenal and absolute freedom to use them in Killsquad that the only thing keeping you from having a total blast is your own imagination. It is understandable that the sheer amount of possibilities could be overwhelming for newcomers but if you stick with the chaos and you will be greatly rewarded.

A very fun game that exudes personality and quality, an example that Spain is a power in the creation of video games.

Killsquad is a good attempt at merging a few ideas from other genres and coming up with an arcade-style isometric shooter with a loot grind.
