New action roguelike Guntouchables scores 2 million players with free giveaway

Giving your newly launched game away for free is a bold strategy, and it’s led to some dramatic results for co-op action roguelike Guntouchables. Built by Game Swing and published by Deep Rock Galactic studio Ghost Ship, it’s a vicious apocalypse survival shooter about a group of preppers trying to fight back against an evolving mutant horde. Bringing together elements of Enter the Gungeon, The Binding of Isaac, and Hades, it was available totally for free on launch day. During its 24-hour giveaway period, it racked up an incredible two million players, and the good news is that you won’t need to break the bank to join them.
