Eventually you can upgrade the chainsaw to give you health and armor too, so a valid (and entertaining) strategy is to simply slide back and barrage through a crowd until there’s nothing but red smears left on the floor. Sliding accelerates you forward at a ludicrous speed and allows you to charge right through waves of enemies to give yourself space. The aforementioned chainsaw leg is your best friend. It is brilliant in its simplicity and perfect execution. Doom 2016 and Doom Eternal represent an evolution towards complex, puzzle-like combat, while Turbo Overkill refines the core gameplay of Doom and, perhaps to a greater extent, Quake, to offer the fastest, smoothest, best-controlling version of any game like it. Rather, it’s more useful to view them as branching paths in the genre. It’s easy, and necessary, to compare these two modern takes on classic shooters, but relying on New Doom to be a yardstick with which to measure Turbo Overkill risks doing a disservice to both games. The triple-A reimagining of the Doom series revitalized the entire ‘boomer shooter’ genre, and it’s thanks to the success of those games that players have such an appetite for the sort of high-octane, bloody mayhem in Turbo Overkill. We can’t talk about Turbo Overkill without first talking about Doom 2016 and Doom Eternal. Ironic, considering your own body is pulled apart and put back together with all kinds of new ways to maim and dismember all throughout Turbo Overkill. From an outsider’s perspective, I can only imagine that it all looks like frantic chaos, but when you’re in the driver’s seat, running and gunning feels as natural as moving your own body. The way you effortlessly slide across the wet pavement, chainsaw leg extended, tearing through throngs of cyberdemons, feels like flying. Turbo Overkill was one of the best games we saw at PAX West last year.There’s something about Turbo Overkill that makes it so easy to slip into a flow state and just lose yourself to the carnage. The game will make its way onto the PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S, and Nintendo Switch later this year. Turbo Overkill can be wishlisted on Steam right now. “This is easily the most excited I’ve been about a shooter since the glory years of Apogee, when we were creating global hits like Wolfenstein 3D, Max Payne, Duke Nukem, and Prey.” Do those level designs and challenges still work in a world where the player is more powerful than ever?”Īpogee and 3D Realms founder Scott Miller said this: Turbo uses my favorite parts of modern games like Titanfall and Apex Legends as a lens to examine the classics we grew up on. “Since I fell in love with the genre as a player, I’ve always wanted to contribute something to the FPS canon as a developer.
