Developer Samurai Punk will soon be launching the sequel to their action comedy sandbox game Roombo: First Blood. Titled Justice Sucks: Recharged, this sequel is set to launch for consoles and PC via Steam in late 2020.
Roombo: First Blood, which released a year ago, is a top-down, stealth and action title that puts players in the role of a vacuum robot. Obviously a play on the automated vacuum cleaning device and the Sylvester Stallone action move, players must guide this humble robot vacuum cleaner to fend off burglars from your home Home Alone-style by using many traps, hacking smart-home gadgets such as lights and doors, hiding under furniture, and creating improvised weapons. The only catch is that once you are successful in fending off the thieves, you must return back to your normal programming and make sure that the house is clean once the family arrives. This is made more difficult because your weapons and traps always result in a bloody mess.
In Justice Sucks: Recharged, players will be dropped back into the events after Roombo: First Blood. This time, your family has been brutally attacked by the FamilyCorp Elimination Squad, and in the process of battling them, you have been thrown inside the living room TV. On the brink of "robodeath", your consciousness enters the TV dimension. This is where you gain the abilities you need to rise and avenge your family once again.
Justice Sucks: Recharged looks to still retain its comedic charm with the over-the-top gore that it had with Roombo: First Blood. The main difference is that now, Justice Sucks will have a lot more content such as new powers and abilities, different worlds to traverse and discover, environments filled with puzzles to solve, and tons of other characters such as the SeaBoyz, a group of mischievous pop-band pirates.
Justice Sucks: Recharged will launch for consoles and PC via Steam in late 2020. Samurai Punk has also confirmed that we will get our first peek at the game at PAX Online 2020, which will be held from September 12 to September 20.
