Secret Ponchos

Secret Ponchos is a competitive player-versus-player fighting game set in a Spaghetti Western world. You play as an outlaw in fast, precise shootouts where every shot must be aimed and landed through your own accuracy, spacing and timing; there is no auto-attacking or aim-locking. You can fight in teams or in one-on-one duels, using movement, teamwork and the environment to outmaneuver your opponents and claim the bounty.

Outlaws and combat

Choose from 10 outlaws, each with a distinct gameplay style, weapons and advantages for your team. You can form a gang of different outlaw classes for team battles. Combat offers a range of attacks, but every action has a cost: evading uses stamina, bullets must be reloaded manually, and a missed heavy attack leaves you open to counterfire. Reading the fight and acting under pressure are essential to staying alive.

Modes and multiplayer

Gang-versus-gang combat supports team shootouts, while traditional 1v1 standoffs offer one-on-one battles. Arcade mode is a 1v1 tournament against a roster of AI opponents. You can also add bots to online matches in Unranked mode to practise.

Use the environment

Taking cover breaks line of sight and hides you from enemies. You can use the terrain to ambush or flank opponents, or take a moment to regroup. Positioning and control of range help determine the outcome of a shootout.

Progression

As your outlaw gains notoriety and the bounty on your head rises, you can level up and unlock perks, skins and reputation classes. Seasonal leaderboards track who is the most wanted.
