To The Death

To The Death is a top-down shooter set in 3D physics-driven arenas. You fight friends in split-screen duels or take on robot enemies alone or in split-screen co-op, with up to four players.

Game modes

• Last man standing: challenge friends to a split-screen gunfight; the last player alive wins.
• Robot combat: fight robot AI enemies in single player or split-screen co-op for up to four players.

Combat and arenas

You can carry two weapons at a time, choosing how to combine them from 28 weapon modes, each with different tactical mechanics. In the room-to-room arena challenge, you destroy robot spawners while facing varied enemy types, each with its own weapons and tactics. The game has five difficulty settings, adapts difficulty to the number of players, and includes varied boss battles.

There are 25 arenas, many with randomized features and layouts that create hundreds of variations. The 3D environments add verticality, so you can jump or fall. Interactive elements include hoverboards, cannons, player flashlights, bounce pads, pushable spiked walls, elevators, exploding barrels, and destructible walls and floors.

Staying in the fight

A cheering crowd randomly throws weapons, health kits and ammo into the arena; moving along the arena edges prompts these drops. In both modes, dead players respawn as turrets and can continue taking part. In co-op, a surviving player who unlocks the next arena room fully revives dead teammates.

Co-op players can touch to pool and share their combined health. They can also cross their laser sights to trigger explosion damage against enemies.

Style and sound

The retro visual style prioritizes gameplay clarity over visual clutter. The game features strong sound effects and over two hours of original music, combining rock, metal, industrial, electronica, drum and bass, and dark ambience.
