Amazon Games and Glowmade have officially announced King of Meat, an online co-op hack-and-slash game for one to four players. In this wild spectacle, players step into the shoes of fearless contenders battling through absurd, chaotic dungeons.
“At Amazon Games, we’re expanding our portfolio to offer a variety of high-quality experiences for our players,” said Christoph Hartmann, Vice President of Amazon Games.
Set in the mystical world of Loregok, King of Meat combines high fantasy with the glitz and glamor of modern-day celebrity culture. Players are thrust into the “King of Meat” game show, competing for glory, gold, and fame in the Komstruct Koliseum. As contestants, you’ll face chaotic dungeons filled with a mix of traditional fantasy creatures like dragons and trolls, along with bizarre obstacles like exploding ducks, spinning blades, and sausage-meat gym jocks. To win, you’ll need not only combat skills but also the ability to entertain a bloodthirsty audience.
But the fun doesn’t stop there. Players can create their own devious dungeons, using creativity and cunning to craft challenges for others. The best player-created dungeons will gain fame and recognition throughout Loregok.
The game’s announcement was highlighted by a new trailer that premiered during Gamescom Opening Night Live.
“At Amazon Games, we’re excited to unveil King of Meat, a unique and imaginative new IP developed by Glowmade. This game marks a significant step forward for us as we continue to diversify our offerings,” Hartmann added. “Glowmade has created a vibrant world that offers a fun and engaging experience. We’re eager to see how players express themselves through co-op gameplay and dungeon creation, and we look forward to King of Meat captivating players globally at launch and beyond.”
King of Meat will be available digitally on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, Steam, and Nintendo Switch. Developed by Glowmade, an independent studio based in Guildford, England, and published by Amazon Games, the game offers a rich blend of inclusivity, creativity, and community.
Jonny Hopper, Glowmade’s co-founder and Studio Head, said, “At Glowmade, we embrace joyful creativity. King of Meat captures this ethos perfectly, offering players a variety of weird and wonderful ways to have fun and express themselves. Whether building crazy dungeons, dressing up in outlandish costumes, or teaming up with friends to conquer dungeons, King of Meat has something for everyone. We’ve had a blast making this game, and I can’t wait for the world to experience it soon. I’m especially excited to see our community bring King of Meat to life with their creativity.”
