Embark on a brutal path of blood soaked revenge as Shank battles his way through the criminal underground in his quest for retribution. The 2D sidescroller beat-em-up is finally on Steamplay, now with improved controls and tuning updates based on popular feedback! Shank will have you shooting and slashing your way through hordes of enemies in a stylized slaughter fest. Play as Shank in an over-the-top grindhouse game, packed to the rim with enemies, bosses, combos, and more by the award-winning team at Klei Entertainment. There's also a great selection of end-stage bosses to defeat, which will surely challenge your killing skills.Shank is the cult-classic revival of the sidescrolling beat-em-up. Shank is also pretty agile, with the ability to pounce on enemies from afar and chuck them with a weighty throw. It's super easy to knock enemies in the air and juggle them, or go on the offensive and rack up big combos. Shank can use his default knives, his chainsaw (more melee weapons can be unlocked), and his firearms to defeat foes, with each weapon mapped to a dedicated button. As you progress through the game's 20 side-scrolling levels, you'll encounter a wide range of enemies to dispatch with your growing arsenal. Whether you're playing cooperatively with two players or going at it alone solo, Shank lets you rip into bad guys with tons of style. Shank is all about high-octane, bloody combat, best exemplified by the game's frenetic combo options. Shank's journey takes him to a variety of slummy, back-alley locations, including the previously trodden strip club, a meat factory, and even a church. Through a series of flashbacks, we learn the grisly history of Shank's prior life, including the role he played in Eva's demise. After digging up some information, Shank hunts down various members of the gang responsible for Eva's kidnapping and subsequent murder. In the solo adventure, Shank shows up at a local bar thirsty for blood, after his beloved girlfriend Eva has been killed. As they continue executing orders for their boss, Shank and Falcone work up a fateful event that kicks off the solo campaign. The pair of gangsters start off their killing spree at a nearby strip club, exchanging punches with a local group of bikers. In the prequel story, Shank and his partner-in-crime Falcone run amok as two hitmen working for the mob. The two-player story is a prequel to the single-player campaign, so those who have a gaming buddy should check the cooperative content out first. There are two major stories in Shank, one in the solo campaign and the other in the cooperative campaign.
