M.E.A.T. II Absolute Zero is a first-person shooter representing the so-called “boomer shooter” genre. The FPS, keeping with the spirit of the series, maintains a pixel art graphical style referring to retro games. At the same time the game is enriched with additional solutions, thanks to which you can also feel a breath of gaming freshness. The whole game is permeated with an awe-inspiring, even brutal atmosphere - dark locations, enemies taken straight out of nightmarish visions, and finally - heavy music. All this completes the final effect, which will certainly not leave you indifferent. The same goes for the plot - following the first part of the M.E.A.T. series.
The game presents the further fate of Sir Duncan H. Culligan, who, despite the tragedies he encountered on his way, does not give up. The death of his wife, the epidemic that gradually turned into a terrifying festival of grotesque citizen-murdering creatures, the closure of mining shafts and the further loss of loved ones. It would seem to be too much for one man. Nothing could be further from the truth. After all, the Cannon of Light has not yet dealt with all the evil consuming this 19th century Canadian town. This time, the dark sect MBSXII poses as the main antagonist, using the Rock Resin to prepare an even greater disaster. What’s important however - a disaster threatening further than the known world reaches... Culligan, however, does not give in to any adversity and takes matters - or rather, guns - into his own hands. The wrath of Washagami chief protector will have to undergo another test, and the telestarion-powered weaponry will become his messenger. For the time of revenge has come. Revenge that takes no prisoners. A revenge painted with blood.
Familiar opponents, but also meny new faces. Fearsome creatures of deformed bodies will try to end Sir Culligan's life in many twisted ways. There is, however, a sizable supply of anger and telestarion in his possession, making it possible to confront the enemy. To not just find the enemy, but exact his revenge by cutting, perforating and tearing out the guts of everything the sect has hidden in its headquarters corridors. That is what your task shall be!
The game refers to the classic installments of its genre, so there will be no shortage of secret levels, hidden boss battles and a whole lot of easter eggs for fans of both pop culture and the M.E.A.T. world.
Your progress will be saved automatically and manually so that you won't lose any of the racked up kills or the ammo-stuffed gun you've just collected. You won't have to worry that a secret item found with difficulty will disappear from your arsenal. Instead of being distracted by it you’ll be instead able to fully focus on your murderous crusade.
The entire story will be presented in narrated cutscenes, which will add a layer of cinematics to the action-packed shooter. This will not only allow you to get to know the whole story in a more accessible way, but will also finally answer the nagging question: what does the M.E.A.T. abbreviation stand for?
The premiere, basic version of Absolute Zero, in addition to the story mode, will also offer multiplayer gameplay. The multiplayer mode will include the Deathmatch, Team Deathmatch, co-op Tower Defense and Capture the Flag, which are the most popular variants among FPS fans. All of this in various arenas referring to the locations we've come to know so far in the M.E.A.T. game universe.
M.E.A.T. II Absolute Zero offers a free demo that will shed some light on the upcoming full release. While it provides a completely separate story that remains unconnected to the plot of the full game, it offers just as many blown-up enemies, juicy bullet holes and energetic voiceover, with the shouts of rappers Słoń and Skits of Dutch group DOPE D.O.D. cheering you on.
