CULTIC, the widely well regarded PC release has been confirmed to be releasing on consoles next month, by developer Jasozz Games. A shooter designed to be fast-paced, bloody, hectic and continually fun, wrapped up in a retro-wrapping from yesteryear, CULTIC won’t let up once you begin, and now, more players can enjoy it than ever before.
Per Atari and Jasozz Games:
Atari and Jasozz Games today announced that they are releasing the popular and well-regarded indie first-person shooter CULTIC on consoles. CULTIC will be arriving on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S and Nintendo Switch 2 on July 23.
Developed by solo creator Jason Smith and released on PC in 2022, CULTIC is inspired by 90s classic shooters including Jedi Knight Dark Forces 2 and Resident Evil 4, featuring gunplay combined with a gritty, pixelated retro aesthetic. Players can opt for fast-paced run-and-gun gameplay or a more strategic, methodical approach.
The title gained traction within the retro-shooter community for its physics, environmental interactivity, and satisfying combat, earning “Overwhelmingly Positive” reviews on Steam.
CULTIC delivers a retro-shooter vibe but with modern advancements including a 3D world and accessibility that caters to a wide variety of play-styles and skill levels.
The console release includes CULTIC: Chapter One and CULTIC: Chapter Two together in a complete edition for $19.98, with a combined 23 maps full of blood, grit, and, of course, cultists. After completing the story, test your skills in the wave-based Survival Mode.
