04.10.2023 - 17:37 / gamepur.com
Wizard With a Gun is an upcoming Co-Op Sandbox Survival Shooter set in the wild world comprised of arcane firearms, time travel hijinks, eldritch horrors, and a whole lot of chaos.It’s a game published by Devolver Digital and Galvanic Games (best known for other games like Some Distant Memory and Gurgamoth) that many indie game fanatics have been eagerly awaiting.
And, thankfully, we’ve got some more Wizard with a Gun news to share. On October 2, 2023, Devolver Digital dropped a new WWaG trailer on their official YouTube channel that gave us a bit of a deeper look at the game as a whole. Not only did this renew the excitement of many people and remind them the game is set to release in just a few short weeks, but it also answered many questions players have had for the game since it was first announced.
A Quick Overview of Wizard With A Gun
For those seeing this game for the first time, Wizard with a Gun has been described as a multiplayer survival procedurally-generated sandbox set in a world long after the apocalypse that the characters are desperately trying to fix. In this game, players take control of a ‘Gunslinger’ that’s been given the task of fixing a world broken by Chaos using their Wizard/Witch-like arcane firearms, the Tower they’ve been given access to that they can use to ‘rewind’ time, and a whole lot of other random resources.
Not that every game needs to be described using other games, but the most common comparison people seem to be using for Wizard with a Gun is its Don’t Starve meets Bastion or even Don’t Starve meets Enter the Gungeon. In this game, you’ll be collecting resources, crafting new guns, researching new types of ammunition, and slowly uncovering the mystery of what happened to this fractured world (either on your own or with a friend).

Gunmancer’s Diary Trailer – All The New Info It Showed
The game had one last beta before its release from September 29, 2023, to October 2, 2023, and in this demo/beta, fans got an even more in-depth look at the gameplay loop of Wizard with a Gun as well as the overall core mechanics.
However, the most recent “Gunmancer’s Dirary” posted on the official DevolverDigital YouTube channel shows off even more of the game. In this brief minute-and-a-half trailer, we see a slew of new NPCs, such as an adorable little Cthulhu-esque Gunsmith, Old Joshua, and a Potion-Maker named Grandma Bogfen. Not only that, but we also get a sneak peek at a few different biomes that weren’t available to explore in either of the demos/betas for the game. These new biomes include The Arcane Fungal Farmland, AKA The Fell, The Frozen Wastes, and The Barren Sea, otherwise known as the Magehunter’s

This new survival roguelike has everything I want: wizards, guns, co-op, killer art, and one of the best titles of the year
Wizard With a Gun gets automatic bonus points for having an amazing title, but the game is pretty darn cool too. It's a new survival roguelike from developer Galvanic Games, published by Devolver, and as a co-op action game with magic, guns, and beautifully drawn landscapes, it's perked my ears right up.

Lamplighter devs Harebrained "part ways" with Paradox as publisher decides against new project in the same genre
Shadowrun and Battletech studio Harebrained Schemes have "parted ways" with Paradox Interactive - or what's left of the company have, at least. Paradox have announced that they're cutting Harebrained loose to pursue publishing opportunities elsewhere following dismal sales of the studio's latest release, swaggering 1930s-set Indiana XCOMalike The Lamplighters League. Paradox will keep ownership of The Lamplighters League and other games developed by Harebrained, though the Crusader Kings publisher have no plans for a project or sequel in the same genre.

Wizard with a Gun Review
With a ridiculous on-the-nose title like Wizard with a Gun, you know exactly what you’re getting into. You’re a wizard, and you have a gun. But the gun is also your wand, so even though you’re shooting all manner of creatures, it’s magical shooting. This silly premise has a lot going for it, opening the door for plenty of unique combat scenarios in its sandbox world. But despite a great opening, Wizard with a Gun starts losing momentum once it becomes clear that it just doesn’t feel finished. Pulling off spell combos and crafting new bullets can be a lot of fun with a friend in co-op, and there is a good amount to explore for fans of survival sandboxes, but balance issues and the lack of a proper ending leave it feeling like it’s missing an Early Access label. As my friends and I kept saying, “it’s got good bones,” but the robes on top of them don’t take long to wear thin.
