THE LAST KIDS ON EARTH AND THE STAFF OF DOOM Gets a Release Date
Outright Games has announced that The Last Kids on Earth and The Staff of Doom will launch on Nintendo Switch, PC (via Steam), PS4, and Xbox One on June 4. Based on the hit animated series on Netflix and the book series from Max Brallier, The Staff of Doom offers a new story for players to enjoy in Wakefield as they battle back hordes of zombies. You and up to three of your friends can even play together via couch co-op to bring Malondre down.
In The Last Kids on Earth and the Staff of Doom, fans can immerse themselves in an all new story, exploring the massive town of Wakefield and taking on hordes of zombies. Play as the series' legendary heroes Jack, Quint, June and Dirk, as they search for the missing pieces of the ultra-powerful 'Staff of Doom' and try to overcome Malondre, the Queen of the Slime Monsters, as she seeks to summon Rezzoch, the Ancient Destructor of Worlds. At launch, players will be able to jump into 1-4 player offline couch co-op mode, which will soon be followed by a patch that will add online multiplayer functionality.
In a statement, Brallier said:
We started with books, then went interactive on Netflix, and now fans of the Last Kids on Earth have the power in their hands to fully control the fates of Jack, Quint, June and Dirk as they take on the greatest foes ever faced in their battle to save the world. The world of The Last Kids on Earth just keeps on growing, and I can't wait to see how readers, viewers and gamers around the world respond to the next exciting chapter in the journey of these beloved characters.
The Staff of Doom is being developed by Stage Clear Studios in conjunction with Atomic Cartoons and Outright Games. Are you excited to play this brand-new story in the world of The Last Kids on Earth? Who do you plan to main?
