4J Studios is revved up and ready to go for the release of its first proprietary title, Manic Mechanics, on PC (via Steam), PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One and Xbox Series X|S on March 7, 2024. With 30-plus levels to be experienced across Octane Isle’s six neighbourhoods, this won’t be an easy ride. So, grab your toolbelt, round up your friends and see if you have what it takes to become a Manic Mechanic.
4J Studios is almost frightened to announce the launch of Manic Mechanics – Banshee Bay, the first DLC pack for Manic Mechanics, which is available from today (October 12 2023) for Nintendo Switch™. Banshee Bay is a creepy outcrop of Octane Isle, where Dr. Lupita Vavroom – resident mad scientist and Manic Mechanic – has discovered a way to bring classic cars back from the spooky scrapheap. Manic Mechanics – Banshee Bay features the same chaotic couch co-op action as Manic Mechanics™, but with a host of terrifying twists. Now that night is falling on Octane Isle, do you have what it takes to resurrect the ghostly racers from the great beyond? Head on down to Banshee Bay and find out… if you dare!
4J Studios is excited to throw the covers off Manic Mechanics, an accelerated, mechanically-minded addition to the chaotic couch co-op canon. Crashing onto Nintendo Switch on July 13, this high-octane party game has local and online co-op, and is the first game to be both developed and published by 4J Studios, the team that brought the gaming phenomenon Minecraft to consoles.
Focus on a ‘games for everyone’ approach to publishing 4J Studios has today announced a move into publishing, with the first title, Skye Tales by Puny Astronaut, launching in 2023. More titles are set to be announced next year, including future 4J Studios’ games and titles from fellow Scottish developers Ant Workshop and StormCloud. The publishing of […]
