FixForce Launches: A Chaotic Co-op Extraction Platformer Experience

Surgent Studios has unveiled FixForce, a co-op extraction platformer that promises a unique blend of chaos and creativity. In this vibrant post-apocalyptic world, players take on the role of robot repairmen, working together to complete tasks while navigating the unpredictable nature of their environment.

In FixForce, players can team up with up to five friends to tackle various repair jobs. Each round presents a new challenge, requiring players to find replacement parts and fix broken machines under time constraints. However, the fun lies in the unexpected disasters that occur along the way. As players attempt to build structures like bridges, they may find their creations collapsing, leading to humorous and chaotic situations.

One of the standout features of FixForce is the ability to detach heads from bodies, allowing players to continue participating in the game even after “dying.” This mechanic adds a layer of strategy and humor, as players can zip around as disembodied heads, explore exclusive areas, or even revive teammates by reattaching heads to their bodies. This innovative approach transforms failure into an opportunity for creative problem-solving and teamwork.

Communication is key in FixForce, and the game incorporates proximity chat to enhance player interaction. This feature allows players to hear each other’s reactions, adding to the comedic experience as they navigate the challenges together. Additionally, each character is equipped with a laser pointer, enabling players to signal each other even from a distance, ensuring that teamwork remains intact.

Throughout its development, Surgent Studios focused on making the platforming experience more accessible, which in turn encouraged players to experiment with riskier builds. The game’s lobby has also been designed to help players practice their skills before diving into the main gameplay, ensuring a smoother experience for newcomers.

FixForce is now available on Xbox Series X|S and PC, and it supports Xbox Play Anywhere, allowing players to switch between platforms seamlessly. The game is also included in Xbox Game Pass, making it easily accessible for subscribers.

With its emphasis on creativity, humor, and cooperative gameplay, FixForce is set to offer players a unique experience where chaos reigns supreme, and every disaster is just another chance to innovate.
