FULL METAL JACKET FOR GUNGRAVE G.O.R.E

New Skin – BRANDON HEAT – Gives Grave New Moves, Abilities and Look

Theale, UK – 31 October, 2022: Gungrave G.O.R.E – the stylish third-person action shooter by South-Korean Studio IGGYMOB – will have an entirely new in-game skin called Brandon Heat - changing all of Grave’s moves, abilities and design.
 
This pack will be available to all players once they complete one simple task: beating the game on the highest difficulty (G.O.R.E).
 
As the titular Gunslinger of Resurrection, you become the badass anti-hero of your dreams, an ultimate killing machine, brutalising your foes without mercy. Taking cover and retreating is not an option for Grave, he only ever goes full steam ahead, preferably right through his enemies.
 
Brandon Heat was Grave’s human form, when he was one of the top assassins in the Mafia organisation, Millenion. Fifteen years after his death he was revived as Beyond the Grave (shortened down to Grave) and was resurrected – using advanced necrolisation technology – and went to seek revenge on the man who killed him: his former best friend and Millenion associate Harry MacDowell.
 
But MacDowell didn’t just kill Brandon; he also killed Grave’s former boss – and father figure – Big Daddy in a takeover of Millenion. Daddy’s daughter – Mika – seeks Grave’s protection, essentially becoming his adopted daughter.
 
Grave then has to fight his way through a city overrun by drugs, thugs and mutated soldiers – called Orgmen – in the hunt for revenge.
 
Gungrave G.O.R.E will be blasting into stores on 22 November 2022 on PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series S|X and PC.
