Press release

Sobaka Studio’s cybernetic smash hit, KIBORG, takes aim at August 29th for its VERY physical PlayStation 5 launch

Launching exclusively for PlayStation 5, the relentless beat’em-up roguelite is getting the ultimate hands-on treatment with a boxed edition full of goodies, arriving on August 29th.

London, UK – June 25th - Indie developers Sobaka Studio and publisher Perp Games are wiping off the knuckledusters for a no-holds-barred physical launch of the critically acclaimed KIBORG this August.
 
What fresh hell is this?
Officially launched in April 2025 on PCPlayStation, and Xbox platforms, KIBORG is a high-intensity, fast-paced action roguelite with brutal, cybernetic-enhanced combat. The old-school beat'em-up shooter hybrid puts you into the steel-toe-capped boots of prisoner Morgan Lee, who is staring down the barrel of a 1,300-year sentence for a crime he didn’t commit. The worst part? Death won’t even set him free. One wrong move and “The Last Ticket” that ensures freedom will leave his blood-soaked grip quicker than a regenerative respawn back to the beginning.
 
Once and for brawl!
Fighting through hordes of inmates to ensure a one-way ticket outta there is the name of the game. With little room for error, use every tool in Morgan’s cybernetic arsenal to unleash brutal, devastating attacks. With the ability to craft countless deadly bone-crushing combos with firearms, melee weapons, and special attacks as you progress, nothing but a trail of blood and carnage should remain in his path. Endless replayability ensues when he faces off with dozens of enemies and enemy types with unique abilities and tactics that have been mixed and matched to create a torrent of merciless encounters.
 
Rob Edwards, CEO of Perp Games, comments: “Sobaka Studio has a strong track record of creating top quality, gritty beat’em up-style combat titles that fans of the genres - and Perp Games - praise highly. With a host of other games in the works and the upcoming physical launch of the critically acclaimed KIBORG, we are excited to get it into the hands of players from August 29th and seeing where the studio goes next.”
 
The price of freedom
Containing a blood-drenched host of goodies (and only one baddie), the boxed edition of KIBORG for PlayStation 5 should satiate the appetite of physical collectors, roguelite renegades, and brawler fans alike. KIBORG will be available from selected retailers on August 29th for an SRP of £29.99/€34.99.
