We Love It's Guide to…

Cobalt

Cobalt follows a cyborg exploring a remote colony and searching for answers about what happened to the humans. Hostile robots, puzzles, boss fights, and tameable pets feature in the story, which can be played solo or in local co-op. Fight and platform through side-scrolling stages using ranged and melee weapons, shields, and customizable equipment. Combat rolls can deflect projectiles, while automatic slow motion lets you react to attacks and set up precise shots or maneuvers. Beyond the story, play Survival rounds with equipment upgrades between waves, take on combat and speed challenges, or compete in modes such as Deathmatch, Team Strike, and Plug Slam. Local and online multiplayer, leaderboards, and a level editor add other ways to play.

Explore a remote colony as Cobalt, a cyborg who fights through 2D stages with combat rolls, bullet deflections, and slow motion.

Forget everything you’ve learned about combat. Cobalt’s slo-mo mechanic lets you perform moves that other games can’t comprehend. Discover the secrets of a distant colony in a cosmic campaign, take on challenges and rule the leaderboards, or face off against others in local and online multiplayer.
