Developer 2Awesome Studio and publisher Playstack has announced a free update for AK-xolotl adding co-op, and more features.

The co-op is local only, but as the press release says: “What’s better than an Axolotl with an AK-47? TWO Axolotls with AK-47s!”. Regarding the update, the publisher says: “Whether you are a returning player or checking it out for the first time, this updates brings a lot of fun and firepower to the Pond. Come on it, the water’s fine— maybe just a little explosive.”

Check out the new launch trailer for the update, below:

 

Ready to unleash some amphibious anarchy? AK-xolotl, the charmingly chaotic roguelike shooter, just got a massive upgrade as it’s adding couch co-op to the mix.
