B.ARK

Released: 7/29/2021

Help these heroic pets take back Earth in this Shoot ‘em up adventure! Blast through waves of the evil cybernetic fish armada Dark Tide, and fight to take back the Solar System as the members of Team B.ARK: good boy Barker the Dog, Felicity the wise-cracking Cat, Lucio the overprotective Bear and cautious-but-quick Marv the Rabbit. Dark Tide has taken over the Earth and are spreading their reign of terror into outer space! Hop in a mech for up to 4-player co-op as you battle through multiple galactic stages full of hand-animated characters and enemies. Each member of Team B.ARK has their own unlockable backstory and unique gameplay style to fit their fuzzy personality. Pilot a furry friend solo or fuse mech abilities with family and friends to unleash each character’s out-of-this-world Super Attack capable of completely clearing the screen of incoming enemy forces! Face-off against challenging boss battles as you go up against the likes of Spike the Narwhal, Vic the Sea Snake, and a whole slew of intimidating bad guys dead set on destroying you at all costs. Work as a team, but be sure to grab the most plutonium from defeated enemies to see how your high-score ranks against your fellow teammates. Can you defeat the Dark Tide before their deep-sea forces completely take over the Solar System?! Squad up and fight to take back the Earth in B.ARK!
