4J Studios (@4JStudios) #ManicMechanics, the chaotic couch co-op game where you and up to three fellow grease monkeys pay a visit to the car-obsessed Octane Isle, is heading to Xbox One, Xbox Series XS, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5 and PC (Steam) on March 7.
In Manic Mechanics, up to four players pull on their overalls and head to the auto-obsessed Octane Isle, looking to make a name for themselves as traveling mechanics. Players challenge the Master Mechanics who rule the island to prove their crew is worthy of joining the mechanics guild.
It’s a race against the clock to repair as many cars (trucks, choppers, tractors, mini-subs and UFOs...) as possible. The faster the mechanics work, the more chaos is unleashed; intricate mechanical processes are hindered by fuel spills, exploding tires, short-circuiting robots, stampeding cows and even alien abductions, with hilariously chaotic consequences.
Building on community feedback from the Nintendo Switch release, 4J Studios has added a host of new features and content to this laugh-out-loud party game – most notably the incorporation of a ‘Versus’ mode to complement the local and online co-op gameplay. In addition to this (potentially friendship-ending) competitive mode, the all-formats release also includes a whole new neighborhood, new characters, and entertaining twists to some of the most popular levels.
The Nintendo Switch version will be enhanced with new game modes and extra content that same day, with existing players receiving a free update.
Manic Mechanics launches March 7, 2024 on Xbox One, Xbox X|S, PS4, PS5, and PC (Steam). The game was released for the Nintendo Switch on July 13, 2023.
