Divine Knockout: Third-Person Platform Fighter will be released in December

Third-person platform fighting game Divine Knockout will be released on December 6th, 2022.

Red Beard Games and publisher Hi-Rez have announced that their new third-person platformer fighting game Divine Knockout (DKO) will be available on December 6th for PC, PlayStation and Xbox.

The Founder’s Edition, which includes the full game, 8 gods, cosmetic items and a special bonus for SMITE, and the Ultimate Edition, which includes even more gods and cosmetic extras, will then be available to all players.

Immersing players in a colorful world of gods and mythology, Divine Knockout is the first-ever third-person platform fighting game. Throw boulders as Hercules, unleash the power of Excalibur or swing Thor’s hammer Mjolnir – all no problem in DKO, the power of the gods is just a button press away.

This gameplay trailer gives you a first impression:

DKO takes ideas from classic 2D platform fighting games and translates them into all three dimensions, putting the player right in the middle of the action. Players damage enemies to make them vulnerable, then knock them out of the arena with a powerful slash.

Each arena has new obstacles and dangers to overcome, from crumbling floors to deadly traps. DKO will be released on all platforms with full support for Cross play and cross progression.

This means that starting December 6th, all DKO players, regardless of platform, will be able to play alongside their friends in all game modes including Knockout, King of the Hill, Coin Hunt and Chaos Crown. Thanks to cross-progression, progress made and items purchased are still available even if you switch platforms.

“DKO features expressive characters in destructible environments,” said Alexandre Grimonpont, Executive Producer at Red Beard Games. “Whether it’s one-on-one, two-on-two combat, or our three-on-three Arcade mode, where each round features a new arena and game mode, DKO’s impressive skill sets are in intense, tight fights guaranteed exciting moments. It’s a great party game, but competitive players with a lot of ambition will also enjoy it.”

“We wanted everyone, regardless of skill level, to be able to jump straight into the game and have fun,” said Alex Cantatore, VP of Publishing at Hi-Rez. “All of the gods in DKO have their own attacks and skills, each of which can be triggered with just one key press. Powerful skills are at your fingertips, no confusing combos required. DKO is all about timing, positioning and quick decisions. Complicated key combinations have no place in the game.”
