Developer Qureate has announced that their upcoming action-shooter Maid of the Dead is set to be released on Nintendo Switch on February 15, followed by a Steam release in late spring this year.
According to the game's official description,
Akiba is suddenly turned into the city of nightmares, when a virus that turns people into zombies appears out of nowhere! Citizens scramble to escape, but as the virus runs rampant, it quickly turns anyone in its path.
In the midst of this all, Nagisa Hihara learns that her blood might just carry a special anti-body to counter the virus.
Given new hope, Nagisa prepares herself for battle as she sets outs to save her friend Rinka and any other survivors she may find along the way.
What decisions will these girls face as they get one step closer to learning about the events that lead to the start of this pandemic?
The fight between gun-wielding maids and zombies begins!
In the game, players can raise the girls' levels by defeating zombies, acquiring distinct skills as they progress. Skills, such as launching missiles and deploying drones, can be freely combined. Furthermore, a special move gauge accumulates during battles, allowing the girls to unleash their special move when fully charged. However, the use of these special moves is restricted, demanding players to strategically activate them at the right moment.
