If you’ve been craving an adrenaline-soaked, high-octane alternative to the standard crop of modern live-service shooters, CAGE Studios is cooking up exactly what you need.

Gunstoppable, the highly anticipated momentum-based, fast-paced roguelite boomer shooter, has officially locked in its release date. Mark your calendars: the game is breaking out the big guns on PC via Steam and Xbox consoles on Wednesday, August 5, 2026.

The pedigree behind this absolute riot of a game? It’s led by a former God of War developer who is trading mythological hack-and-slash action for brutal, retro-inspired firearm ballet.

Speed Equals Destruction: How It Plays

In Gunstoppable, physics are your best friend—and your deadliest weapon. The team at CAGE Studios has built a movement philosophy where the speed limit is completely non-existent. The faster you move, the harder you hit. To survive the bullet-hell barrages waiting for you, you’ll need to master a fluid kinetic toolkit:

• Slide & Wall-Run: Keep your momentum flowing across cyberpunk cityscapes and underwater prisons.
• Grapple & Rail-Grind: Sling yourself into danger or escape tight corners in the blink of an eye.
• Time-Bending Parries: Deflect incoming chaos and slow down time to shatter clusters of enemies at once.

Every death makes you stronger, giving you the classic, addictive roguelite loop wrapped in a pristine 90s FPS aesthetic.

Over-The-Top Customisation: “If It Sounds Broken, It Is”

True to its boomer shooter roots, the arsenal in Gunstoppable leans heavily into pure, unadulterated absurdity. Players can dual-wield completely mismatched, game-breaking weapon combinations. Want to stack upgrades that turn a standard shotgun into a cascading flamethrower? Go for it. Want to turn literal bananas into tactical nukes? The developers actively encourage it.

Topple Billionaires, Save the World

You aren’t just blowing up rogue robots for the sake of it. You play as a finely tuned killing machine embarking on a capitalist-toppling quest to save your sister and take down evil, war-profiteering CEO billionaires.

Because it’s a high-stakes, one-way revenge trip, your character decides to do what any reasonable hero would do in 2026: livestream the entire rampage to the world. As you pull off stylish takedowns against eccentric bosses (like “Johnny Jetpack” and literal fame-hungry nepo babies), your in-game view count skyrockets, inspiring citizens worldwide to rise up against their oppressors.

Fun Fact: The voice cast features an extra layer of internet culture—viral “Okay Boomer” meme creator Neekolul joins the fully-voiced story campaign, bringing a wonderfully meta touch to a literal “boomer shooter.”

PC & Xbox Launch Details

Gunstoppable launches on Wednesday, August 5, 2026. PC players can already head over to Steam to add the game to their wishlists to prepare for launch discounts, while console players can get ready to rumble on Xbox Series X|S.

The game is highly optimised, even boasting a “Potato Mode” in the graphics settings so you can chase triple-digit framerates regardless of your rig.
