KILL KNIGHT is an ultra-responsive arcade-inspired isometric action shooter. Condemned to eternal sufferance, deep within the voids of an eldritch arena, you must wield an arsenal of devastating weaponry to obliterate swarms of otherworldly horrors - and MASTER THE DEMON WITHIN.
268 hourly samples, with the daily peak drawn over them. Weekends are shaded.
24 months, October 2024 to September 2026. The highest number of people in the game at once, each month, on a time axis -- a gap in the record stays a gap.
The highest number of people in the game at once, each month. Four, because four is as far back as the source keeps anything finer than one figure a month.
31 days, each one the highest figure that day. The source keeps no hourly detail this far back. Weekends are shaded.
31 days as the curve, each the highest figure that day. Behind it, 163 hourly samples from 13 Aug, which is as far back as the source keeps every hour. Weekends are shaded.
12 days as the curve, each the highest figure that day. Behind it, 105 hourly samples. Each dip is a night. Weekends are shaded.
KILL KNIGHT was released on 2 Oct, 2024.
There is frequent violence present in the game as the protagonist defends himself against many enemies. The combat is fantastical and not very realistic, however there is a lot of blood displayed & so this game may not be suitable for younger audiences.
