Tower 57 is a 16-bit top-down twin-stick shooter. The game offers co-operative play, so that you can play with friends. It is the latest title to be announced for Microsoft’s Xbox Play Anywhere platform, bringing the game to Xbox One and Windows 10 at the same time, universally.

A description of the game reads:

Now, imagine being lost in a steampunk-themed tower-like fortress full of threats straight from campy sci-fi stories. Some of these enemies have tentacles, others with cutting-edge lasers, but all share the same agenda: putting an end to your existence. Now think of the same situation, but with a Tesla gun in your hand, plenty of ammo at your disposal, and a friend who’s got your back. Sounds like a much different, more explosive story doesn’t it?

There’s no set release date for Tower 57, however, the developers, 11bit studios, will share more “in the coming months.”
