Mother Russia Bleeds

Released Sep 2016

An old-fashioned beat 'em up with big doses of adrenaline and trippiness, somewhere between the classic style of Streets of Rage and the ultra-violence of Hotline Miami. Set in a cold, ruthless Soviet Union, Mother Russia Bleeds aims to conjure up anxiety, unease, and drug-addled frenzy.

Evaluation

Mother Russia Bleeds launched on September 5, 2016 as a complete, self-contained beat 'em up. Following launch, the developer issued a series of bug fix and improvement patches through October 7, 2016, with the final known patch (1.0.4) mentioning that the team was busy with a PS4 port and hoped to "work on new stuff soon." No new content was ever announced or delivered after that point. There are no unreleased DLC listings, no roadmaps, no expansion announcements, and no developer communications of any kind after October 7, 2016. The game shipped as a finished product with a story mode and survival mode, and all post-launch activity was limited to polish patches in the weeks immediately following release. The store description makes no mention of planned updates or additional content.

About this game

Mother Russia Bleeds is an ultra-violent co-op brawler overflowing with an unmistakable style and unforgettably brutal action for up to four players at once. Set in an alternate U.S.S.R, the story centers on a desperate crew of imprisoned street fighters that must overcome an oppressive criminal authority and forced drug addictions through any means necessary. Battle solo or alongside friends in an exceptional story mode campaign or harden your resolve in the savage Survival Mode.

Merciless Struggle: Pull yourself up from the cold, hard ground to punch, claw, and stab your way through the hardened ghettos, violent prisons, grim laboratories, and decadent clubs.

Powerful Narcotics: Embrace your crippling addiction with a quick injection to crush skulls, snap necks, and tear flesh from bone in a drug-fueled maniacal rage. Find your next fix flowing through the veins of your fallen foes and jam your needle into their convulsing bodies to fill your beloved syringe.

Local Co-Op: Crack your knuckles and select a combatant to go it alone or rumble alongside friends in an ultraviolent co-op ruckus with up to four players.
