“Right from the start, Guacamelee! offers up a sugar skull-covered playground to delight in and devour with mucho gusto. It's a game I'll be playing and replaying again for some time to come.”

About This Game

Guacamelee! Gold Edition is a Metroidvania-style action-platformer set in a magical Mexican-inspired world. The game draws its inspiration from traditional Mexican culture and folklore, and features many interesting and unique characters.

Guacamelee! builds on the classic open-world Metroidvania style of games by adding deep melee combat, a new dimension switching mechanic, and cooperative local multiplayer. The game also blurs the boundaries between combat and platforming by making many moves useful and necessary for both.

Travel through a mystical and mysterious Mexican world as a luchador using the power of your two fists to battle evil. Uncover hidden wrestling techniques like the Rooster Uppercut, and Dimension Swap to open new areas and secrets.

Key Features

  • Use combat moves for both fighting enemies and platforming challenges

  • Swap between multiple overlapping dimensions (World of the Living and the World of the Dead)

  • "El Infierno" level expansion. Brave the fires of El Infierno and prove yourself in a series of challenges to unlock powerful new costumes for Juan and Tostada

  • Player costumes! Swap costumes to change the attributes of your Hero, and obtain new achievements

  • Steam Achievements, Leaderboards, Cloud Save, and Big Picture Mode

  • Trading Cards

  • Create new custom costumes and share these with others via Steam Workshop

  • Drop in/out 2-Player local co-operative play for the entire story

  • Chickens. Lots and lots of Chickens

Also Included: Guacamelee! Super Turbo Championship Edition!
