GOOD SHEPHERD ENTERTAINMENT TO RELEASE ITALO GAMES’ 1970s CRIME FILM ACTION MASTERPIECE MILANOIR ON MAY 31

Good Shepherd Entertainment and independent developer Italo Games have have revealed that Milanoir, the bloody action homage to the masterpiece Italian crime movies of the 1970s, will launch on May 31, 2018. The game will be available on Nintendo Switch™ and Windows PC, as well as two previously unannounced platforms: the PlayStation®4 computer entertainment system and Xbox One.  

Inspired by classic films like Caliber 9 and Almost Human, Milanoir is a story of greed, betrayal and revenge drawn to life with stylish pixel art graphics and a funky ‘70s soundtrack. Sneak, choke and shoot through the violent criminal underbelly of Milan on the hunt for the man who framed you, surviving breathtaking vehicle chases and gunfights while taking out anyone who stands in your way.

Milanoir’s action-packed campaign can be experienced alone or with a partner in crime with two-player local co-op. This feature has even been designed with the unique capabilities of the Nintendo Switch™ in mind, as it allows two players to complete its entire action packed campaign in Co-Op mode on one console with each player using one Joy‑Con™ controller. The game also features a fast-paced arena mode that will put your death-defying talents to the test.
