Pizza Bandit has released in Early Access on PC

Developer JofSoft has officially released its Gears of War and Overcooked-inspired video game, Pizza Bandit, into Early Access on PC via Steam and Epic Games Store. It’s a chaotic third-person co-op shooter where hilarious bounty hunting and panic-fueled cooking collide across space and time.

JofSoft plans to add new missions, enemies, recipes, cosmetics, and restaurant content as development continues. 

Here is an overview of Pizza Bandit:

In Pizza Bandit, players become a time-traveling ex-mercenary, Malik, with an oddly specific dream–opening the galaxy’s greatest pizza joint. To fund that dream, players will travel across eras, take down dangerous targets, and cook under literal fire. From flipping dough in a warzone to serving up kills with style, every mission is a multitasking meltdown!
