Gunhead

About

Gunhead casts you as a rogue mech with a literal gun for a head, scavenging abandoned spacecraft crawling with biomechanical enemies. Battle through procedurally generated derelicts using jetpack mobility and a rotating arsenal of four weapons. Each ship requires adaptive tactics, balance armor-piercing rounds, hacking tools, and explosive mods to dismantle layered security systems. Loot and upgrade systems carry over between runs, but no two missions feel alike thanks to shifting layouts and enemy compositions. The game builds on Cryptark’s DNA with faster gunplay and deeper customization. Over 50 weapons and modifiers let you shape playstyles from sniper precision to chaotic shotgunning. Post-launch support includes new ship blueprints and weapon sets, with a dedicated fan base already dissecting optimal build synergies. Available on PC and PlayStation 5 since November 2023.
