by

Summary

  • Turbo Overkill now available on Xbox Series X/S for $19.99, offering cyberpunk chaos and fast-paced carnage at 60FPS.
  • Experience high-octane FPS gameplay with double-jumping, wall-running, and a variety of weapons in a neon-lit city setting.
  • All-star voice cast and killer soundtrack make Turbo Overkill stand out in 2025’s shooter lineup while highlighting Microsoft’s focus on indie shooters.

Turbo Overkill’s high-octane action and chainsaw-driven chaos, originally launched on Xbox Series X/S by Apogee Entertainment, is now available. This intense cyberpunk first-person shooter has been running on PC for more than a year, with the recent launch offering the most comprehensive version yet since its initial release in 2023.

In simple terms, Jeron Moore, the Executive Producer at Apogee, shared updates about Turbo Overkill on Xbox Wire along with a launch trailer for the console. The game is now available to play on Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, and Xbox Series X/S, all priced at $19.99.

If you’re new to this game, it’s an action-packed first-person shooter where you assume the character of Johny Turbo, a cyber-enhanced protagonist on a mission to annihilate a renegade AI named Syn. Your objective is to seize control of the vibrant metropolis known as Paradise, armed with an over-the-top collection of weapons that includes a chainsaw-equipped leg.

Turbo Overkill’s Fast-Paced Carnage

Turbo Overkill blends the action from ’90s shooter games such as Doom, yet incorporates contemporary features. With the ability to double-jump and wall-run, you can quickly reach your enemies. Additionally, a chainsaw leg lets you slide towards them at 60FPS for swift destruction.

In addition to dynamic actions, Turbo Overkill offers a mind-blowing collection of weaponry, including the Telefragger sniper rifle and twin magnums. The armor upgrade heightens the adrenaline rush as you fight through intense battles while traversing corporate towers, neon-lit slums, and distant battlefields in Paradise.

A Star-Studded Voice Cast and Killer Soundtrack

As a gamer, I’m pumped about Turbo Overkill not just for its intense gameplay, but also for its star-studded voice cast that adds another layer of immersion to the game. For instance, Patricia Summersett, known for her role in Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom, brings Ripper, the bounty hunter, to life. Then there’s D.B. Cooper from BioShock 2 who lends his voice to the Exec character in the corporate world. And that’s just scratching the surface!

Instead of the thumping noise, developers have added a thrilling medley of heavy metal, synthwave, and cinematic orchestral tunes created by Nikola Jeremic, Chipper Hammond, and Tim Stoney. This soundtrack can be found on Apogee Music now.

This year, Turbo Overkill enters the crowded First-Person Shooter (FPS) market alongside games like DOOM: The Dark Ages, Destiny 2, Call of Duty: Black Ops 6, and their sequels. It aims to capitalize on its fast-paced, unadulterated, and straightforward chaos, distinguishing itself from these other titles.

1) Not only does the arrival of this game on Xbox solidify its position as a prime destination for fast-paced first-person shooter games, alongside titles like Neon White and Ultrakill. But it also highlights Microsoft’s emphasis on indie shooters, particularly in light of their Indie Selects Anniversary celebration that offers significant discounts.
