Wild West Multiplayer Game is Free on Steam

by

Up for grabs on Steam: “Wild West: Prototype”, a lively cowboy-themed first-person shooter tailored for LAN gatherings, is available free of charge! Launched by independent developer Matteo S.-C. on July 14th,

The Steam page for the game, “Wild West: Prototype,” indicates that it is designed as a trial version of a first-person shooter (FPS) that can only be played locally via LAN and supports up to six players simultaneously. It’s unclear if this limitation to LAN parties is exclusive to the prototype or an essential aspect of the indie developer’s forthcoming release. Although most multiplayer PC games with a wide audience offer online support for easier player connections, there are still numerous local co-op games available on Steam.

Users can include “Wild West: Prototype” in their Steam collections by navigating to its store page. This fresh, free-to-play indie shooter puts six competitors against one another in an ancient western ghost town nestled within a dense forest. The objective of the game is to amass a bounty by defeating other players while enduring as long as possible. Equipped with weapons reminiscent of popular Wild West games, such as lever-action rifles, revolvers, and knives, players can inflate the price on their heads.

It’s worth noting that the description for the game “Wild West: Prototype” on Steam reveals that the developer employs Generative AI in their creation process. Specifically, the game’s menu music is generated by this AI technology. This isn’t exclusive to “Wild West: Prototype”, as it seems a considerable number of games on Steam have made similar disclosures about using Generative AI. Since Valve started mandating AI use disclosure in January 2024, around 20% of the games on Steam have followed suit.

Prototype” will eventually rank among the top free co-op games available on Steam is yet to be determined.
