AK-xolotl: Protect Your Pond in the First Teaser From New Arcade Shooter

The chances of being gunned down by an adorable salamander are low, but never zero.

AK-xolotl, the forthcoming top-down arcade shooter, has revealed its first teaser showcasing what you'll be up against in an effort to defend your pond. You can check out the full teaser trailer above.

Singularly developed by Daniel Piqueras Constantin, AK-xolotl pits the world's cutest amphibian, the axolotl, against waves of enemies like field mice and deadly predators vying to do bad things to the plucky little buddy.

Fortunately, not only can our semiaquatic protagonist regrow most parts of its body, it comes with a full arsenal of 15 different weapons and rare variants, six power-ups to even the odds, and online leaderboards so you and your friends can finally settle that heated debate over who'd be the best salamander with a gun.

AK-xolotl is slated to hit PC on Steam in Q2 2021 and looking at potentially supporting consoles at some point down the line. For the time being, you can follow along at the AK-xolotl Steam page.
