Beans Is Tired of Sharing the Stage With Rice, and Proves It With a Wild Trailer

Beans and rice go together like, well, beans and rice. What happens when one of the two decides he’s way too much of a badass to keep sharing the stage with the other? You get Killer Bean, a brand new single-dev roguelike that features a no-nonsense, no f*cks given, rogue assassin coffee bean whose only goal is to destroy the Shadow Agency.

Friday evening during the 2024 Summer Games Fest, we got a sneak peek at just what exactly Killer Bean was, and let me tell you, that coffee bean really knows his way around a pistol. Like, he goes really hard. From jumping out of his sports car to get some mid-air shots in at a biker, taking on firefight all while dual wielding pistols and flipping through the air like an acrobat, to breakdancing on a deadly dance floor, Bean gets sh*t done, and he does it in style.

Killer Beans is a roguelike shooter that allows you to help Bean take out the trash, “one bullet at a time” in first or third person, all while making sure you dispel the Shadow Agency as effectively as possible, and you’ll get a new taste of this outrageous story every time you start a new campaign.

While there’s no reason for Killer Bean to be as intense as the trailers make it seem, I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t super excited for its release so I could try it out for myself.
