Anarcute, a riot simulator which borrows some of the Katamari cuteness, is to launch on Steam and Xbox One this summer, developer Anarteam has announced.

Players will lead an adorable band of rioters against the oppressive forces of the corrupt Brainwash Patrol in a campaign across locations such as Tokyo and Paris.

  • Grow your one-man army to a powerful mob, and unlock new powers as you do
  • Throw objects and take down whole buildings while rioting your way through the city
  • Face special units including snipers and giant helicopters from the dark forces of the Brainwash Patrol
  • Lead the riot across 40 levels in a single-player campaign through cities such as Tokyo, Paris, Miami and Reykjavik

“With Anarcute we really wanted to create something special and bring a crazy, colourful world of fun and chaos together with tactical gameplay,” said Mathieu Leclercq, game designer at Anarteam. “When we won the first award, we didn’t know what an amazing journey we would go on but it’s been great to realise our vision of city-wide adorable destruction.”

A collective of five talented students at the French video game school Supinfogame, Anarteam has been developing Anarcute in their spare time during weekends and summer holidays.
