'Stupid Never Dies': A New Era in Action RPGs
SEGA has announced an exhilarating new action RPG, 'Stupid Never Dies,' set to launch on October 22, 2026, for PlayStation®5 and PC (Steam). Developed by GPTRACK50, a new studio composed of talented staff behind beloved franchises like 'Devil May Cry' and 'Dragon’s Dogma,' this game promises to deliver an adrenaline-fueled gaming experience.
Premise of 'Stupid Never Dies'
In a world filled with challenges and dangers, players will embody Davie, a zombie protagonist determined to resurrect his frozen heroine, Julia. To achieve this, players will need to utilize exciting game mechanics like 'Body Hack,' which allows Davie to implant gear into his body, and 'Style Eat,' enabling him to absorb the abilities of defeated foes.
As players navigate through perilous dungeons across an alternate universe, they will experience a thrilling journey of growth and redemption. Can Davie fulfill his vow to bring Julia back to life amidst overwhelming odds?
