From developer Troglobytes Games:
HyperParasite offers rad visuals, fast-paced action, tight controls and is set in the bodacious 80s. The game features 60 different classes, all of which you can control and exploit their own attributes, weapons and moves, to present a game of outrageous action and rip-roaring brawling at its very best.
In HyperParasite, it’s the dude you control that is packed with the boom, no more scrabbling for weaponry and panicking at a boss encounter. With 60 different characters to take control of, players may snatch the best host body for the scenario and kick butt.
Troglobytes Games launched its Kickstarter for the game in October 2018. Since releasing on Steam Early Access, the game has received weekly updates including two brand new acts, developer and community gameplay streams, new characters, levels, mini-bosses, gameplay mechanics and quality of life features. As part of this update, HyperParasite will increase from $10.99 to $12.99 and has received a revised release date of Q1 2020.
