Step into the shoes of a Vegas hitman on a mission to obliterate the local crime lords and loot their gambling dens. In Jackal, players will raid casinos and hotels, executing unsuspecting mobsters in unforgiving close-quarters combat. Success hinges on your ability to wield anything within reach—be it guns, knives, pool cues, chairs, or even household items. No two playthroughs will be the same, thanks to randomly generated rooms and stackable gameplay mutators.
"Jackal combines my love of John Wick fight scenes, Scorsese's mobsters, Tarantino's storytelling, and the soul of the 1970s," says the creator Michał Marcinkowski. Jackal is set to launch at the end of Q2 2025.
