Brothers Joe and Andrew Fender, two of the minds behind the hit horror game DEVOUR, took the stage at the PC Gaming Show 2026 to reveal Sunset Summit.
This time, they are trading terror for teamwork in a cooperative climbing game launching on PC in 2026, with a free demo already available.
Race the Sun With Up to Eight Friends
Sunset Summit is built around one simple mission: reach the top of the mountain before sunset.
Players travel by hot air balloon to floating sky islands, where handcrafted climbing routes twist, branch and challenge your coordination.
The game supports one to eight players, making it perfect for chaotic group climbs or relaxed solo runs.
A Climbing Journey Designed for Cooperation
Each route offers a different perspective on the ascent, encouraging exploration and teamwork.
To keep the experience fun rather than punishing, the game features frequent checkpoints.
If someone slips, they respawn quickly and rejoin the climb without losing progress.
Communication is key, with proximity chat and portable radios helping teams coordinate their next move.
Tools Ranging From Practical to Completely Absurd
Players can rely on classic climbing gear like:
- Ropes and axes
- Equipment delivery drones for assisting teammates
But Sunset Summit also embraces chaos with unconventional tools such as:
- Bouncy poles
- Booster pills
- Umbrellas
- Other strange gadgets designed to create hilarious moments
It is a climbing game where strategy meets slapstick.
Elderly Climbers Take the Spotlight
One of Sunset Summit’s most charming twists is its cast of elderly protagonists.
These seasoned adventurers bring humor, personality and a refreshing change from typical action‑game heroes.
Capture Every Moment
An integrated camera lets players snap photos of their best climbs, worst falls and funniest disasters.
With multiple routes to the summit and support for offline single‑player, Sunset Summit is built for replayability and shared memories.
Sunset Summit is shaping up to be a joyful, chaotic and surprisingly heartfelt cooperative adventure, perfect for groups looking for something fresh, funny and full of altitude.
