Anticipation for the Xbox Series X and PlayStation 5 is building with rumors circulating about the respective capabilities of the consoles. While many players are interested in the specifications of the next-generation consoles, many are also intrigued by what games they will be able to play. A new multiplayer melee-based game is now coming to both consoles in the form of Flea Madness, and it looks set to impress players who enjoy a unique art style and humor.

The Unreal Engine has been the focus of praise after a PlayStation 5 demonstration and the team behind Flea Madness has been using the technology to create an independent style. Although there is plenty to be uncovered about the game, the initial trailer, which offers players an opportunity to play the title in its alpha form, offers humor and action gameplay.

The monologue that begins the trailer details a Darwinian inspired world where only the strong survive. The trailer warns players of predators and the skills required to become one before unveiling action-packed gameplay that lives up to the madness described in the title. The fast-paced title showcased protection elements as well as all-out attacks in a brightly colored world which will likely intrigue players. Exactly how the game will use its multiplayer components is not very clear, but it will likely place players against each other as they use melee attacks. While this title may not be the highest-profile title to come to the next generation, it certainly looks like it will entertain players and provide plenty of fun.

With new features coming to the Xbox Series X and PlayStation 5 it will be interesting to see if Flea Madness can utilize these elements to make it stand out from the competition. At the moment, the game is promising players the ability to pick what species they will play as and the ability to customize player traits. This will be enough to intrigue some players who enjoy a quirky art style combat but others may want to see more before they are convinced.

Plenty of fans are eagerly awaiting news about what games are coming to the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X and fans of independent games will be glad to see this addition to the upcoming roster. The unique Flea Madness will have some tough competition in the next generation but it looks like the title will use its sense of humor to give it a fighting chance in the market.

Flea Madness does not currently have a release date.
