Titan Hunters Lets You Fire Your Friends Out of a Catapult at Giant Monsters

A physics-based co-op game where you defend your castle with cannons, ballistas, and your own teammates as ammunition. Wishlist it now on Steam.

The elevator pitch sells itself. You and up to three friends man a medieval castle full of cannons and ballistas. Giant monsters called Titans are stomping toward your walls. You load the guns, light the fuses, and blast them apart piece by piece. And when you run out of cannonballs, you can load a friend into the catapult and launch them face-first into a Titan.

That is Titan Hunters, and it just dropped its announcement trailer on Steam.

Developed by Playhero and published by Polden Publishing, Titan Hunters is a 1 to 4 player physics-based action game built around cooperative castle defense. The Titans are not just health bars on legs. Their bodies react to physics. You blow off arms and legs, break bones, and watch the destruction play out in full detail.

What Makes It Interesting

The co-op design is the hook. This is not a game where four players each do their own thing. Someone has to carry the heavy ammunition to the cannon. Someone else has to aim. A third player lights the fuse. And all of you scramble when the Titan swings its fist through your wall.

The chaos scales with player count. Solo, you manage everything yourself. With a full squad, the coordination (and the friendly fire) ramps up fast.

Between waves, you spend gold on upgrades. New weapons, magical shields, and structural reinforcements turn your starting wooden fort into a proper fortress. The Titans get bigger and meaner to match.

Why It Is on Our Radar

Physics co-op games have a track record of becoming surprise hits. Overcooked proved that cooperative chaos with friends is endlessly replayable. Human: Fall Flat showed that ragdoll physics create moments you cannot script. Titan Hunters sits at the intersection of both: the teamwork pressure of Overcooked with the slapstick destruction of a physics sandbox.

The “launch your friend as a projectile” mechanic alone will generate clips. If the core loop is tight, this could be a sleeper hit in the co-op party space.

When Can You Play It?

No release date yet. The Steam page is live with a wishlist button. Titan Hunters supports Windows (64-bit) with both solo play and online co-op for up to four players.

If you are into co-op games that create stories through physics and panic, add Titan Hunters to your wishlist on Steam.
