The aliens have landed and taken over our world. It’s time for you to take it back. You’ll have to avoid all sorts of traps and hazards to do so. Hop in one of 30 vehicles and smash them to bits. If you need a little help, grab a friend for 2-player co-op. Mugsters lands on Switch later this summer.
