Do you have inexplicable urges for massive destruction?

Or want to be a certified creator of chaos?

Look no further because KING OF MEAT, the most-watched, sometimes controversial, but always talked-about survival gameshow is coming to PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, PC, and Nintendo Switch.

Developed by Glowmade and published by Amazon Games, KING OF MEAT is a colourful combat spectacle pitching fearless Contenders against dungeon creating masterminds. Battle through others’ devious creations in style, build your own fiendish dungeon, or just outshine everyone with your dazzling custom appearance. There’s always more room for fame and fortune at the top.

Loregok is a mystical world at the intersection of high fantasy, glitz, glamour, modern day celebrity media-infatuation, and of course, corporate commercialism. Nothing is more valuable than our KING OF MEAT participants. Contestants are broken down into Contenders and Dungeon Creators until there is nothing left except shattered records and bones. What are you waiting for? Sign up now for alerts on future playtests, become a Contender in the most exciting show in the universe, and begin your road to stardom.

The Road to Stardom

Each team of up to four aspiring Contenders - young, old or ageless - can challenge any dungeon in hopes of one day entering the Hall of Pain. Expect constant warm, passionate embraces from explosive flames, plus an excessive, unhealthy amount of attention from flying eyeballs, psychotic imps, and hardcore fans on your way to gold and glory.

Conquer the seemingly endless catalogue of unique dungeons to unlock new leagues, challenges, and more. But completion alone is not enough. You’ll need to captivate a bloodthirsty baying crowd with stylish weapons, combos, and over-the-top Glory Moves throughout each wild playground. In other words, style is substance. Whether you prefer to viciously punch enemies, meticulously navigate traps, or methodically solve ridiculous puzzles, Dungeon Creators cut Contenders some slack to make it possible. Just make sure they don’t cut anything else. We do not offer severance pay.

Learn more about key features, like creative co-op combat, on the Features page.

Your Dream Dungeon

Some call dungeons the original occupational hazard. Others, malicious compliance. For Komstruct, it’s just another Monday. As the company whose job it is to empower Dungeon Creators to build unpredictable dungeons, Komstruct takes everything about KING OF MEAT very seriously. Especially themselves. Once you’re ready, they’ll let you build your very own in Create Mode.

The road to stardom is paved with bad intentions. Dungeon Creators pour their blood, sweat, and fears into crafting only the finest obstacle courses for Contenders. Celebrate the misfortune of those in your dungeon, firmly smile as they outwit your favourite obstacle in seconds, and then scheme. Scheme ridiculous traps like lava-spitting skulls to ensure they fail your next creation again and again until every dwindling flame becomes a scalding reminder that their child’s sixteenth birthday party will start any minute now. Afterwards they will always cherish those delightfully dreadful hours, and hopefully prioritise their family, whenever they see a dungeon with your name on it.

Komstruct neither supports nor refutes this design philosophy. However, they did say Create Mode is intuitive. How will you become the most celebrated dungeon creator in Loregok? Find out more about corporations, such as Komstruct, on the Backstage page.

Looks that Kill

KING OF MEAT encourages creative flair. Sure you can wield a shiny red hammer because you like it but why stop there? This is a ruthless competition where Contenders will do whatever it takes to stand out. Put that toy away and grab a sausage hammer for form over function — Contenders affiliated with sausage weaponry have a statistically insignificant higher rate of success, .29% to be exact.

The denizens of Loregok want a champion with striking looks, not to mention easy merchandising. Imagine little Tommy making frenemies all because they wore your iconic rubber ducky on their head. Truly adorkable. Embrace chaotic customisations across outfits, accessories, emotes, weapons, and Glory Moves. As you progress, you’ll unlock even more cosmetics. Few Contenders survive the Komstruct Koliseum, so which of your looks will leave a lasting impression beyond each dungeon into the cold, dry eyes, and warm pitter-pattering hearts, of fans everywhere?

Stay tuned to the King of Meat site, along with our social channels (X, Facebook, and Instagram) for future updates and playtest opportunities.
