1888 in Wyoming, Purgatory. An area filled with wendigos and witches, gun smoke and darkness, sin and damnation. A fluid, chaotic environment that adapts to the memories, cultures, and ideologies of the souls that pass through. A series of events with genuinely mythological repercussions starts when a dead man wakes up with just the memory of a sculpture in black.

Take control of the dead man William Mason (Ron Perlman's voice) and enter the dark and ominous environment of Purgatory in this action-packed cover shooter that mixes twin-stick controls' fluidity with tactical cover utilisation. Test your mettle by dodging under cover while attempting to outgun your adversaries in the mysterious procedurally generated hunting grounds. Never before has the Wild West been this gloomy.

Gameplay

• Playing as a mysterious gunslinger with a burning skull for a head is how you play West of Dead. You recently passed away and are now trapped in Purgatory. Not long before you arrived, a mysterious preacher made his appearance in Purgatory, and ever since, the lately deceased have found themselves unable to find their way to the afterlife.
• You must track down this preacher to determine what needs to be done for the deceased, including yourself, to continue their search for everlasting rest.
• The game's tale is told by Ron Pearlman, who serves as the mystery gunslinger you play as inner monologues. As you go further into Purgatory, the memories you uncover say to the story's natural substance. These sporadic rewards, frequently given following boss battles, can be exchanged between levels to access brief narration-driven cutscenes by Pearlman.
