Lollipop Chainsaw RePOP Celebrates Launch In New Trailer, Steam Version Has No Denuvo

A sweet return with a few surprises

A remake of a cult classic

Lollipop Chainsaw is a cult classic action game initially released in 2012 and developed by Grasshopper Manufacture, known for their offbeat and stylish games. The game follows Juliet Starling, a high school cheerleader with a chainsaw who fights off hordes of zombies during a zombie outbreak on her campus.

The game garnered a niche following due to its unique blend of action, horror, and comedy but was never a commercial success. In recent years, there has been a demand for a remake, leading to the upcoming Lollipop Chainsaw RePOP.

A fresh coat of paint

Lollipop Chainsaw RePOP is a complete remake of the original game, featuring updated graphics, gameplay, and a new soundtrack. The trailer showcases the game's vibrant and over-the-top visuals, showcasing Juliet's zombie-slaying skills and the game's signature blend of gore and humor.

The gameplay has also been refined. The trailer shows off new moves and abilities for Juliet, including a new grappling hook that adds verticality to the combat. The game also features new enemy types and bosses, ensuring a fresh experience for both returning and new players.

No Denuvo on Steam

One notable change for the Steam version of Lollipop Chainsaw RePOP is the absence of Denuvo anti-tamper technology. Denuvo has been controversial in recent years, with some gamers claiming it can impact game performance. The developers have confirmed that the Steam version will be Denuvo-free, potentially appealing to gamers who prefer to avoid DRM software.

Conclusion

Lollipop Chainsaw RePOP is shaping to be a faithful and enhanced remake of the cult classic game. With its updated visuals, refined gameplay, and the absence of Denuvo on Steam, the game looks like a promising return for Juliet Starling and her chainsaw.
