High On Life: Rick And Morty launches shooter game whose guns talk back

All four available guns come with talking faces on the back
WASHINGTON (Web Desk) - The video game ‘High On Life’ places the player in the position of a bounty hunter who embarks on various missions to eliminate different targets in increasingly bizarre, Alice In Wonderland-esque worlds.
A unique aspect to the game is that all four available guns come with talking faces on the back, which face the player and react with unique lines during the play-through. Every gun has their own complete set of dialogue and reactions.
High On Life comes from the mind of Justin Roiland, one of the comedy duo behind award-winning animated show Rick And Morty. The new video game is available on Xbox Game Pass, or for individual purchase on Xbox Series X and S, and PC.
Despite his success in a TV writer s room, Roiland says the nature of games makes them a far bigger challenge. Given just how much work goes into game development, the idea of artificial intelligence doing some heavy lifting is becoming mightily appealing.
The game otherwise features a full cast, including Roiland himself, Curb Your Enthusiasm star JB Smoove, and SpongeBob SquarePants actor Tom Kenny.
