Grove Street Games has released a new dev log for BeastLink as part of the “Meet The Beasts” series. This time, the team has introduced the Bull Shark Kaiju, emerging from the ocean with razor-sharp teeth. Like many other creatures, it possesses crushing power, but also a unique ability to unleash devastating lightning.
Beast Overview
The Bull Shark was designed as a true tank for the battlefield. The concept began as a giant quadrupedal shark, initially seen as a silly idea but quickly became a team favorite. The design binds together two defining traits: a devastating bite and electroreception. The Bull Shark doesn’t just defeat prey. The predator loves to toy with it, clamping enemies in its jaws and launching them into the air.
Special Abilities
- Electric Strike: Charges an AOE lightning attack that calls down a devastating bolt from the sky, dealing damage to enemy Beasts caught in its path.
- Death Leap: Launches high into the air before crashing down with a powerful bite on the enemy Beast’s head.
- Volt Vortex: Opens gills to draw in electricity, covering the body in a temporary electric field that shocks attacking opponents.
- Jolt Javelin: Unleashes charged energy through the dorsal fin with a bow-like motion.
Unlockable Skills
- Head Smack: Swings the head back and forth to smack enemy Beasts.
- Slash: Uses arm-like flippers to deliver disorienting punches.
- Heavy Tailspin: Uses the heavy tail to send enemies flying.
- Heavy Bite: Leaps forward to bite the enemy Beast and spits out flesh afterward.
BeastLink is an upcoming multiplayer action game where humans, vehicles, and colossal Beasts collide in urban environments. Players build special Link with monster and unleash their powers. The game prepares to enter Early Access on August 18.
