The Behemoth, the studio behind Alien Hominid, Castle Crashers, and BattleBlock Theater, is well-known for the zany sense of humor in its games. Behemoth's newest creation, currently known as Game 4, dips its toes into the tactical-RPG genre. Of course, being a Behemoth game, you're not just waging war with swords and shields— you're doing battle with cupcakes.

With the newly announced cupcake army at your command, victory has never tasted so sweet. As with the human units under your leadership, the Cupcakes are highly customizable; you can sprinkle some frosting on top to give them a delectable vanilla look, or add a chunk of waffle cone to give them the extra crunch they need in battle. These different toppings all enhance your cupcakes' combat ability, so don't be fooled by their tasty looks— they're straight-up deadly.

Okay, so, maybe they're not so much deadly as they are a cute support class, but any good army needs healers, and what better way to recover HP than with a double dose of frosting?

Game 4 is still tightly under wraps- as evidenced by its placeholder title- but so far it's looking like an interesting take on tactical RPGs. Behemoth never fails to amuse with their wild, colorful, and unique-looking games, so when Game 4 does arrive, you can be sure it'll be worth a look.

Game 4 is expected for a PC and Xbox One release sometime this year.
