Los Pingheros Brings Penguin-Powered Chaos to Multiplayer Brawling

Get ready for some beak-smashing action—Los Pingheros is sliding onto Steam on February 7, 2025. Developed by French studio Hectiq, this multiplayer brawler promises a wild, unpredictable experience where penguins square off in frantic battles. And with Steam Co-Op Fest right around the corner, there’s no better time to throw down with friends.

A Brawler Like No Other

At its core, Los Pingheros is all about fast-paced, physics-driven combat. Players take control of feisty penguins and battle each other in chaotic arenas, using an array of wacky moves to smack, toss, and outmaneuver opponents. Whether you’re swinging punches or flopping around in desperate attempts to stay in the fight, every match is packed with hilarious moments.

From slippery surfaces to unpredictable stage hazards, no two rounds play out the same. The game’s physics-based mechanics mean that controls feel intentionally clumsy yet rewarding—mastering movement and attack timing is key to overwhelming your foes.

Multiplayer Madness

Los Pingheros supports both online and local multiplayer, making it a perfect party game whether you’re battling friends on the couch or squaring off with players worldwide. Expect chaotic free-for-alls, hilarious upsets, and plenty of smack talk as you fight to prove you’re the toughest penguin in the flock.

If you prefer teaming up, there are cooperative modes as well, giving players a chance to tackle challenges together. Hectiq is also pushing Steam Co-Op Fest participation, so expect plenty of opportunities to jump in and test Los Pingheros with others during the event.

A Unique Art Direction

Visually, Los Pingheros takes a colorful and exaggerated approach, packed with energetic animations and expressive penguin fighters. The game embraces its ridiculous premise with over-the-top effects and a cartoonish feel that matches its chaotic gameplay.

Even the arenas are designed to keep fights unpredictable, featuring everything from ice-covered floors to dangerous environmental traps. Staying on your feet is half the battle—literally.

When and Where to Play

The wait won’t be long—Los Pingheros launches on February 7, 2025. Players can add it to their Steam wishlist now to stay updated on its release and any special events tied to Steam Co-Op Fest.
