History
Aggro Crab was founded by Nick Kaman and Caelan Pollock in 2019. [2] On September 24, 2020, the first game of Aggro Crab, a beat-em-up roguelike named Going Under was released. [3] The project received generally good reviews form critics. [4]
Announced in 2022, Aggro Crab's second game, Another Crab's Treasure was released on April 25, 2024. Developers stated that they wanted to make the game look as little as possible like other games of the Soulslike genre through a more colorful, more humorous approach. [5] Despite Another Crab's Treasure was also received well, it did not satisfy the developers' expectations, given the time and resources spent on development. [6]
As a result, Aggro Crab decided to repeat the success of their first game, announcing Going Under 2 in 2025. The players were excited to see the new part of the project. But in June 2025 differences in creative vision caused the new project to lose its funding, and soon time after, to be fully cancelled. Despite the result was described as a "bummer" by journalists, [6] Aggro Crab decided to continue, and on June 17, 2025, in cooperation with indie-studio Landfall a new cooperative multiplayer climbing game was published, called Peak. The game was initially developed by two studios in a month-long game jam in Seoul, similar to the development of Landfall's Content Warning the year prior. [7] Peak saw huge success and was described by some as "best in its class", selling over 100,000 copies in first 24 hours. [8] [9]
On October 2, Aggro Crab announced their next game - Crashout Crew, described as a wild co-op adventure, it is expected to be released in demo version on October 13. [10]
