Originally released through Steam Early Access in May of 2020, Curve Digital’s 4-player firefighter game, Embr is coming to consoles. The co-op adventure game will send you and your friends into the fire as you rescue civilians, salvage goods, and deliver food.

The cute multiplayer action game is currently set to arrive on the PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and Nintendo Switch this summer, letting players team up across all the platforms with full crossplay functionality. Based on what we’ve seen so far from the trailers—and based on the various gameplay videos shared on YouTube since the title released, Embr is a mash-up of different objectives like putting out fires, weaving through fields of lasers, and chucking helpless civilians out of buildings that are in various states of being destroyed.

You can check out the Steam Store page for more information, which reads:

While the game has been in Early Access since last year for PC players, it appears the full release is planned to arrive when the console editions do, which means Steam players can get involved right now if they want to help shape the final months of development leading up to the 1.0 version.
