Independent studio eBrain has unveiled a new cyberpunk action trailer for Loopmancer, showcasing the walker gameplay and confirming the game’s release window. The teaser hints at a concrete launch date, building anticipation among fans who follow cutting-edge action titles.
The narrative unfolds in 2046 within Dragon City, a metropolis defined by neon-lit streets and advanced human-machine interfaces. In this world, brain-computer interfaces, bionic prosthetics, and nanobiotechnology are commonplace, yet the wealth gap has widened sharply, creating a stark contrast between rich and poor. The setting serves as a vivid backdrop for a game that explores both high-tech life and its social consequences.
The central protagonist is Xiang Zixu, a private detective who investigates the disappearance of a renowned journalist. After a fatal confrontation, he wakes up back in his bedroom with full memory of the events, forcing him to press forward and complete the mission by any means necessary. This premise drives a blend of mystery and action as the player follows Zixu through a dangerous, layered cityscape.
Loopmancer promises enhanced abilities, multiple endings, and a robust arsenal consisting of 100 weapons. Players will encounter more than 30 enemy archetypes, including gangsters, mercenaries, mutants, and various bionics, each with distinct behaviors. The game also incorporates roguelike elements, meaning that death leads to a fresh start, with the hero reawakening in his bed to begin anew, retaining memories to influence subsequent runs.
The trailer indicates a release in mid-July, with market listings noting July 13 or July 14 depending on the source. In the meantime, players can try a newly released demo to experience the core mechanics and atmosphere before the full launch. Enthusiasts can view all available screenshots of Loopmancer to gauge its visual style and world-building.
This release has drawn attention for its ambitious scope and its willingness to fuse cyberpunk storytelling with roguelike replayability. The game’s blend of a dense, futuristic setting and rapid, action-packed combat offers a compelling option for fans of neon-drenched shooters and narrative-driven adventures alike.
