Game Informer offered a six-minute showcase of Steelrising, a role-playing action game steeped in steampunk aesthetics. The clip gives viewers a broad tour of the game world, the combat system, the map layout, and a variety of mechanics. Opponents and a mid-boss fight are demonstrated, painting a picture of the kind of encounters players will face as they progress.
Set in a grim version of Paris during the upheaval of 1789, Steelrising imagines a city under the grip of a robotic army marching out from the crown. Players step into the role of Aegis, an engineered hero carved from steel and ingenuity, whose mission is to dismantle the royal mechanized threat and alter the course of history. The premise positions players at the intersection of rebellion, invention, and survival as they navigate barricades, soot-filled streets, and towering machines that loom over every corner of the city.
Although the exact release window shifts with development, the project has been positioned as a multi-platform title intended for PC and current-generation consoles, aiming to bring its distinctive combat feel and atmospheric worldbuilding to a broad audience.
Earlier communications have also touched on other projects with a similar pedigree—stories that blend dark fantasy, action role-playing mechanics, and a moody, atmospheric world. These titles emphasize tense combat, lore-rich settings, and the thrill of facing formidable enemies in environments that feel alive and dangerous.
Note: The information above reflects a snapshot of what was shared through a recent preview and developer conversations as the game moved toward completion. For ongoing updates, audiences should look to official channels and later, post-release reports that summarize how Steelrising is evolving after launch.
