Severed Steel, a stylish first-person shooter from developer Digerati, is coming to PC on September 17. It will also come to PS5, Xbox Series X/S, and Nintendo Switch later this year.
Severed Steel has a lot of different inspirations from Mirror’s Edge to Black. But at the heart of the gameplay is the ability to wall run, dive, slide, flip, and bullet-time your way around a fully destructible environment while gunning down bad guys.
The game will come to PC on September 17 and, in addition to PS4 and Xbox One versions, Digerati has also announced that PS5, Xbox Series X/S, and Nintendo Switch will follow later this year.
You’ll play as Steel, a one-armed operative who is out to take down the mega-corporation EdenSys. Steel’s acrobatics and bullet-time abilities allow her to stylishly take down enemies, but there’s a catch. Steel cannot reload weapons, so if you find yourself out of ammo you have to find a replacement quick.
While reloading is one of the few things Steel can't do, the trailer shows off a good mix of Steels' other tools. Whether that's kicking through doors, wall-running between kills, or slowing down time to headshot bad guys, Severed Steel gives you plenty of ways to take down your enemies.
If you’re interested in checking gout Severed Steel early you can play a demo available on Steam which now has an additional campaign level and updates to the gameplay.
Severed Steel will be released first on PC before coming to PS4 and Xbox One at a later date. Check out IGN’s full Gamescom coverage for new trailers, announcements, and more.
