Publisher Playism and developer Alphawing have released a playable demo for Metal Bringer, their new roguelike action game.

The new demo is now available for PC via Steam and includes multiple game modes, though save data can’t be transferred to the full game.

Here’s a rundown on the new demo:

About the Demo

The Metal Bringer demo has been well received by visitors who tried it out at PAX West 2024 and Tokyo Game Show 2024, and now it’s finally come to Steam! The demo has two exclusive modes—”Newbie”, where you can play the beginning of the story, and “Extreme”, where you can try out a battle from midway through the game!

Both modes combined will let you experience the main game systems of Metal Bringer to give you a taste of the full game, so please check it out!

Newbie

Power up and customize your Labor with apps as you learn the basic game mechanics and play through the beginning of the story. Your Labor will start out weak, but keep growing stronger to defeat a boss within the time limit!

Extreme

Use Labor and Arms that have already been strengthened to a certain extent to take on mid-game battles. Choose whatever kind of Labor, weapon, and Arms you like to overpower the boss!

Extreme mode can be unlocked by defeating the boss in Newbie mode or by playing for a certain amount of time.

(Note: Demo save data cannot be carried over to the full game.)

Metal Bringer is set to launch sometime in 2025 for Windows PC (via Steam) and PlayStation 5.
