Take down enemies and use their bodies as your own in the futuristic beat ’em up OverRider.

In OverRider, players are put in the shoes of Ryuji, a man who dies in a lab explosion and wakes up 200 years later in a synthetic body designed after his sister. Ryuji’s new goal is to find a way to resurrect his sister using the MOEREA cloning program.

OverRider is a hardcore cyberpunk beat ’em up, featuring incredibly difficult stages bathed in neon lights and futuristic architecture. The player unlocks new moves and skills the more they take over enemy’s bodies, gaining new enhancements through the game’s roguelike progression system.

OverRider is available on Microsoft Windows (through Steam’s Early Access).
