Greylock Studio have released a big free update for their fast-paced FPS, Severed Steel.
Severed Steel‘s new update adds the Rogue Steel mode. This roguelite-inspired mode tasks players with completing procedurally generated 10-mission campaigns. Between missions you will get to pick unique perk cards to upgrade your character and weapons. The Rogue Steel mode also features new enemies, weapons, and mutators.
You can find a rundown (via Steam) below:
Severed Steel is a single-player FPS featuring a fluid stunt system, destructible voxel environments, loads of bullet time, and a unique one-armed protagonist. It’s you, your trigger finger, and a steel-toed boot against a superstructure full of bad guys. Chain together wall runs, dives, flips, and slides to take every last enemy down.
Key Features

- Stylish Combat – Dodge bullets, leap off walls, slide kick, throw weapons – do whatever it takes to come out on top in intense and frenzied firefights.
- Fully Destructible Environment – Punch through thick concrete with .50 cal slugs, or make big holes in things with your arm cannon. Carve your own path through completely destructible levels.
