Solo indie developer Sloth Gloss Games has announced Steel Century Groove, a new rhythm-RPG where you pilot mecha in dance battles.

Steel Century Groove is in development for Windows PC (via Steam) with a release set for sometime in 2025.

Here’s a rundown on the game, plus its reveal trailer:

Pilot mecha in rhythm-RPG dance battles. Assemble a squad of colossal dancers, challenge every rival you lock eyes with, compete for the championship trophy, and uncover the secrets of a world where everything moves to the drumbeat of steel feet.

Thousands of years ago, humanity built colossal war machines to stop the apocalypse. Now they just use them for dance battles.

Groove your way across a rich world, assemble the perfect mecha crew, and rise from humble beginnings to ultimate stardom.

Features:

• Challenge other pilots to intense dance-offs on a massive scale
• Groove to the awesome soundtrack or bring your own MP3s.
• Unlike other rhythm games, Steel Century Groove doesn’t demand a specific button press for each note. Instead, choose the best moves to defeat your opponent.
• Each mech has a unique set of moves with their own mechanics and resources. A simple starter mech builds and spends energy, while later mechs have you maintaining an army of drones or swapping between cards in a mini deck builder.
• Customize your character and explore a post-post-apocalyptic world from coast to coast.
• Dig into a rich story full of humor, charm, and heart. Thousands of years ago, humanity built these machines to stop the apocalypse. Now they just dance with them. But what does it mean to turn a weapon of war into a game?
• No accessories required. Built from the start for gamepad or mouse & keyboard.
