In an alternate 1789 Paris, King Louis XVI uses an army of automatons to crush the French Revolution. You play Aegis, a mechanical bodyguard built by the engineer Vaucanson for the queen, and fight through the city to change the course of history. Combat is demanding: you chain dodges, parries and jumps with strong attacks against mechanical soldiers, and the giant machine bosses call for patience.
Aegis can be developed toward different playstyles as you upgrade abilities. Steelrising is single-player with full controller support, and it suits fans of challenging action RPGs who like a historical twist.
