Underdogs

Rigg & King, two Mech Fighter brothers from London, are in trouble when a piece of cryptic data finds its way into King's brain. Threatened by the AI taking over his consciousness, they set out to New Brakka – The Last Free City. But this ain't the kind of place you just walk into. It's surrounded by The Jungle, and its dodgy streets are run by gangs, hustlers, and criminals. If they want to make it through before the AI Big Sys hacks into King's brain and flatlines him, they'll have to claw their way up the food chain in Mech Fighting Pits. And if there's one thing Rigg Serrano is good at – it's smashing $%@# up with his Mech.

Bash, crush, maul, and rip apart enemy bots and mechs – it's full-on metal-on-metal violence in this first-of-its-kind physics-based mech brawler. Explore a roguelike adventure in a cyberpunk city run by criminals and hustlers. Gear up with 130+ items and power tools to customize your mech, hire hackers and saboteurs, and claw your way up a ruthless food chain in a gritty adventure that'll kill you dead.

  • Roguelike VR mech brawler with brutal, physics-based, metal-on-metal combat.
  • Face a wide variety of enemies, from bots to piloted mechs, and find creative ways to tear them apart.
  • Roguelike gameplay with deep battle mechanics and replayability.
  • Hustle, steal, and scavenge for 100+ items to customize your mech.
  • Choose your over-the-top weapons, from wrecking balls to deadly arm attachments, or hack your opponents.
  • An immersive, rich, and gritty cyberpunk story full of shady characters and dubious opportunities.
  • Move your hands to control the mech arms in high-impact combat and use arm-based locomotion mechanics to intuitively manoeuvre your metal beast through the arena.
