Cyberpunk style, interior view of the Deadlink game, but not from the developers of CD Projekt RED… but from another Polish team.

 

Super.com announced Gruby Entertainment‘s game, with developers who formerly worked on Outriders and Giant Machines. The Steam overview explains everything for us: “Deadlink is a cyberpunk FPS with roguelite elements. You are the first operative to become part of the experimental Deadlink protocol. Control an autonomous combat shell, fighting through cramped slums, twisted labs, grimy warehouses and sleek offices on a mission to subvert the plans of the most powerful corporations in the world. Wield an arsenal of weapons and upgrade both your skills and your tech. Leave a mark in the destructible environment and the corporate margins alike.

You are the Corporate Security Agency’s greatest weapon, and the reason corporations and their shady deals are anything but secure. With the team at HQ at your back, you are launched into the fray where a plausibly deniable military operation solves things at a fraction of a cost of a hopeless court case. You’ll know about every randomized run in the game that you will be outnumbered. Get ready to think on your feet as you dash, jump and use the environment to your advantage. You won’t be standing still even for a second.

Powerful weapon load-outs are put in the hands of your combat shell. Try them all as you blaze your path of destruction. Precision, debilitation or good old obscene destruction – find your favourite toolkit for the job. Your enemies have no shortage of bullets and bodies to throw your way. Neither do you. You may lose a shell, but your next one will be even stronger. Come back to each run with amped-up skills and meaner chrome!” the Steam page reads.
