Prepare for a thrilling new tactical stealth RPG, Guns Undarkness, spearheaded by the renowned composer of the Persona series and Metaphor: ReFantazio, Shoji Meguro! A free Steam demo awaits.
Get ready to experience Guns Undarkness' free demo during the upcoming Steam Next Fest! This exciting project brings together a dream team: Shoji Meguro (music), Ilya Kuvshinov (character art, known for Ghost in the Shell), and Lotus Juice (rapper, prominent in Persona 3).
Meguro, a veteran composer at Atlus since 1995 (with credits on Shin Megami Tensei and Persona series), transitioned to indie development in 2021 while continuing his work with Atlus. Guns Undarkness, a sci-fi stealth action JRPG published by Kodansha Game Creators Lab, marks a significant step in his indie career.
Initially revealed at Indie Live Expo Winter 2021 and successfully funded via Kickstarter in 2022 (reaching all stretch goals), Guns Undarkness will release its demo on February 24th, 2025, during Steam Next Fest, with early access planned for later in the year.
Blending the strategic depth of Metal Gear Solid with the character-driven narratives of Persona, Guns Undarkness plunges you into a 2045 dystopia teetering on the brink of collapse. As a member of a private military company, you’ll embark on perilous missions, forge alliances, and unravel the world's secrets to save humanity.
Gameplay seamlessly integrates stealth and turn-based combat. Utilize the environment to your advantage during stealth sections, gaining a crucial edge in subsequent turn-based battles. Command your squad, strategically deploying firearms to overcome challenging encounters.
The demo offers approximately 20 minutes of gameplay, covering tutorials on controls, the battle system, weapons, and early-game strategies. Expect around 10 hours of playtime in the Early Access release slated for Spring 2025 on PC. A precise release date is yet to be announced.
