80’s stealth spoof UnMetal sneaks onto PC and consoles later this month

Versus Evil has announced that Unepic_Fran’s retro inspired, top down stealth action game UnMetal is coming to PlayStation, Xbox, Nintendo Switch and PC on 28th September 28th.

UnMetal combines 80’s movie and TV nostalgia with top down 2D pixel-art visuals, as it tasks the player with completing a covert mission, while trying to clear their name for a crime they didn’t commit.

Versus Evil said: “Players take on the role of Jesse Fox, a civilian inadvertently embroiled in an unplanned mission to prevent an attack on NATO. Shot down, captured and questioned, Fox needs a way out with all the cunning and guile he can muster.

“Players conduct their subterfuge to escape incarceration by combining and crafting various objects discovered in the game world, including toilet paper (unscented, unpatterned and single ply), circuit boards, rusty wire and even a guards eye patch and glass eye.

“Distraction, sabotage and combat will all come into play, and Fox will encounter a variety of adversaries including enemy soldiers, attack dogs, hungry rats and bigger more formidable heavily armed military hardware like tanks. 

“The ability to level up with new found skills improving attributes like strength and speed and completing various sub challenges in the game improve the chances of success though.”

A playable demo of UnMetal is out now on Steam, and players can also wishlist the PC version of the game here.

UnMetal is out on 28th September, on Switch, Xbox One, PS4, and PC (Wherever you get your games from). Its also playable via back compatibility on Series S/X and PS5.
