Yu Suzuki Unveils New Android Game: Steel Paws

Steel Paws, an exciting new action RPG exclusively for Android and available to Netflix subscribers, is the latest creation from the legendary Yu Suzuki, known for his work on Virtua Fighter and Shenmue. In this game, you take control of a purple-haired warrior clad in a mechanical suit, tasked with climbing a colossal tower alongside an army of combat-ready robot cats.

What’s the Story?

In Steel Paws, you embody a warrior drawn to an ancient tower that emerges from the earth, causing shockwaves across the world. Intrigued by a floating stone adorned with mysterious symbols, you enter the tower only to find your robotic feline companions immediately captured. An eerie, disembodied voice challenges you to fight your way to the top of the tower to rescue your friends. As you ascend, you'll battle waves of mechanical adversaries and unravel the secrets hidden within the tower's walls.

Steel Paws Is a Sci-Fi Fantasy

Steel Paws blends sci-fi with fantasy, offering a dynamic combat system that rewards players for timing their attacks and utilizing special moves strategically. Your robotic cat companions, known as Buddy Robots, not only assist in battle but also add a unique flair with their powerful meows during attacks. The game features checkpoints within each stage, allowing you to restart from these points if you're defeated, and you can adjust the difficulty to match your skill level.

Adding depth to the gameplay, Steel Paws incorporates roguelike elements, ensuring that each replay of a stage feels fresh with changes in enemy placement, resources, and map layouts. The game's environments are varied, presenting unique challenges such as shifting sands or slippery ice, keeping the combat engaging and unpredictable.

At its heart, Steel Paws is all about fast-paced melee combat. As a Netflix subscriber, you can dive into this thrilling experience on the Google Play Store.
