Yu Suzuki Unveils New Android Game: Steel Paws

Steel Paws is a thrilling new action RPG available exclusively for Android users with a Netflix subscription. This game is the brainchild of Yu Suzuki, the renowned SEGA veteran behind classics like Virtua Fighter and Shenmue. In Steel Paws, players take on the role of a purple-haired warrior in a mechanical suit, teaming up with an army of battle-ready robot cats to ascend a colossal tower.

What’s the Story?

In Steel Paws, you embody a warrior drawn to an ancient tower that suddenly emerges from the earth, sending shockwaves across the world. The tower's allure stems from a floating stone covered in mysterious markings. Upon entering, the hero's robotic feline companions, known as Buddy Robots, are immediately captured. A sinister, unseen voice challenges the protagonist to fight her way to the top of the tower to rescue her furry friends. As you progress floor by floor, you'll battle an array of mechanical enemies and unravel the secrets hidden within the tower.

Steel Paws Is a Sci-Fi Fantasy

The gameplay in Steel Paws is centered around a fluid and engaging combo system, rewarding players for well-timed strikes and strategic use of special moves. Your robotic cat companions, who emit a powerful meow with each attack, play a crucial role in combat, launching team attacks that can send them hurtling into enemies like furry missiles.

To enhance the gaming experience, Steel Paws includes checkpoints midway through each stage, allowing players to resume from these points if they are defeated, rather than starting over. The difficulty can also be adjusted to suit individual preferences. Adding to the replay value, the game incorporates roguelike elements, meaning that every time you replay a stage, you'll encounter different enemy placements, resources, and map layouts. Environmental hazards such as shifting sands or slippery ice further diversify the challenges across different levels.

At its heart, Steel Paws is all about fast-paced melee combat. If you're a Netflix subscriber, you can dive into this action-packed adventure by downloading it from the Google Play Store.
