Twinworld Game Reviews

09 DECEMBER, 2021 – Severed Steel publisher Digerati has released a new trailer to showcase some of the new content that has been added to the stylish FPS since its launch on PC earlier in the year.

Two recent major updates from Severed Steel developer Greylock Studio have delivered a New Game + mode, two additional arm cannons (Gravity Gun and Impact Driver), level playlists in Firefight mode, enhanced explosion effects, and many other tweaks and improvements. In addition to the extra in-game content, new Steam Achievements, trading cards and community items have also been added since Severed Steel‘s release.

More content is planned for Q1 2022, and will include new and extended Campaign levels. There will also be further improvements to Severed Steel‘s level editor, which the community has already used to create some incredible original maps, as well as homages to genre classics Counter-Strike (Dust II) and Perfect Dark (Grid).

Severed Steel has been well received by reviewers, and currently has ratings of 76 and 80 on Metacritic and OpenCritic respectively. Steam overall user ratings are 93% positive, while the most recent user reviews are 96% positive, giving it an ‘Overwhelmingly Positive’ rating for the last 30 days.

“I’m thrilled with the response to Severed Steel’s launch. Having been a gamer my whole life it is a trip to be on the other side,“ says the game’s director and developer, Matt Larrabee. “The response from the community has been great, particularly the custom levels made through the editor. One level editor from the community has been brought onboard the dev team to help make a campaign extension, coming soon!”

Console owners will also get the chance to experience Severed Steel‘s intense, acrobatic gunplay action when it arrives on PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, and Nintendo Switch early next year.

It’s you, your trigger finger, and a steel-toed boot against a superstructure full of bad guys. Chain together wall runs, dives, flips, and slides to take every last enemy down.
