'SteamDolls' Resurfaces, Playable PC Demo Coming Soon - Screens & Trailer

Steamdolls: Order of Chaos is a steampunk inspired metroidvania game with a grimy touch of brutality.

Prepare to create some chaos in the oppressive steampunk world of SteamDolls. In the mist of time, society is eaten by industry, and its citizens  oppressed by an authoritarian and omniscient cult. 

Inspired by games like Castlevania and Hollow knight. Nourished by the fury of Dead Cells and the gloom of Bloodborne. Lose yourself in a labyrinthine city, full of secrets and madness.

“When fossil fuels were depleted, it was time for a change. But it never came. The discovery of a new superconductive material made sure the cycle never broke.”

This is the way their world ends, not with a bang but a whisper.

Society crumbled over time, falling into a state of disarray. Innovation became stagnation. Progression to regression. Not future, nor past. An industrial era haunted by the ghost of what came before. Mankind, their mentality ever worsening as idle habits fed into the City. Unified and tortuous it swallowed what remained of their humanity. Stealing away their free will, their determination. Crushing their souls until nothing remained. Madness.

Desperate for an alternative way to regain the glory of Old, Scientists searched for a remedy.

Until they found something. Something that should have been left alone.

Mindless citizens, the needed catalyst. Transforming them. Adapting their flesh. Mere dolls. Cruel monsters.

Discover the truth of these broken lives in the lore of Steamdolls: Order of Chaos.

Taking the role of The Whisper (David Hayter), you'll have to balance stealth and brutality to make your goals into reality. Assassinate your enemies and perform devastating finishers, or lurk in the shadows and slip between the cracks. Experience the narrative of the Steamdolls world, and delve into not only the story of this dying world but also the secrets found in its shadowsHack into terminals and experience the memories of the past, and the ghosts that lurk in the remnants of the modern world.


SteamDolls: Order Of Chaos has debuted a brand new teaser, announcing that a brand new demo is coming soon.

The demo will feature the entire "prologue" of the game.

The teaser, featuring voice work from the Metal Gear Solid franchise (no relation to studio), including David HayterChristopher Randolph, and Jennifer Hale

Originally conceived in 2019 based on a comic book from the development studio and then Kickstarted soon after, SteamDolls has been a passion project of its director. A small concept demo was originally launched at the time of original conception, which acted as a small preview of the original title. Since then, the game has changed significantly, undergoing a significant visual upgrade as well as an overhaul of gameplay. The original concept demo, which acted as a vertical slice presentation of the game's concept, is planned to be launched out of Early Access with this updated demo replacing such. An extended demo is expected to separately go live closer to the game's launch date, of which more details will be available soon.

Features:

  • Novel stealth-lite gameplay mixed with platforming and brutal action
  • Gruesome finishers and combat
  • Use your hacking skills to experience the memories of the world
  • Beautiful comic book-inspired 2D meets 3D aesthetics
  • vast world to explore, filled with secrets
  • AAA voice cast, including David Hayter (Solid Snake) as the voice of The Whisper, as well as Christopher Randolph and Jennifer Hale.
  • Hand-drawn Cutscenes for the narrative parts mixed with 3D cinematic inserts

Steamdolls: Order of Chaos is scheduled for PC (Steam).
