Soulslike in Revolutionary France with robots

Steelrising reimagines the French Revolution as a Soulslike action RPG where you play as Aegis, a mechanical automaton masterpiece created to serve Marie Antoinette. In an alternate 1789 Paris, King Louis XVI has deployed a clockwork army to crush the revolution, and only Aegis can stop the mechanical tyranny. Master a diverse arsenal of period-inspired melee and ranged weapons, upgrade your automaton with alchemical abilities, and explore a beautifully rendered 18th-century Paris. With its unique historical setting and satisfying combat, Steelrising offers a fresh take on the Soulslike genre.
