Steelrising asks how you would defeat a corrupt king with its newest trailer

Nacon and developer Spiders have revealed their next game together, Steelrising, a new take on the French Revolution, where in 1789, in an alternate Paris, a robot army has been deployed upon the King's orders, check out the teaser below.

1789 is the year of the Storming of the Bastille and the start of the monarchy's downfall. Steelrising depicts an alternative version of history: what if King Louis XVI, who loved clockmaking, had built an army of robots capable of quelling the insurrection? Powerful and cruel, this army spares no one and violently punishes rebels. Paris is burning and bleeding. Men, women and children are being systematically massacred.

In this terrifying chaos, you play as Aegis, an outstanding automaton and bodyguard of Marie-Antoinette. Appointed by the Queen, Aegis will have to navigate through a Paris crawling with machines. Each fight with these mechanical enemies is a challenge where the player's skills are subjected to a tremendous ordeal. Such is the price to pay for those who want to change the course of history.

There isn’t a set release date for the game yet, outside of 2022, but when it does release it will come to PC and consoles, also no specifics on which consoles.
