About Metal Unit

Metal Unit is a side-scrolling roguelite action platformer developed by JellySnow Studio and published by NEOWIZ. Full Steam release: 27 January 2021.

Earth is under siege: ancient beings rise from underground while alien machines descend from space. You play Joanna, a new soldier able to wear the powerful M-Unit suit, on a mission to stop the monsters and capture her sister, who has sided with the aliens. You dash past attacks, chain melee and ranged weapons into combos and choose between the planet surface, which moves the story forward, and dangerous dungeons with bigger rewards. When you die, equipped items turn into research points that unlock new weapons and skills for the next run, and key dialogue choices shape what happens to the cast.

Key Features

  • Combo combat – dash, then chain melee and ranged attacks.
  • Surface or dungeon – story progress or riskier rewards.
  • Roguelite research – gear turns into permanent unlocks on death.
  • Story choices – decisions in key dialogues matter.
  • Assist and Challenge modes – tune the difficulty either way.

PC Version and Compatibility

Minimum requirements: 64-bit Windows 7 or newer, Intel Core i5, 2 GB RAM, GeForce GTS 450 / Radeon HD 5750, DirectX 10, 500 MB storage. Full controller support. Available in English, German, French, Spanish, Russian, Japanese, Korean and Chinese (no Polish or Italian language version).

Global Activation & What You Receive

Why Buy This Game?

Metal Unit suits players who like fast pixel-art action with a roguelite loop, where every failed run still unlocks something new for the next attempt. The key is available at Urazon. Age rating: USK 6.

Related Games

If the dash-and-combo rhythm and permanent unlocks between deaths are what hook you, Dead Cells is the reference point for that loop, with shifting biomes and a huge weapon pool. Skul: The Hero Slayer keeps the side-on roguelite action but lets you swap skulls to change your whole moveset mid-run. For a darker, hand-crafted take on brutal 2D combat, Blasphemous 2 sends you through a gothic world full of towering bosses. And Hollow Knight trades runs for one vast interconnected map, rewarding the same precise dodging that keeps Joanna alive.
