Starting today, you can dive into the sci-fi FPS action of Metal Eden with our brand-new demo available for PC, Xbox Series X|S, and PlayStation 5—grab it on your platform of choice. We can't wait to see you experience the adrenaline rush we have in store for you while you navigate the city-planet of Moebius as it orbits the planet Vulcan. During the demo, you'll jump into Mission 0 and Mission 1 and have a chance to experiment with some of the weapons that will help you cause havoc and uncover the truth of Moebius—master these upgrades, and no foe will be able to stop you. But first a reminder of why you fight…

For humanity to survive space travel and expand across the galaxy, the Engineers invented Cores. This system can store human data by preserving a digital record of a human psyche, rebuilding it upon reaching its destination. That was the plan, however something went wrong. An erosion bomb was released by the Engineers, threatening all cores on Moebius.




You play as Aska, and your mission is to save humanity from the Engineers who have them trapped within the hive at the center of Moebius. You'll have an arsenal of powerful weapons that you can equip to deal with any situation you encounter throughout your missions that you'll be able to upgrade, modify, and customize to your needs.


Here are the weapons you'll use in the demo:
  • Hertz AP: The Hertz auto pistol is your default weapon that carries with it the advantage of unlimited ammunition. However, be careful not to be too trigger-happy—it will overheat, leaving you vulnerable waiting for its lengthy cool-down.
  • U9 Supra: The first weapon you will find is a versatile firearm that shoots heavy single-fire bullets, with a precise aim that can deal devastating damage to your enemies.
  • TAS-9: During the demo, you will find the TAS-9, which is a shotgun and an important weapon for close-quarters combat against larger foes. Swapping to the shotgun at key moments can give you the edge you need to survive.

Each weapon comes with unique mods that completely transform how you play and eliminate enemies. And this is just the beginning; you'll discover more weapons as you explore the full version of Metal Eden, mastering each one and customizing its upgrades to suit your playstyle and strategy.

Here are some additional weapons available in the full game.
  • Zenit SMG: The Zenit SMG is great against unarmored enemies, dealing high damage and a great alternative to the Hertz AP.
  • Shark SAR: If you prefer dealing with enemies from afar, you can upgrade the Shark SAR by attaching a sniper scope to the weapon. This'll give it more versatility for mid-range to long-range combat.

Play the free demo today to get a handle on the adrenaline rush of Metal Eden. You'll be primed for full release on May 6, 2025, for PC, Xbox Series X|S and PlayStation 5! Wish list it today!
