IGN’s Alessandro Fillari turns up the heat and brings down cyperpunk inspired enemies with their preview of the brand new prologue for KIBORG: Arena, the free prologue to the fast-paced action rogue-lite with brutal, cybernetic combat from Sobaka Studio, available now on PC via Steam, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X|S!

“Kiborg: Arena and its ladder-style progression are a prologue to the main game, which features a more robust roguelite campaign across different locales. The Arena not only does a great job of establishing the mood of this hyper-violent grim world, but also chucked me into the deep end to get me accustomed to the intriguing blend of beat-em-up action and randomized roguelite-style upgrades. Along with an extended tutorial, which helped me get into the flow and learn the basics of its brawler-style combat, you also have an AI companion who will offer Morgan tips on how best to move up the ladder of the Arena.”

“Some of my favorite moments came from diving into a crowd of enemies and unleashing a flurry of strikes that were amplified by chained lightning, homing razor blades, and even cyborg legs that left a streak of flames on the ground. One of the great thrills of a roguelite is seeing your modest hero evolve into a death-dealing warrior, and Kiborg’s building transformation into a super soldier with every round was so exciting to see unfold.”
