Steel Empire Returns Soon!

Stuttgart, Germany - 29. September 2025 - Only 10 days remain until the release of the highly acclaimed The Legend of Steel Empire! Fans worldwide will finally be able to experience the iconic shoot'em up, coming digitally to the PlayStation platform on October 9, 2025, fully playable on PS4 and PS5.

Previously released on Nintendo Switch, where the game received strong reviews and a solid 80/100 score from respected outlets such as Nintendo Life, Hey Poor Player, and Forbes, the title now makes its long-awaited debut on PlayStation.

Known as Empire of Steel in Europe and Koutetsu Teikoku (鋼鉄帝国) in Japan, the original Steel Empire first launched in 1992 on the Sega Mega Drive. Recognized for its distinctive diesel-punk aesthetic, combining elements of steampunk and late-19th-century industrial design, setting it apart from other shoot 'em-up games. Later released on the Game Boy Advance and remade for modern platforms, the legendary game continues to build on its legacy today.

In The Legend of Steel Empire, players choose between the Striker Airplane or the mighty Zeppelin, equipped with an aerial mine launcher, to battle across seven complex stages filled with colossal battleships, armored locomotives, and invincible floating fortresses.
