Liberated
Different Kind of Cyberpunk
Cyberpunk has a rich history of fiction about mass surveillance and control via technology... that's already here. The "high tech, low life" fiction of the 20th century is becoming the reality of the 21st.
So that snazzy outrun aesthetic that we associate with cyberpunk nowadays is certainly one way to do it and keep cyberpunk sci-fi — but it's not the only way to go!
In Liberated, we present you with a different kind of cyberpunk:
A noir cyberpunk.
A grounded cyberpunk.
A look out your window for pete's sake cyberpunk!
We wrote a few words about this vision in the clip below, check it out!

What is Liberated?
Well my friend, here is the Quick Pitch!
Liberated is...
- an action-adventure game inside a comic book
- a modern, noir, cyberpunk world
- an alarmingly current story about government control and revolution
- coming to PC in July
Liberated launched on Nintendo Switch earlier this month, and we just announced the PC edition featuring voice-overs, made-for-pc visual upgrades, and support for every kind of display imaginable.
Play our Demo
Try it out yourself, your feedback helps us build a better game!
Download and play the demo in the Steam Games Festival — a brief sample that avoids spoilers and shows off the action — it's an older build that does not yet feature voiceovers and most recent technical upgrades, but it should give you a solid idea of what to expect. We're really excited to have you try it.
Remember to Wishlist and Follow Liberated on Steam, and join us on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, or Gamejolt!
Cheers, have a great Festival, everyone!
