The Meat Invades...What Would YOU Do?!

With Iron Meat launching at the end of the month, how would you deal with such an invasion threat if it happened in real life?



Forget the mad scientist, forget why the Meat is invading the Earth.

The real question is how each person would react to such a sudden, dire situation! Would you hole yourself up in your house and wait out the storm of MEAT? Would you leave your home and try to find and join up with the Earth Counter Invasion Force (ECIF) in fighting the monsters? Would you rally with your neighborhood and organize a plan?–though, maybe you won’t even have time to do any planning!



Or would you go outside and wait for a monster to become the first item on your twisted menu of MEAT?! Or just…allow yourself to become infected and join the mindless horde?

We wanna know what would you do if the Meat invasion happened without any warning!

The Meat Invasion Begins in ONE MONTH!

[h3]Get ready to battle against the Meat on September 26th![/h3]

With just one month (well, technically it's one day LESS than a month) away from release, Iron Meat is ready to give players a truly modern retro experience--filled with familiar mechanics from classic run and gun titles, mixed together with contemporary features like unlockable skins, in-game achievements, a level-up system, and player character customization. Oh, and local 2-player couch co-op is here, too!



You'll face off against monstrous bosses in challenging, multi-phase fights, and you'll be able to pick up and upgrade multiple weapons along the way! Take the fight to the source of the Meat's invasion as you blast through 9 levels of bloody carnage.



And let your friends check your credentials with Iron Meat's player rank system that rewards you with a new skin every time you level up! Together with other skins locked behind certain achievements, you'll be able to earn over 30 different skins to customize your own player character!



And let's not forget about in-game achievements! Play through the game and witness your earned achievements grow in number. Sometimes it's GOOD to play the game in a way that isn't typical or normal!


Lastly, if you've got that sibling, friend, or roommate that wants to get in on all the gory action, have them join the fight with local 2-player couch co-op! To top it off, Player 2 will have access to the same skins Player 1 has unlocked, so be sure to go crazy with your inhuman combinations!...Or, you know, just use a base skin.


We're excited to be able to have Iron Meat available for everyone in just a month! Look forward to even more news as we get closer to Iron Meat's launch day!

Pick a Boss, Any Boss!

By now, you've likely seen plenty of mutated monsters running around in hordes of Meat creatures! Coming off the heels of our previous "What if?" post, which of these boss monsters would you choose as an ally?

[h3]1. The Entrail Blazer MK II - Tank Boss[/h3]
No doubt one of the mainstays of the game, the Entrail Blazer Mk II is a tank infested with Meat spores and tendrils galore! Did we mention its GAPING mouth hidden under its primary cannon? Equipped with dual cannons, a toxic bubble launcher, and a hungry appetite, you won't miss a beat at causing explosions and sheer mayhem if this boss joined forces with you!



[h3]2. The Carrionvoy - Train Boss[/h3]
Another familiar boss monster is featured here! The Carrionvoy, aka the Iron Serpent, makes for an interesting choice for a friendly monster pal. What it lacks in sheer firepower, it makes up for with its tough, serpentine body composed of a seemingly endless line of train cars! With an ability to summon a bunch of Blats with a bone-chilling roar, plasma blood embers that track enemies, and a gory vomit breath that can singe even the toughest armor, the Carrionvoy is certain to be a noteworthy choice for a potential boss companion!



[h3]3. The MI-24 - Helicopter Boss[/h3]
One of the "newest" additions to the featured boss lineup, the MI-24 helicopter boss is a high-flying crocodile-like menace that deploys gunfire, missiles, toxic bubbles, and Meat-infected humans down to any battlefield! Imagine flying over a city overrun with armies of Meat creatures, only to begin raining your plasma-energy-filled gunfire down upon them--mixed together with the full might of the MI-24 setting the Meaty grounds even more ablaze! Sounds like a match made with MEAT!



Check back here for even more updates as we get closer to Iron Meat's release day on September 26th later this year--both digital and physical!

Iron Meat will LAUNCH on September 26!

[h3]We’re excited to announce that Iron Meat will be launching here on Steam on Thursday, September 26th later this year!![/h3]

[h3]AND, for those interested, we will also be releasing a PHYSICAL EDITION of Iron Meat on the SAME DAY--distributed by Strictly Limited![/h3]



For so long we’ve been anticipating and planning when would be the best time to launch the game, and we’re proud to finally be able to tell you when you can get your hands on it! Physical Editions of the game will launch at the same time as the digital release on September 26th!



Iron Meat is a gore-ific run-and-gun shooter that pits you against the ravenous forces of the Meat–an all-consuming entity that desires nothing more than the assimilation of humankind. Taking on the role of a supersoldier under the Earth Counter Invasion Force (ECIF), you begin your counterattack against the monsters that seek to ravage the world!



Set in an alternate reality where humanity successfully developed technology and weaponry unlike what we know now, the game puts you on a mission to stop the invading Meat hordes and eliminate them at their source!



After discovering the hidden potential of the Meat, scientist Yuri Markov attempted to study the entity in his laboratory on the Moon. But after revealing its sentience, the Meat breaks out, assimilates Markov, and turns the Moon into its lunar fortress! Eager to devour all of humanity, the Meat–now using Markov’s body–descends upon Earth with its vast hordes of monsters and mutated victims!

So get ready to grab a rifle, grab a friend, and defend humanity from annihilation!



We hope you'll look forward to even more as we prepare for LAUNCH DAY on September 26th, and don't forget--physical editions of the game will be available, as well!!
