What to expect from Steel Seed?

Steel Seed is a gripping action-adventure game from the visionary team behind the critically acclaimed Close to the Sun set in a dark sci-fi world where humanity stands on the brink of extinction. Join protagonist Zoe and her flying drone companion, KOBY, as they investigate the depths of a hostile underground facility in search of answers and the key to mankind’s survival.

Steel Seed isn’t just about survival — it’s about exploring the fine line between human and machine, trust and control, and resilience and despair. With a story revised and edited by BAFTA-winning writer Martin Korda, the game delivers a deep and compelling narrative experience.
