Beyond A Steel Sky Launching On Switch In Q3 2021

Publisher Microids has announced the launch window for Revolution Software’s Beyond A Steel Sky on Switch and other consoles in Q3 2021.

Originally released last year for PC and Apple Arcade, Beyond A Steel Sky is a thrilling adventure game that brings players to the cyberpunk dystopia of Union City, solving puzzles and unravelling mysteries in search of a missing child.

You can check out the game’s launch trailer for Apple Arcade below, along with additional details provided by Microids:

Beyond a Steel Sky stands as a thrilling story of loyalty and redemption set in an eerie and terrifying world of AI-driven social controls. Set a decade after the events of the first game, Beyond a Steel Sky immerses players once again in the captivating Union City—a dystopian cyberpunk city full of mysterious, sinister secrets. With Dave Gibbons’s breathtaking comicbook art style, the game is a hugely ambitious adventure which redefines the genre by allowing the player to subvert the world, populated by AI-driven characters, with interesting solutions to puzzles emerging from their actions.

You are Robert Foster. A child has been abducted in a brutal attack. You have vowed to bring him home. The trail has led you to Union City, one of the last remaining mega-cities in a world ravaged by shattering wars, and political meltdown.

Union City is a utopia, its people loving life under the control of an altruistic AI: ever-attentive androids, designer living, piazzas and bars. What’s not to love? But this City has a dark underbelly…

Beyond a Steel Sky is a dramatic, humorous, cyberpunk thriller in which engaging puzzles drive a fast-paced narrative set in a dynamic game world that responds to—and is subverted by—the player’s actions.
