Anthropomorphic hack-and-slash action game Verminsteel announced for PC
From the studio behind SkateBIRD.
SkateBIRD developer Glass Bottom Games has announced Verminsteel, a anthropomorphic hack-and-slash action game where a corvid faces off against massive hordes of enemies. It will launch for PC via Steam in 2027.
“Neighbors coming together to defend the community is the founding principle driving Crow and their friends forward throughout their quest, and is a principle we as humans must remember as well,” said Glass Bottom Games founder Megan Fox in a press release. “We hope Verminsteel in some small way inspires others to seek out their community and find where they can help, or even organize efforts themselves if need be.”
Here is an overview of the game, via Glass Bottom Games:

Push back the fascists, go toe to toe with their powerful leaders, and kick the wicked forces of the Verminsteel back under the rock they crawled from! For Fragaria!
Defend the helpless in cinematic battles across the Fragarian countryside, swinging your broadswords through killer combos to best hostile rats, pigs, hawks, stoats, and more.
