Reviews

“There are plenty of cyberpunk games which allow you to use hacking in combat, but few with such immediate, explosive consequences”
Rock Paper Shotgun

“It feels absolutely badass to use your hacking powers in varied violent ways, and I’m looking forward to causing a lot of damage with them. When I think of hacking in games I think of puzzle mini games, but Deadwire’s hacking focus is so much more than this”
Loot Level Chill

About This Game

DeadWire is a top-down tactical hacker-shooter game set in a neon-soaked dystopian city of the future. As the operator only known as ‘Wire’, make your way through the brutal streets of this crime-ridden metropolis, hack the environment, and take down the armed enemies out to stop you.

Chain Reaction Carnage - In DeadWire's cyberpunk world of dystopian hi-tech and omnipresent violent crime, Wire can use his Rewiring skills to hack and link enemies to seemingly harmless objects, turning the world into a chain-reaction sandbox of carnage and death.

DeadWire combines its unique rewiring gameplay mechanic with fast gunplay and power-ups, to take down enemies and reach your goal.

High-Octane 'Hacktion' - Wire's skills go beyond their leet hacking abilities, they're also deadly with an arsenal of weapons.

Side-objectives & Time Trials - Overcome missions in various creative ways to complete different side-objectives, and beat time trials to collect trophies along the way.

Epic Synthwave Soundtrack - Lose yourself in DeadWire's immersive cyberpunk soundscape that evokes a future world of dystopian technology and burgeoning rebellion.

Become the ultimate operator - Unravel DeadWire's tale of dark web deceit and treachery in a neon-soaked dystopian city.
