About This Game

STEEL WING: WEAVEBREAKER is a vertical bullet-hell shooter: half romance and daily life aboard your carrier, half three-lane bullet-hell combat happening all at once.

Decades ago, humanity sent a satellite into deep space. It received an answer.

In 2091, humanity handed its entire defense to a military network called Weave. Then Weave turned its guns on its makers. The sky is lost, the cities have fallen, and all that remains is one flying fortress and three pilots.

Three-Lane Joint Operations

In every story stage, three separate lanes may open up as the story unfolds. Switch lanes freely mid-battle, or stay on a single lane the whole way. How you play can make the fight easier — or a lot harder.

Story Campaign

From a storm-lashed coastline through a rail junction, a canyon waterfall, a cliffside factory and a rocket launch site. Every stage ends with a multi-phase boss. In the first campaign you chase down Weave; in the second you go behind enemy lines to rescue the trapped scientists and rebuild your carrier’s six departments.

Between Sorties: Life Aboard the Carrier

After every stage you return to the carrier. Talk with your crew, spend time with them away from the war, and answer as squadron leader Lu Zheng. Affection is never shown on screen, and every choice has a cost.

Base Building

Light up your carrier’s six departments one by one and research upgrades you can take into every sortie.

Tower Defense Nights

Weave’s fleet strikes the carrier at night. Place turrets against ever-escalating raids and fly out to join the defense yourself.

Roguelike Expeditions

Every door leads to a different world. Choose your route, pick upgrades from cards of four rarities, and face a different boss in every world.

Features

• A fully voiced bullet-hell shooter: Chinese, Japanese and English voice acting for every line, from the cockpit to the carrier.

• They talk to you mid-battle: three lanes in play at once, with your crew calling in and covering each other in real time.

• Half romance, half bullet hell: come back from each sortie to the hours you spend together. Every word you say quietly changes your relationship.

• Three lanes, your call: lanes open up as the story unfolds. Switch or stay — the same stage can play out completely differently.

• Hardcore bosses: mid-bosses fire fast aimed shots, stage bosses fill the screen. When the finisher comes, only the safe circle keeps you alive.

• Three pilots, nine weapons: normal shot, charge attack and hidden firepower — a full charge gives you the chance to turn a boss fight around.

• More than sorties: base building, tower defense, roguelike expeditions — and a round of mahjong with your crew.

• For everyone who grew up with arcades, the Sega Saturn and the original PlayStation.

• Interface in English, Japanese, Simplified Chinese and Traditional Chinese. Full controller support; keyboard also supported.
