Metal Eden Launches on PC, PS5 and Xbox With High-Speed Parkour Gunplay

Early reviews cite its kinetic combat and core‑ripping hook as standout strengths despite a short campaign and occasional performance dips.

Overview

  • Reikon Games’ cyberpunk FPS is available now on Steam, PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S following its early September release.
  • Combat centers on rapid, vertical movement with wall‑runs, dashes, grapples, double jumps and glides across multi‑tiered arenas.
  • A signature core‑ripping mechanic lets players tear out enemy cores to throw as explosives or absorb for health and temporary power.
  • The story sends Hyper Unit ASKA from the orbital city Moebius toward the hostile world of Vulcan to recover digitized human consciousnesses and confront corrupted Engineers.
  • Critics praise the fluid gunplay, mobility and upgrade options, while noting an uneven, sometimes incoherent narrative and frame‑rate stutters alongside a relatively brief runtime.
