Metal Eden is an Action first person shooter game developed by ‘Reikon games‘ and published by ‘Deep Silver‘. Metal Eden is said to be coming out the 2nd of September 2025 on Xbox Series X/S, PC and PS5. X35 Earthwalker truly enjoys a good sci-fi. Metal Eden is truly going futuristic with the action here. Let’s take a look.
Metal Eden is clearly set in a futuristic world where so much is happening. Metal Eden takes place in a city called Moebius. This city use to be a great place for humanity. A home but it has changed. Described as a trap. Who’s to blame… the robots off course! Well the Engineers run the city. You are Hyper unit Aska. An advanced battle android. There’s quite a bit going on in this cybernetic robot filled, sci-fi world as there’s more than just Moebius. As there’s also the Hive tower, Vulcan (world below) and even project Eden. After all, why are they focusing on the human’s cores?
As Hyper unit aska, your purpose is to protect. Your greatest strength is apparently recon missions. You have your own core, a phantom core. Definitely a mobile fighter as you can run along walls, grapple around and off course dash. Even use a jetpack and gravity hooks. All this is needed for sure. For the IDC (Internal Defence Corps) is in your way. Just blast through them or preferably out parkour and manoeuvre them. You even have the means to transform into the Armoured ramball which gives you the means to straight up take these foes on.
So simply put, you’re a Hyper unit, specifically ask, handling business in moebius, fighting through the IDC, extracting human cores and looking for the engineers. Got that? Good. Right of the wall we definitely like the environment. The whole setting instantly shouts futuristic and tells you how futuristic we are talking about. The robot enemies of the IDC have some cool and interesting designs. Especially the bigger ones. Drones make sense and you just know their lasers are annoying. We hope that Metal Eden does show through the action that your mobility is the best approach here.
We checked out some Metal Eden gameplay and it’s what we expected. We definitely like how good this game looks visually. The graphics are excellent and the effects on certain attacks and explosions are pleasant to look at. Work has clearly gone into this game. It looks very different too. Off the top of your head, I challenge you to name a game similar. The action is real. The mobility is effective but we hope the amount of freedom is high enough, especially with grappling and the jet pack. If we are a hyper unit then make it feel and look like it. Fun factor is a top priority. Weapons are looking epic with then effects, hit scan speed single fire weapon, lightning arc tracking and even status or elemental inflicting blaster. Good to see.
Overall Metal Eden looks like an epic game of good fun. Even the trailers show how much they are putting into it. We want to see these cool games do well. Now concerning the story we hope that there’s real substance here and they don’t take the typical sci-fi approach. We got robots and a home for humans that got ruined basically and core stealing but will the engineers actually be interesting or predictable? We will have to see. Weapon concern is real here. Big sci-fi future means creative room is big. They look cool but what about the quantity of weapons. There’s a lot to look out for and look forward too. The developers ‘Reikon games’ have done an excellent job so far. We at X35 Earthwalker are keeping an eye out for this game. Metal Eden may have hyper units but they are all simple toys in the eyes of… the ‘Earth Walk!’
