SWAPMEAT Enters Early Access on October 21; Demo Now Available
One More Game’s upcoming co-op action roguelite shooter, SWAPMEAT, has an early access release date. We had a chance to go hands-on with it a few weeks back, and let’s just say this is one meaty roguelite action game you don’t want to miss out on.
But if you don’t believe us, there’s some good news for you: a demo is also now available as part of Steam Next Fest.
Play SWAPMEAT Ahead of Its Early Access Release
A demo is now live on Steam as part of the Steam Next Fest event, and will be available until October 21, 2025. The game will go into early access the following day.
About SWAPMEAT (via Steam)
Swap on the Fly
Rip, swap, and mutate mid-combat. Every limb and extremity you graft changes your strategy instantly. Rapid adaptation isn’t optional — it’s a matter of survival. There are over 3,000 meat combinations available to players. Every part you graft changes your strategy instantly.
Adaptation isn’t optional — it’s a matter of survival. Equip Squat Daddy legs to jump and butt-slam enemies, or an Octo Swirl head that shoots in all directions, or a Stellar Chef torso that grants barrier shields to your squad.
Fast, Relentless Combat
While roguelites like Risk of Rain 2 and co-op shooters like Helldivers 2 inspired our developers, the speed of core combat harks back to some of our favorite games, such as Quake 3, Serious Sam, and Overwatch. SWAPMEAT forces improvisation in ways we haven’t seen in traditional roguelites — you work with what drops and learn to thrive in unpredictability, while under constant siege by alien weirdos.
Waves of screwball enemies never stop coming. You dodge, shoot, and swap your way through escalating chaos while racing against time to complete objectives and bring back vital Meat Cores for Carl’s ongoing Smart Meat™ experimentations.
Built for Co-Op (1–4 Players)
Solo or squad, SWAPMEAT’s got something for everyone. Rip through the galaxy alone, or summon your bravest buddies to face the chaos together. With dynamically scaling difficulty, the game gets harder when players join and easier when they leave.
Roguelite Replayability
Each mission throws new enemies, random events, and unexpected part combinations at you. No two runs are ever the same. Every death teaches you something new.
Permanent Upgrades Between Runs
Bring your research back to HQ and cash it in for weapon unlocks, new perks, and company-approved improvements.
Hostile Alien Worlds
Explore a series of ever-stranger worlds, from an urban speedway thick with hungry mutant speedsters to a planetary cookout overrun by hostile aliens. Battle across bizarre, vivid landscapes strewn with the ruins of galactic capitalism.
SWAPMEAT launches in early access on Steam for PC and macOS on October 21, 2025.
