Legendary game designer Yu Suzuki's latest game was shown off during last night's Game Awards, and is coming to smartphones (via Netflix) in 2025.
No gameplay of Steel Paws was shown off, but we do know that it will see the player "embark on a dynamic action adventure" as a female protagonist aided by her selection of "Buddy Robots" to "conquer a mysterious Tower that reappears every century."
With games like OutRun, Space Harrier, Virtua Fighter and Shenmue to his name, Yu Suzuki's career has seen him straddle many genres, including racing, action, RPG and more – so it's anyone's guess as to what Steel Paws will look like from a gameplay perspective.
The only thing we can be sure of right now is that you'll need a Netflix subscription to play it.

"The only thing we can be sure of right now is that you'll need a Netflix subscription to play it."
This is an absolute disqualifier for me.
...and I have a Netflix subscription 😂
I await the Inin console port
A mobile game? Boooooooooooo
The trailer looks good, like pokemon and megaman, and if it need netflix subs it means no mtx (like with other netflix mobile games), which is good 😃
@-wc- No, it's actually good, netflix games are like apple arcade, it's pure games with no micro-transaction, most of it are a port of console indie games.
They got tmnt shredder revenge, into the breach, shovel knight pocket dungeon, world of goo, hades 1, death door, etc. You should check on your netflix games, I'm surprised when I first found out too 😃
@Right_Said_Brett If it's on netflix games, it means it's a indie console games with no mtx. And it should be ported to console soon I hope.
@wiiware very good point about probably no IAP nonsense. That's the bane of mobile games for me.
since i have a netflix sub...ill give it a look, but i'll admit, i'd much rather throw money at a port as opposed to tapping a phone screen any day of the week (definitely see the difference with the port of air twister)
I’m pleasantly surprised by Netflix games. I wasn’t expecting a lot more than mahjong and minesweeper, but I got to play Hades for “free” and there’s a bunch of games that I had been thinking of trying out on a console, like Oxenfree and Immortality. It’s great to have them as a bonus to the content I’m actually subscribing for. I’m definitely looking forward to this one.
“Mobile gaming” isn’t what it was even a few years ago and most people’s tablets and phones are plenty capable of running modern games to a degree. You can cast them to your tv and use a decent Bluetooth controller, so really what’s the difference?
RPG maybe? Just going by what the synopsis says. 🤔
