Steel Paws, the upcoming Netflix Games exclusive from Yu Suzuki, is now open for pre-registration. Prepare to ascend a tower filled with fierce obstacles and robotic enemies in this thrilling third-person beat 'em up. Upgrade your gear and your mecha-animal Buddies as you explore unique levels.

During The Game Awards, amidst the flurry of AAA announcements, a captivating animated trailer for Yu Suzuki's new title, Steel Paws, caught many eyes. This exciting game is now available for pre-registration and will be an exclusive title on Netflix Games!

As expected from the creator of Virtua Fighter and Shenmue, Steel Paws is a third-person beat 'em up where players climb a mysterious tower, battling robotic enemies alongside their mechanical animal companions. Uncover the secrets hidden within this tower, which only appears once a century.

Steel Paws features diverse environments throughout the tower's ascent, offering opportunities to upgrade your mecha-animal Buddies and gear. With slight randomization in each level, every playthrough promises a fresh challenge.
