In Survivor Mercs, players take control of a randomised clone commander to lead a squad of mercenaries into battle against M.E.G.A. Corp's deadly robot horde. The goal? Survive long enough to extract with your loot, or risk it all for greater rewards. Every run helps players grow stronger, expand their bunker HQ, and unlock new mercs, upgrades, and abilities.

Survivor Mercs Key Features:

Play the Genetic Lottery! Clone a variety of Commanders, each with their individual quirks. Commanders are generated with three random traits, offering many unique combinations for each run.
Active Twin-Stick Gameplay Not your regular auto-shooter, but a more intense "skill-based" gameplay with an active dash ability and actively controlled weapons
Bosses Built to Break You Encounter unique mini-bosses and final bosses on every map, each with their own deadly mechanics, attack patterns, and personalities. Push your squad to adapt or perish.
Squad-Building Galore Assemble a squad of diverse mercenaries, each with their own abilities, weapons, and behavior. Explore individual skill trees and synergies to unleash devastation on your enemies.
Loot, loot… and more loot! Navigate procedurally generated maps, and capture objectives to call in reinforcements, collect valuable loot, or find epic powerups. But beware, the clock is ticking. Each minute wasted on the battlefield is punished with more and stronger enemies.
Extraction or Confrontation Choose between calling for a tactical retreat and extracting with all your valuable loot or facing a formidable final boss for even greater rewards.
Build up your Bunker HQ Invest your loot to hire new mercenaries, purchase gear, unlock upgrades, and enhance your commander clones with new traits.
Couch Co-op Players can tackle operations together with couch co-op, where one player controls the Commander and up to 3 additional players can control the Mercs in the squad.
Additional Features: Full controller and keyboard/mouse support and Steam-Deck verified for portable gaming.

The new Survivor Mercs demo offers the full starting game experience with a limited selection of Mercs, Bunker upgrades, equipment items, and Commander trait combinations.

Now available in Steam Early Access, Survivor Mercs continues to evolve based on player feedback. This new demo offers a peek at the frenzied endless action as the game approaches its full 1.0 release and prepares for its console debut this summer.

Players can head over to the official Steam page and join the Wandering Wizard Community Discord server for the latest updates from the development team in the lead up to full launch on PC and consoles.
