Key information
Featherweight Games released the roguelike action title Chained Beasts on October 16. As of October 18, the game has achieved a "Very Positive" rating on Steam, with 82% of its 388 user reviews being favorable.
The game supports up to four players in cooperative play, where participants act as gladiators tethered together by chains. This mechanic limits movement but allows players to trip or bind enemies using the chains. Success relies on coordinating movements with teammates to effectively utilize these constraints.
Players can interact with the arena environment by throwing objects or knocking foes into hazards. Combat preparation involves visiting shops for items and skills. Characters accumulate injuries over time, such as losing an eye or suffering hallucinations, and powerful recovery potions carry significant risks of side effects.
Chained Beasts is available on Steam, PS5, Xbox, and Nintendo Switch with cross-play support. A launch sale on Steam offers the game for 1690 yen, a 35% discount from its standard 2600 yen price.
