Beyond A Steel Sky

Revolution Software’s 1994 adventure game “Beneath a Steel Sky” is getting a sequel, the game developer announced during Monday’s Apple keynote.

No, it’s not “Beneath a Steel Sky 2,” but “Beyond a Steel Sky.” It will find lead designer and Revolution head Charles Cecil and artist Dave Gibbons teaming up once more to bring the cyberpunk adventure to life.

The sequel will be a sight different from the original game, however. It will feature fully 3D environments that empower players with full control of the camera, as well as a new comic book-inspired aesthetic that’s meant to help embody the “spirit” of adventure gaming.

“Beyond a Steel Sky” will retain the first game’s protagonist, engineer Robert Foster, and will explore society viewed through the lens of social control and privacy as enacted by the omniscient AI created by Foster by the end of “Beneath a Steel Sky.” The sequel will explore how living under a watchful AI can be both beneficial and detrimental to society, as well as Orwellian ideas and issues it may struggle with from time to time.

"A few remaining kinks need ironing out, but Revolution's long-awaited sequel is a welcome reunion in an immersive new 3D package that both fans and newcomers can enjoy."

The Good:

Exceptionally visually appealing in the grandest sci-fi comic style
Solid voice acting across the board, particularly the always-amusing d-RYDs
Offers all kinds of delightful references and nostalgia for fans of the original game
The hacking puzzle mechanic is an innovative and fun idea

The Bad:

Lack of puzzle diversity, particularly in the later scenes
Quite a variety of graphical glitches and polish issues
Story doesn’t feel as consequential as its predecessor

Our Verdict:

It’s not a perfect game, but Beyond a Steel Sky is a perfectly joyful experience and a faithful sequel for anyone who loved the original game, while bearing the standard for what a modern science fiction adventure should look and sound like in 2020.
