Zenovia, the developer behind Steel Assault, has announced their latest project, Neon Inferno. This new game combines elements of 2D run-and-gun and gallery-shooter genres, set in a futuristic New York City in the year 2055. Scheduled for release on PC via Steam in 2025.

In Neon Inferno, players step into a dystopian future where New York City is engulfed in internal conflict. The city is divided among criminal syndicates that control most of the boroughs, battling each other and the corrupt New York Police Department for dominance. Amid this turmoil, players will take on the role of an assassin working for a fledgling crime family striving to gain power in this fractured metropolis.

The game’s setting ranges from the devastated slums of the Bronx, where gang wars and police violence rage, to the opulent, neon-lit gardens of Inner Manhattan, where the elite live in relative peace—though not for long. As players navigate through these contrasting environments, they will encounter intense combat scenarios in both foreground and background, combining the mechanics of side-scrollers with gallery-shooters.

Neon Inferno features a distinctive 32-bit pixel art style that captures the essence of its sci-fi cityscape, accompanied by an evocative soundtrack. The game supports two-player cooperative play, allowing friends to tackle the city’s dangers together. For those seeking a challenge, there is an Arcade Mode designed to test even the most skilled players, alongside a more accessible easier mode for a satisfying experience.
