Vertical combat
The jetpack is one of the pillars of gameplay. Fights move from the ground into the air, and height control matters as much as aim.
PREALPHA SEASON NOW LIVE!
$> THE ULTIMATE FIRST-PERSON SHOOTER PROJECT
Cybermetal is an ultra-fast, fully multiplayer FPS where every weapon hits with BFG-level force. Jetpacks launch most fights high above the arena, while expanded health pools turn duels into long, brutally intense firefights where movement, aim and pressure matter until the final second.

manifest
What Cybermetal is
The core game features come from the manifesto: fewer flat corridors, more movement, verticality, hard decisions and duels that truly have a shape.
Dynamic movement
Dodge, fast repositioning and mobility management should decide duels as much as reflex and aim.
Longer duels
Cybermetal moves away from instant TTK. Contact with the enemy should begin the exchange, not end the fight.
Powerful weapons
Every weapon should have its own character, weight and purpose: control space, force movement and punish for mistakes.
Arena instead of corridor
The map is a space to read and take over. Entry angles, height, returns into combat and aggressive decisions all matter.
Skill over grind
Progression shows player history, but the result should be decided by movement, timing, resource control and team communication.
prealpha status
Development stage
Cybermetal is in active pre-alpha. The foundation works, but individual systems are still being tested, balanced and stabilized.
Core mechanics and multiplayer
90%Nearly all core mechanics are in place. Movement, combat, respawn, server joining and online gameplay already work together as the shared foundation of the pre-alpha.
Operators and weapons
60%The game includes 10 operators. Each has a unique 3D model, a dedicated weapon and weapon handling animations. Movement animations remain shared. Unique abilities and ULT-style special abilities are still waiting to be developed. Most operators currently use grenades; Phantom is the exception.
Gameplay balance
20%Characters currently have different weapon and health stats, but they move in a similar way. We are collecting data from the first players' live matches and using it to gradually balance operator stats, duel pacing, mobility and weapon effectiveness.
Audio and effects
20%The game has basic audiovisual effects. Their current state does not block gameplay, so expanded audio, hit feedback and special effects have deliberately been moved to a later stage.
Level design
10%At the moment, one level is available: Arena. It is playable and works well in tests, but it supports only a small number of players. We are looking for a level designer to help create more maps focused on 5v5 team play.
operators
Operators
Ten operators for fast matches. Each brings a different combat rhythm, map pressure and a distinct toolset.
Phantom
Phantom moves silently and faster than anyone else in the arena. He is the only operator carrying two weapons: a katana for instant close-range executions and a machine pistol for pressure on the move.

Yes. Cybermetal is and will remain free. It is a fan project created without a commercial profit motive, and I cover all development costs from my own funds.

Windows is currently supported. A macOS version is planned, and if the community is interested, a build for Debian-based Linux distributions may also be prepared.
What are the hardware requirements?
For smooth gameplay, you need at least an RTX 3060 graphics card, a 10th generation Intel Core i5 processor or newer, 16 GB of RAM and about 40 GB of free disk space.
