Early Access
The Last Mech: Survive is in Early Access: it is playable now and still in development. New arenas, robots, weapons and improvements will keep arriving over time, and your feedback helps shape it.
How to play
Move to stay alive: your weapons aim and fire by themselves. Collect the green shards robots drop to level up, then pick one of three cards. Don't let the heat bar fill, or your mech slows down; vent it with Shift. Last 12 minutes and destroy the boss to win the arena.
About the game
You are the last mech standing. Waves of robots pour in from every side and keep coming: drones, gunners, shield walls, swarms, bombers and brutes. Your weapons fire on their own; you move, dash and manage your heat.
Every level-up offers three cards: a new weapon or an upgrade. Build a loadout from twelve weapons (lightning that jumps between robots, orbiting drones, gravity mines, a sweeping laser, saw discs, mortars and more) and watch the screen fill with fire.
Three arenas, each with its own danger. The Scrapyard has magnet cranes that drag you and the robots across the yard. The Foundry has fire vents and furnaces that overheat your mech. The Crater sits under a lightning storm whose ring slowly closes in. Each ends with its own boss: the Fortress, the Crucible and the Burrower.
Between runs, spend salvage in the hangar on permanent upgrades, unlock the Brute chassis and the Rail Lance, and take on the next arena.
