Play Overview

SteamWorld Headhunter is a co-operative action-adventure where you play a robot who can detach their head to control different robot bodies. Like other SteamWorld games from the developer, it's a stylised and colourful game. Here though, action moves to a third-person view and you can play with a partner.

SteamWorld Headhunter is the sixth entry in Image & Form's SteamWorld series. Details are sparse and we'll update as more become available, although one thing is sure: it will feature collectable hats.

Our examiner, Andy Robertson, first checked SteamWorld Headhunter 2 years ago. It was re-examined by Jo Robertson and updated 22 months ago.
