About Slave Zero X

Beneath the city’s decaying foundations, a courageous warrior is on a mission to seek vengeance and put an end to the tyranny. The game is a prequel to the popular Slave Zero, providing an immersive experience in a world plagued by horrifying biomechanical creatures called Slaves. The Guardians, a secret group of warriors, are determined to prevent the release of these deadly machines.

By merging with a stolen Slave Unit Prototype, Shou transforms into a fearsome Devil, driven by the sole purpose of eliminating the false God.
