Press release:
Vilnius, Lithuania – November 6, 2025.
Developer Nordcurrent, alongside its internal publishing label, Nordcurrent Labs, are today very excited and proud to announce that their intense isometric roguelite adventure ‘I Am Machine’, is now available now via Steam for 9.99€, 9.99$, 8.50£.
The game combines fast-paced combat, strategic base-building, and narrative depth in a mechanized wasteland where survival demands lightning-fast reflexes.
In I Am Machine, players assume the role of Erik, a lone survivor transformed into a cybernetic warrior after losing everything to the machine uprising. With his daughter kidnapped and humanity scattered, Erik must navigate brutal mechanical foes and ever-changing environments in a quest that will determine not only his fate, but also what remains of mankind.
The game’s combat system ensures no two encounters play the same, with players customizing Erik’s arsenal of countless upgrades that mix melee and ranged weapons into devastating combinations. Each biome presents distinct mechanical threats and environmental challenges, forcing constant adaptation of strategies and tactics.
Central to the experience is the innovative “Absorb and Flare” mechanic, allowing players to steal enemy abilities and turn their own devastating attacks against them. Defeated foes also provide scrap materials for crafting defensive installations like turrets and laser systems, allowing Erik to use them in fights and turn the tide of battle in his favor. Between battles, players will encounter survivors throughout the wasteland, each sharing stories that reveal the complex history of humanity’s fall. Erik’s hideout serves as both a sanctuary and a strategic hub, with repairs and upgrades unlocking essential equipment that becomes crucial as the mechanical threat intensifies.
I Am Machine is now available on Steam. For more information, follow Nordcurrent Labs on Twitter, Bluesky, Discord, and YouTube.
