Today, independent developer One More Game revealed that SWAPMEAT, the co-op roguelite third-person shooter where you swap body parts with the alien weirdos you fight to steal their abilities, will launch in 2025 for PC and macOS via Steam. The developer also shared the dates for what will be one of the final Meat Lab playtests for the game prior to launch. Running from May 15 through 22, players can sign up for Meat Lab 5 access at playSWAPMEAT.com to experience the game’s delightfully squishy – and surprisingly deep – meat-swapping gameplay mechanic. Aspiring Meat Scientists are encouraged to add SWAPMEAT to their Steam wishlist today.

In SWAPMEAT, players step into the boots of Meat Scientists working for the multi-galactic corporation Rangus Meats. Your mission? Raid the weirdest worlds in the cosmos, engage in exhilarating third-person combat, harvest DNA samples from the locals, and extract the planets’ meat cores. Whether solo or with a four-player co-op squad, you’ll battle alien weirdos and beefy bosses for their meaty trophies. As you loot body parts – from heads and legs to torsos – you’ll enhance your character with game-changing abilities, switching up playstyles on the fly using Rangus Meats’ patented Smart Meat technology. 

Find out more about SWAPMEAT and sign up for this and future Meat Labs on the game’s official website, join the discussion on Discord, and follow the game on BlueSky, YouTube, TikTok, and Instagram.
