Hey Disco Crew!
A little less than a year ago we revealed Dead as Disco, a game focused on bringing to life a combat fantasy shared by so many of us: Brawling to the beat of your favorite killer track.
Since then you all have helped us crank the volume to 11! Playtests, bug reports, discord feedback, and all the comments, messages, and viral clips have helped shape the game into what it is today.
Your feedback is at the core of our development process, which makes Early Access the natural next step. We can’t wait for you to join us for the journey ahead, starting with the Launch of Early Access on Tuesday May 5th!
The Opening Act…
For the past year Hemlock has taunted you from atop his speeding train, well we say NO MORE! It’s time to crash some concerts, are you up for the challenge?
Hemlock - A former punk rocker who sold out the revolution, Hemlock now serves as Harmony Corp’s number one enforcer, unleashing his vandalism-prone fans on a whim.
Arora - Engineered for global domination, Arora is a next-gen AI pop idol customized just for you…based on personal data Harmony Corp promises it doesn’t have.
Dex - Dex is a cybernetically enhanced guitar god hardwired into Harmony’s grid, shredding endlessly in pursuit of perfection.
Prophet - Rapper, producer, and kingmaker—Prophet birthed a thousand careers. Now he buries them for Harmony Corp.
… and “The Encore”
Defeating your former bandmates is only the start of the journey. Restore “The Encore” music club, and collect unique memorabilia to help you piece together the mystery behind Charlie Disco’s death and return. While you’re hanging at the club, you can also…
Unlock each Idol’s unique boss ability & skill tree, channeling fan energy across 30+ skills (and counting).
Style your own look with skins, accessories, and animations to unlock.
The Hits Keep on Coming
Still not enough? Then meet us on the dance floor, where you can…
Brawl to the beat of over 30 songs in Infinite Disco featuring a soundtrack full of streaming-safe original music, killer covers, and licensed bangers.
Prove your stardom on both Friend & Global leaderboards across dozens of Songs and Unique Challenges.
Play your own songs and build custom challenges with “My Music”, where any track in your library could be the next potential hit!
Join the Tour
In addition to all of the great content we announced today, players should expect new content drops on a regular basis, expanding on all areas of the game (and some yet to be revealed).
So stay tuned! We’ll be announcing more of the 2026 Early Access Tour stops soon!
Excited? So are we! We can’t wait for you to play and tell us what you think! See you on May 5th!
