Hey Everyone!

We’re bringing the passion, heart, and skill we have brought to our earlier games, like the Shadowrun series and BATTLETECH, to our next game, GRAFT. You can catch our announcement trailer right here.

We would love it if you’d wishlist GRAFT right now on Steam or Epic! In today’s crowded market we need your help to build the game’s discoverability throughout development.

GRAFT continues Harebrained’s tradition of crafting dense and narratively rich worlds, full of compelling characters and impactful choices.

GRAFT is a post-cyberpunk survival horror RPG set on a vast, dying space station. Explore a world haunted by darkly fascinating characters and nightmarish monsters as you search for an escape. You will survive by grafting, literally tearing pieces from your enemies to transform yourself into something new—something capable of taking on the horrors that prowl around you.

But there’s a catch, every Graft carries with it some small piece of its previous owner… and now they are a part of you.

Who, or, what, will you be when you escape?

As always, thank you—we appreciate your help getting the word out and we can’t wait to show you more as we continue to develop this exciting new game.

GRAFT-fully Yours,

Harebrained​

Will they tone down the wokeness this time?

Will they tone down the wokeness this time?

Someone at Harebrain reads your comment and goes: "Haven't you heard how Sony's latest AAA-title with a black obese handicapped lesbian man flopped??? We need to increase the POZ by ORDERS OF MAGNITUDE if we're going to survive this market!"

 

[Fargus]

I don't expect much. Garbage company that can't stay dead.

Will they tone down the wokeness this time?

The video shows an extremely feminine-looking man, or a dyke girlboss with a mastectomy, so definitely not.

Why bother announcing something if you have so little to show? I have zero interest in something until at least a few minutes of unscripted gameplay are presented.

It smell like they tried to pitch a new Shadowrunner game and someone told them "lol nope"

I wish them good anyways. God knows we need more urban/scifi fantsy crpgs.

I like the music.

I wonder how they manage to stay afloat in this day of studio closures and mass layoffs. With 490 steam reviews, their last big game Lamplighters League didn't seem like it made back a fraction of its cost.

They don't. Almost everybody was laid off. This game is a reboot of the studio basically.
