The Steam Games Festival - Summer Edition is now live, and there are so many playable demos for upcoming releases that it's, well, a little daunting. But one that immediately caught our eye was the demo for Iron Harvest. An alternate 1920s steampunk RTS that has the look and feel of a spiritual successor to the wonderful Company of Heroes. But, with early 20th century mechs.

Launching September 2, the demo can be found on the game's Steam Page. We're installing it on our end right now. So in the meantime, let's watch the latest Iron Harvest trailer.

Iron Harvest is a real-time strategy game (RTS) set in the alternate reality of 1920+, just after the end of the Great War. The Game lets you control giant dieselpunk mechs, combining epic singleplayer and coop campaigns as well as skirmishes with intense action on the battlefield for multiplayer fans, Iron Harvest is the classic real-time strategy games fans have been waiting for.

Tradition clashes with scientific and technological progress, while Europe is still recovering from the brutal battles of the World War. Cities are being rebuilt and in the countryside, the era of the Iron Harvest has begun. Farmers are uncovering the remains of the majestic walking machines that had fought on the battlefields of the Great War.

In the midst of this chaos, a new threat appears that will put Europe’s very existence at risk. Secret forces are putting everything they can towards destabilization of entire countries, determined to set the world on fire once again and finally seize control.

Stay tuned for more on Iron Harvest as we plan on covering this one in a big way. The playable demo will be live from now until June 23.
