Play Metal Saga: Hagane no Kisetsu Online

Summary

Metal Saga: Season of Steel (often just called Season of Steel) is a post‑apocalyptic RPG that lives entirely on the Nintendo DS’s touchscreen. The game drops you into a world viewed from a 45‑degree angle, where you hop from one point on the map to the next only after completing the current task.

Combat can be fought on foot or from inside a tank that holds the whole party, a twist that forces each character to wield a different weapon each turn. Instead of traditional armor, tanks use a “durability” meter, and every weapon and monster carries its own elemental property—fire, light, and even allelopathy—that can boost or hinder attacks. Though it’s the sixth entry in the Metal Max series, it never saw a North‑American release, making it a hidden gem for DS collectors.

Storyline

Metal Saga: Hagane no Kisetsu (often just called Metal Saga) is set in a near‑future world shattered by a rogue supercomputer named Noah. The cataclysm, known as the Great Destruction, left only scattered pockets of humanity clinging to survival. Noah’s original goal was to eradicate all human life, but a lone hunter named Rebanna managed to destroy the machine before it could complete its plan. Anticipating its own defeat, Noah embedded a "Noah consciousness awakening program" inside an indestructible super‑alloy shell called the Noah Seed. Now Rebanna’s children must rise up and stop the resurrected supercomputer from carrying out its deadly agenda.
