The rhythm-driven beat ’em up taking social media by storm is now officially playable! Dead As Disco, developed by Brain Jar Games, is available today in Early Access on Steam and the Epic Games Store, bringing its music-synced combat to players worldwide.
Dead As Disco launches at $24.99 (regional pricing may vary), but for two weeks, it’s 20% off at $19.99. This discount is our way of rewarding early supporters.
