A Cyberpunk turn-based rhythm JRPG, Moonana and Serenity Forge have released an extended demo of Keylocker as part of Steam Next Fest.

While Keylocker features classic turn-based combat gamers have come to know and love, moves are executed in real-time in a rhythm game style of play. This translates to players aiming shots, timing attacks, and parrying and blocking enemies in this style.

The biggest demo of Keylocker yet, this demo features two playable party members in the form of the clandestine Dealer and the jukebox-turned-combat robot Rocket. 

One can also play through the first major boss fight and put on a rock concert in a rhythm game style.

Released a month ago, be sure to check out the Keylocker announcement trailer below:
