Astrolabe Games is showing OMEGA PHENEX at Bilibili World 2026. The mech action game, developed by Surume Game Workshop, puts players in the pilot seat of the Icarus mecha. The game takes inspiration from Armored Core: For Answer but features more forgiving controls, with a boost gauge that depletes slowly and no turn speed limit. Players can customize parts and tune performance. The demo includes a tutorial and a boss fight against a massive missile-launching weapon.
OMEGA PHENEX is set in a future where humanity finds the new continent Atlantis but is blocked by autonomous weapons. The organization IUM is formed to monitor the region, and it develops the secret Icarus mecha. The demo at Bilibili World 2026 walks players through a tutorial where they learn to use four weapons mapped to the Xbox controller's face buttons and bumpers. Overdrive temporarily removes ammunition consumption. The game does not use lock-on aiming, requiring manual aim. Customization includes part swapping and parameter tuning. A boss fight against a massive unmanned weapon tests the player's ability to dodge missile barrages.
