Uncle Death now has a PC, so Let It Die is coming to Steam

Grasshopper Manufacture’s free-to-play hack-and-slash adventure Let It Die is coming to Steam this fall. Publisher GungHo Online Entertainment America released it for PlayStation 4 at the end of 2016, and Grasshopper has spent the last year updating it on that platform. It surpassed 4 million downloads on PlayStation 4, and now it is getting a chance to win over PC audiences.

While bigger games like Fallout 76 and Call of Duty: Black Ops 4 are skipping Steam, developers like Grasshopper are still embracing Valve’s PC gaming service because it has a huge audience that is willing to try new games. And the success of Monster Hunter: World on Steam shows that Japanese games can have a huge following on Steam as well. Let It Die makes money through microtransactions, like letting you pay to save one of your characters who just died, and it should benefit from launching on a platform that millions of people already use to make in-game purchases.
