About Swapmeat
Swapmeat is a chaotic shooter from One More Game that drops you into a roguelite grindhouse. Released in October 2025 for PC and Mac, it’s all about blasting through alien worlds, scavenging mutant limbs to fuel your arsenal, and swapping weapons mid-fight with body parts you collect. The single-player campaign leans on procedural maps, while co-op and competitive multiplayer let you team up or battle for best score. Think fast, shoot faster, and expect to die often. It’s a love letter to over-the-top action with a focus on customizable loadouts and explosive upgrades.
Gameplay
Each run starts with a basic weapon, but the real fun kicks in when you start looting. Every enemy drop, a glowing eyeball, a serrated claw, or a pulsing heart, adds a new ability. Swap weapons instantly with a button press, cycling between melee, fire, or area-effect attacks. The combat feels twitchy and reactive, with enemies swarming in waves that demand constant movement. Multiplayer modes pit two players against each other in chaotic duels or team-based score grabs, while co-op lets you combine limb collections for overlapping effects. Runs last 15, 20 minutes, with permadeath ensuring every choice matters.
What Players Think
PlayPile users rate Swapmeat 82%, with 43% claiming 100% completion. Average playtime is 14 hours, though 68% of players log under 20 hours total. Community moods skew excited (71%) and chaotic (89%), but 29% call it repetitive. Critics praise the “addictive limb-swapping loop” (PC Gamer) but note “shallow upgrades after 5 hours” (Destructoid). The game has 47 achievements, with 32% of players earning 50%+ of them. Multiplayer sees the most activity, peaking at 12,000 concurrent players on Steam in late 2025.
PlayPile's Take
Swapmeat is a high-octane pick-up for $29.99, ideal for fans of bullet-sponge shooters and rogue-like mechanics. The limb-swapping system is inventive, but the 14-hour average playtime suggests it may not hold long-term. Achievements add replay value, but 23% of players quit before beating the main campaign. Best played in short bursts with friends for co-op chaos. Not a deep experience, but a wild ride if you crave unrelenting action and goofy power-ups.
