Theres a metal festival simulator game coming out, overseen by a member of Sabaton [Video]

Horns Up Games, founded by Sabaton bassist/manager Pär Sundström, have announced a metal festival-themed video game called Lord Of Metal.

The new title is expected to be released on Steam in 2027, with console releases to follow. Promoted as a “Single Player Story Driven Heavy Music Festival Management Simulator”, the game will see the player “start small and go big, organizing concerts and festivals, bringing life and colors to a dystopian bleak world”. You can back the project by heading to its official Kickstarter page.

Sundström, Horns Up Games’ CEO, comments: “For the past 25 years my life has revolved around the music industry: playing live shows, managing a band, performing at and organizing festivals. I wanted to make an exciting single-player game that I myself wanted to play. Not some mobile game with tons of in-app purchases and no gimmicks… So join us on this adventure and support us on Kickstarter.”
