"Who are you aiming your gun at?"
IRON & INCENSE is a hardcore extraction shooter set in the sealed-off purgatory of Shibuya—a place where high-tech ballistics and taboo jujutsu bleed into one another.
Iron vs. Incense: The Asymmetric Conflict
Experience the violent collision between modern warfare and ancient jujutsu.
Military (Iron)
Master precision-tuned firearms and tactical gadgets. As an 'Assault', dominate the urban ruins with ballistic shields, drones, and overwhelming fire-power to purge the jujutsu sorcerer.
Sorcerer (Incense)
Defy the laws of physics.
Summon offensive 'Shikigami' through blood to tear enemies apart, or conjure mutant creatures using everyday objects to create unpredictable tactical variables.
As a 'Jugu User', swap between the Cursed Blade and the Soul Bow to unleash combo actions that will turn the tide of battle.
The Peak of Suspicion and Tension: NO IFF (No Identification Friend or Foe)
There are no safe allies here. The HUD displays no markings to identify friendly forces.
You must judge for yourself whether the silhouette in the darkness is a teammate, an enemy player, or a 'Mannequin'—a monster wearing a human skin.
The moment you turn your back, deceived by a disguised monster, you become the prey.
A split-second hesitation invites a claw to your throat; a nervous trigger finger results in irreversible Friendly Fire.
An Urban Occult World Where Everyday Life Has Been Corrupted
Familiar subway stations, rain-soaked downtown streets, and buildings packed with people have become 'Forbidden Zones' warped by supernatural phenomena.
You will explore a bizarre city center where the remnants of modern civilization coexist with monstrous entities.
Experience the extraordinary within the ordinary, rendered in high-quality graphics.
The twisted world within will present you with new horrors.
Cursed Artifacts and High-Risk Extraction
Go beyond simple resource gathering—secure 'Cursed Artifacts' imbued with powerful forces. Artifacts promise immense rewards, but from the moment you possess one, you become a target drawing nearby enemies. Defend your loot with blood and reach the escape zone safely. Only those who succeed in escaping will gain everything.
Rebuild and Customization
Use your hard-earned loot to modify your firearms in your hideout or craft new cursed tools. Customize your gear to return to the battlefield as an even deadlier force. In the ever-evolving Forbidden Zone, only the most adaptable predators survive.
The Ever-Evolving Threats of the Forbidden Zone
The city's environment is not static. Amidst suddenly appearing powerful boss entities, the cursed mist consuming humans, and monsters pressuring survivors, you must compete with other players to secure your path to survival.
