Damon and Baby Is a Cute Yet Tough RPG Shooter From an Unexpected Developer

Damon and Baby is a quirky top-down action RPG shooter from Arc System Works, the studio behind Guilty Gear and BlazBlue. In the game, you play as Lord Damon, a demon cursed to be bound to a mysterious baby. Together, you must explore a dangerous world and break the curse—mostly by shooting everything in sight.

The gameplay mixes exploration, strategy, and twin-stick shooting, with both close-range and ranged combat. You’ll gather weapons, defeat bosses, and level up back at your home base, where you can also customize skills, outfits, and upgrades.

There’s also two-player local co-op, letting a friend control Damon’s dog to assist in combat and item collection. Damon and Baby launches on Steam, PS5, PS4, and Nintendo Switch on March 26, 2026, with a demo and a 10% pre-order discount available.
