What is Dead as Disco?
Dead as Disco is a neon-soaked rhythm beat-em-up from Brain Jar Games. In Steam Early Access from May 5, 2026, it mixes Arkham-style crowd fights with timing that follows the music — closer to Hi-Fi Rush energy, but with heavier parry-and-punish spice.
You play as Charlie Disco, back for one wild night against former bandmates turned corporate idols. Everything feels better when your hits land on-beat thanks to Beat Kune Do.
Infinite Disco lets you bring your own MP3s — dial in BPM and lag, then brawl to your playlist.
Supports solo or co-op, is Steam Deck Verified, and has a lively mod scene on Nexus Mods / GameBanana.
