SteamWorld Heist is a turn-based tactics shooter video game developed and published by Image & Form.
[2] It was released both physically and digitally (through the Nintendo eShop) for the Wii U on September 30, 2016, in Europe and Australia and in North America on October 20, 2016.

As the game progresses, players can upgrade and customize their robot crew with different consumables, equipment, weapons, and hats.
[10] The game's soundtrack, Music From SteamWorld Heist, is composed and recorded by the steampunk band Steam Powered Giraffe.
