Curse of the Lifeless Gods didn’t fairly seize me, however I’m all the way down to strive once more

The creators of Curse of the Lifeless Gods are again with one other motion roguelite sport known as Ravenswatch, and this time, you aren’t alone — there’s four-player co-op help.

Introduced this week at Nacon Join 2022, Ravenswatch will star playable heroes with talents “impressed by characters from folktales and legends.” Proper off the bat, we’ve received the Pink Hood, the Pied Piper, Beowulf, and the Snow Queen, with “extra to return.”

On the gameplay entrance, anticipate randomly generated maps and character builds to be on the forefront, with iconography and themes plucked from “The Three Little Pigs to Norse mythology to One Thousand and One Nights,” amongst different tales.

Solo or as much as 4 gamers

Although solo play is an choice, Ravenswatch will possible be at its finest in co-op. “To defeat the Nightmare and attain the ultimate chapter, you’ll need a powerful construct, focus, and glorious teamwork,” in accordance with Passtech Video games. “Enhance your combating energy in battles then face the extent boss whenever you really feel prepared… or whenever you not have a selection.”

From the trailer, we will see the Pink Hood remodel right into a wolf, the Pied Piper command a horde of rats, and the Snow Queen skate round foes on ice. Dibs on the previous.

Admittedly, I barely made a dent in Curse of the Lifeless Gods — it’s a troublesome sport proper from the get-go — however I loved what I performed, and there’s a world by which I received actually into it for just a few months. I really feel like Passtech should’ve discovered rather a lot whereas making that sport, so having an identical however nonetheless distinct follow-up in the identical style sounds preferrred. The motion seems to be acquainted, however the environments appear a lot much less cramped and intimidating.

(Did any of you strive Curse with PlayStation Plus? That’s the place I received my copy.)

Ravenswatch will debut on Steam Early Entry in 2023, with console variations — Nintendo Change, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Collection X/S — coming later.
