In a surprising blast from the past, Diabolical Rogue has just been announced. This new FPS is a blend of Arena FPS gameplay like Quake with Roguelike elements. You can grab it right now on Steam Early Access and the Epic Game Store.
This reveal came in the form of a cinematic and gameplay trailer (viewable below) in which we see a variety of cute robots hop inside various mech suits – which reprsent each of the game’s three classes – and take to the battlefield. It’s a brightly coloured, fast paced FPS which shows a lot of charm and promise for a first reveal.
The developers behind the game – GD Studio Inc – was formed from a variety of professional Quake players as well as other esports-minded folks. It’s premier game Diabotical came out in 2020, and while that release didn’t shoot off like many Quake fans would have liked, this new title aims to take that same vibe and gameplay style and mix it up a bit thanks to the Roguelike spin.
