Action-Roguelite Curse of the Dead Gods out now on PC, coming to consoles

Focus Home Interactive has unleashed the fast-paced action-adventure roguelite Curse of the Dead Gods on Steam Early Access. The stylish cell-shaded game is also confirmed to come out on PlayStation 4 and Xbox One but there is no release date sadly. Check out the Early Access release trailer here!

The roguelike and roguelite genre is massively over-represented these days. Since the start of the indie revolution at the start of the last decade, especially small-scale projects have been adopting the theoretically endless amount of content. But more often than not, developers opt for pixel art or 2D visuals which has led to gamers grow tired of superficial similarities.

You seek untold riches, eternal life, divine powers – it leads to this accursed temple, a seemingly-infinite labyrinth of bottomless pits, deadly traps, and monsters.
Collect mystical Relics and an arsenal of weapons to make yourself unstoppable. Battle through hordes of enemies in dark, cavernous passages filled with traps and secrets of all sorts – fire-spewing statues, explosives, hidden spikes, and worse.
Corruption builds in you with every step – encourage or ignore it, but each powerful curse can be a double-edged sword.
Your greed will lead you to death, but that is not an escape. Rise to fight again. Delve deeper again. Defy the malignant deities that linger in this place.

French developer Passtech Games has the remedy for that by opting for a full 3D technical make-up with Curse of the Dead Gods. Not only that but by opting for a super stylish cell-shaded look, their Early Access game manages to stand out even more among similar games.

You can get your Indiana Jones fix as of right now on PC where Curse of the Dead Gods is already available via Steam for $14.99, with a PS4 & Xbox One release being confirmed for the future.
