Risk of Rain is making a triumphant return! It’s been carefully redesigned, beautifully remastered, and brimming with fresh gameplay options. This iconic roguelike adventure is back and better than ever. Immerse yourself in a world of unique loot combinations, entirely new Survivors, revamped multiplayer, and more!
Discover Fresh Gameplay Possibilities
Sharpen your skills, unearth new Survivors, and embark on increasingly challenging runs. Delve into the secrets hidden beneath Petrichor V’s surface, searching under every log, stone, and Gup for innovative ways to play!
Master 15 Unique Survivors
Numerous Survivors escaped the enigmatic ship attack. Whether you’re the returning Chef, Enforcer guarding the front lines, or the beloved Acrid spreading toxic sludge, you’ll forge new paths with 15 distinctive Survivors, each offering unique abilities to master.
Introducing Swappable Skills!
The beloved feature from Risk of Rain 2 makes a return, allowing you to mix and match your method of mayhem. Launch a 12-gauge barrage as the Bandit and follow it up with an energy whip to punish your pursuers in the next round. Adapt your loadout to suit your playstyle as you unlock new skills—choice is yours!
The Pilot from The UES Contact Light Joins the Fray
Soar high into the air and rain destruction on your unfortunate foes. When cornered by monsters, strategically drop a few bombs near the largest pack and make a tactical retreat. As you parachute to safety, witness enemy Stone Golems reduced to soulless rubble.
Introducing The Drifter
This resourceful brawler gathers scrap from conquered foes, spawning items that empower teammates temporarily or unleashing destructive area-wide attacks. The Drifter is an invaluable addition to any Survivor group, supporting the team while delivering her unique brand of damage.
Rule-Bending Artifacts
Inject variety into your run by selecting from over 10 Artifacts, each mutating your experience. Start with a random equipment item that changes with every use or trigger a rampant Imp invasion every 10 minutes. Experiment with Artifacts to discover exhilarating new ways to play.
Potent Pick-Ups
Fight your way to the surface while discovering precious cargo, redeeming items that enhance your speed, damage, or jumping ability. Some items, like the rare Ukulele, electrify your attacks with music, while the Brilliant Behemoth turns even your most ordinary attacks into stunning explosions. Unleash unpredictable combinations and craft your frenetic masterpiece!
The Perils of Petrichor V
Petrichor V’s denizens are as diverse as the many planets they once inhabited. Drawn to the planet by a mysterious force, these near-extinct monsters transformed it into a dangerous menagerie. They’re not welcoming to intruders (aka YOU).
Play Solo or Assemble Your Crew
Descend to the surface solo or with your crew. Strategically choose Survivors to complement each other’s strengths and weaknesses, or go all out with the one with the biggest guns (hint: it’s Loader). With up to four-player online and couch co-op, you’re never alone in this battle.
Risk of Rain Returns boasts enhanced multiplayer services, ensuring that the only obstacle between your crew and survival is the ever-growing hordes on Petrichor V.
