Diabotical Rogue Launches on PC: Early Access Now Available

Diabotical Rogue is an online, PvP, first-person shooter with roguelike systems. Made for FPS enthusiasts, players can experience adrenaline-fueled gameplay combined with buttery smooth movement. This team-based shooter enters Early Access now with 4v4 and 16v16 PvP to provide an opportunity for players to offer feedback that will inform future development plans.

Key Features:

• Three suits, each with unique weapons and abilities
• Roguelite progression tree for each suit
• Early Access Game Modes: 4v4 Wipeout & 16v16 Warmup
• Music Soundtracks by Seth Everman (former Youtuber)
• Working with Get_RiGht and friberg on a new PvP game mode
• Custom Map Editor

Diabotical Rogue is inspired by FPS hits such as Overwatch, Team Fortress 2 and APEX Legends, as well as roguelike hits such as Risk of Rain 2, Slay the Spire. The premise is simple: players are presented with 3 options every time they have to make a choice. Pick a starting suit and upgrade weapons & abilities as the match progresses. The studio wants to encourage players to create unique builds and push the game to its limits.

Game Modes in Early Access

Wipeout: Players engage in a 4v4 round-based battle with escalating respawn timers after each death. Eliminate the whole opponent team to win the round.

Warmup: Two teams of 16 fight in a large-scale chaotic shootout.

Early Access Plans

The team plans to expand the current game and introduce new suits, more upgrades, and a large-scale MOBA-inspired FPS mode.

A new mode is also set to be designed by acclaimed Counter-Strike veterans GeT_RiGhT and Friberg, internally titled "Project One Shot".

“Super excited to join the GD Studio and get the chance to create our own gamemode. This is something that I've been thinking about doing for a long time, to get the chance to put my own touch to a game with help from my good friend GeT_RiGhT.” Says Adam “friberg” Friberg.

An exact roadmap is yet to be released, and the studio calls for players to join in and help shape the development future.

Custom Map Editor

The game also comes with its own map editor, empowering the community to craft their own maps using the very tools employed by the development team. These maps can then be tested and explored in custom lobbies, adding a whole new layer of creativity to the gameplay experience.

The team plans to add enhancements to the map editor: including improved user accessibility, tutorials, a comprehensive wiki, and increased ruleset customization for community content creation.

Diabotical Rogue was shadow dropped on the OTK Games Expo’s livestream, and is now available on Steam, Epic Store [19,99 USD, regional pricing applies].
