In Rogue Lords, you play as the devil, who was defeated by demon hunters several years ago. To regain your power, your disciples – nine evil geniuses who have signed a pact with you – must seek out some legendary artifacts. To defeat your enemies, you must use your diabolical powers to cheat, in exchange for some of your Diabolic Essence. But be careful! If you use up all your essence, your run will end.
Rogue Lords is the only roguelike where cheating is encouraged! You play as the devil, and you can use your powers to influence and transform reality by sacrificing some of your Diabolic Essence:
- If winning a fight seems impossible: you can manipulate the health bars of your disciples or enemies, steal buffs and return debuffs.
- Interactive events can provide valuable advantages if you are successful. Your chances of success depend on the actions required and the skills of your disciples. If luck is unkind to you, you can switch into Devil Mode and boost your chances of success.
- With each run, the map is randomly generated, and you will be offered several paths. In exchange for some of your health, you can take hidden routes between paths to reach places that were previously inaccessible.
Watch this space because Rogue Lords has promised to be back soon with more information. The game will be available in 2021 on PC, PlayStation®4, Xbox One and Nintendo SwitchTM..
