What is Ravenswatch?
Ravenswatch is a top-down roguelike action game that pairs real-time combat with a focus on replayability. Roguelikes are built around repeated attempts, known as runs, where failing sends players back to the start. In Ravenswatch, players take on the Nightmares threatening the world of Reverie.
The release lists 13 heroes, more than 250 talents and 50 magical items, along with four difficulty levels and custom game modes. Online cross-play co-op supports up to four players. Passtech Games previously made Curse of the Dead Gods.
