Our take on Necroslayer
Rather than using a fixed hero and a single linear campaign, the game combines first-person combat and open-world exploration with repeated roguelite playthroughs. Characters arrive through story progress, while persistent upgrades carry progression between runs.
What is Necroslayer?
Necroslayer is a dark-fantasy open-world roguelite built around first-person action combat.
Players choose from several characters unlocked through the story, with each character having a distinct loadout and statistics. The game begins in Mara, a village threatened by awakened corpses and spirits, where adventurers gather under the guidance of the wizard Crookstaff. Exploration provides access to weapons, armor, and levels, while progression between playthroughs raises statistics and survivability. The setting includes hostile undead as well as friendly ancestor ghosts. The story follows a group with varied origins and personal motives as they confront the dark magic spreading through the land.
