Our take on Voidborn
Death is built into the progression: each rebirth adds permanent abilities and weapon upgrades, so attempts contribute to longer-term character growth.
What is Voidborn?
Voidborn is a fast-paced roguelite first-person shooter set in a dark fantasy world.
Move through underground cities, caves, ruins, castles, and tombs using dashes, slides, wall-runs, and other movement abilities to traverse terrain and avoid attacks. Fight demons and other enemies, defeat bosses, and collect themed weapon powerups that follow upgrade paths. These upgrades can be combined into weapon and character builds. Death is part of the progression: each rebirth brings permanent abilities and weapon upgrades. Explore a varied world with shortcuts to unlock, then challenge demigods as part of a quest for revenge. The Trials of the Scarlet Curse provide a custom difficulty system that increases the challenge.
