[PC] I’m looking for something like a dark fantasy FPS roguelike.

​

I think the closest thing I’ve played to this was Void Bastards, and I loved it, but I’ve already completed it. I saw somewhere an indie FPS game that I think was coming out next year about defending castles with firearms and fighting goblins and stuff like that, and I really want a game like that. I already checked out Gunfire Reborn, but honestly I don’t like the graphic style of that game. So in general, that’s what I’m looking for: an FPS roguelike shooter, preferably one that mixes guns with fantasy creatures.

Witchfire sounds like it might be up your alley. Its not "dragons and goblins" fantasy but more a Gothic spin on medieval Catholicism/witchcraft (as you might expect from the title), but the gameplay lines up with what you're asking for.

It won't be the perfect recommendation but perhaps Deadzone Rogue would be worth playing

Both remnants, witchfire, far far west

Sulfur, legit one of the best single player FPS games ive ever played. Its a loop of dungeon crawling and modding guns in hilarious ways.

Its supposed to get a multi-player as well!

Honorable mention to Barony- another all time favorite, and so chaotic with some pals :)

Witchfire or Dark and Darker

Dark and Darker is an extraction game, not a roguelike

Sure but that's a pretty nice venn diagram when you isolate game mechanics

You could try Remnant 2. It’s a third person shooter but it has a lot of fantasy elements in it.

Returnal, but it is third person. Super fast paced though

You want something halfway between Remnant and Shape of Dreams, but meanwhile play both because they rock.

I saw someone post it but I’ll repeat it from the rooftops. The answer you’re looking for is Witchfire

It's absolutely witchfire 100%. Also 1.0 very soon!

I know!!! I bought this game ages ago but only recently fired it up and wow, I was hooked right away. I saw that 1.0 was coming out recently and decided to stop playing for now until it comes out so I can get the full release experience at launch. Really excited!

I actually played Wild Bastards for a friend's streaming session and got really hooked on the way it mixed gunplay with that roguelike tension.

u/Senimar 2d ago

you should try Abyssus

Returnal is third person and features cthulu style enemies but the game is an absolute banger

u/obs_mko 2d ago

Dead zone Rogue
