Rogue Heroes Ruins of Tasos Porting to Switch
Tuesday,
5th May in the year of our Lord 2020 – Team17 and
Heliocentric Studios have today revealed that upcoming action
roguelite Rogue Heroes: Ruins of Tasos will be coming to Nintendo
Switch this summer. Today’s announcement means up to four players
will be able to try and save the threatened land of Tasos while at
home or on the move, across both local and online co-operative
multiplayer.
Rogue Heroes: Ruins of Tasos will see players tackle enemy and
puzzle-strewn, procedurally-generated dungeons and explore the
expansive overworld of Tasos in a bid to save its people from the
Titans. Away from the multi-level dungeons players can spend their
well-earned spoils on new weapons and abilities, rebuilding the
village of Intori, or can venture out and uncover the many secrets
hidden throughout the land.
Key Features
Roguelite dungeon-crawling: Take on procedurally-generated dungeons
packed with a variety of monsters, earning gems to spend on upgrades
to get further in the next run
Adventure together or alone: Up to four players can explore the
lands of Tasos and tackle the dungeons, assisting and reviving each
other to earn victory together
Classic gameplay reinvented: This is top-down adventuring brought
into the modern day with colourful visuals and a number of options
for combat, puzzle-solving, and exploration
Joshua Gump, Co-Founder, Heliocentric Studios, said:
“Developing Rogue Heroes: Ruins of Tasos for Nintendo Switch as well
as PC seemed like a no-brainer for the studio, especially given its
classically nostalgic visual style and gameplay. We’re sure Nintendo
fans will enjoy the roguelite adventuring that the game brings to
Switch, whether they’re playing solo or with friends, as they work
to uncover treasures, defeat enemies, and become legendary heroes of
Tasos!”
Chris Coales, Producer, Team17, said:
“We’re very happy that Nintendo Switch players can enjoy the
roguelite adventure of Rogue Heroes: Ruins of Tasos! Working with
Heliocentric Studios on the game has been a lot of fun, and we can’t
wait to hear what players think later in the year, once they get
their hands on the full release and see all of the secrets that
Tasos has to offer.”
