About the game

Gloomvex is a roguelite shooter with an isometric view by Bitareon Studio. It is scheduled for release on April 17, 2026, on PC. The action takes place on a hostile alien planet consumed by darkness and corruption. The remnants of humanity face endless waves of unknown creatures, and the player takes on the role of one of the last survivors.

Confirmed mechanics include arena survival against waves of enemies, resource collection, boss defeats, and upgrade unlocks. Each run brings new threats, stronger enemies, and dangerous choices. The player collects gold and experience, unlocks new weapon types, upgrades stats, and enhances the character through augmentations.

What the developers have stated: the game is positioned as a dark sci-fi arena roguelite with an emphasis on fast combat, build optimization, and constant power growth. A permanent progression system, escalating difficulty, and grim science fiction atmosphere are mentioned. Single-player mode only.

What remains unknown: system requirements, exact content volume, number of weapon types and augmentations, presence of a story campaign beyond arena mode, supported languages, and price. Given the project's indie status, an affordable price is expected. The project appeals to classic bullet heaven mechanics but with an emphasis on constantly strengthening the character between runs, making each attempt feel noticeably productive. Players can follow updates on Steam and Bitareon Studio's Discord channel.
