The traditional multiplayer roguelike, Risk of Rain, returns using an additional dimension and more challenging action. No run will ever be the same with randomized phases, enemies, bosses, and items.
Play alone, or team up with up to four buddies to fight your way through hordes of creatures, unlock fresh loot, and discover a way to escape Earth.
With every run, you will learn the patterns of your foes, as well as the longest odds can be overcome with sufficient skill.
A unique scaling system means you and your foes limitlessly increase in electricity over the course of a match –that which was a bossfight will become a frequent enemy.

Skills
Every character has all kinds of unique abilities and approaches to strike, so you will want to research on what they do beforehand. The majority of them will also have short cooldowns, so don’t just spam .
- M1 – The “shoot gun” button. Has no cooldown, but also tends to be the weakest.
- M2 – A slightly stronger attack.
- Shift – Often a dash of some sort. Useful for evasive maneuvers or just speed up exploration.
- R – Often your strongest ability. Of course, the cooldown also tends to be the longest.
