What Kind of Game Is It?

Missions are structured as repeatable runs with changing modifiers and temporary choices, while gear, Collection unlocks and Church progression give the game a persistent layer. That makes roguelike a useful description of the run structure, but not the whole game.12

Combat and Controls

  • Core combat includes light attacks, heavy attacks and Weapon Arts.4
  • Steam lists full controller support and recommends a gamepad.1
  • ProbablyMonsters announced that PC keybinding and remapping support was being developed for a launch-week update.5

Achievements and Cheats

Steam lists 30 achievements. That number should not be assumed to match the PlayStation trophy list. ProbablyMonsters has not published an official cheats policy; this site does not link trainers or cheat tools.13
