As you dive into Deadzone: Rogue and embark on your missions, you'll find yourself navigating through a derelict spaceship while unraveling a gripping story of malfunctioning AI. Your journey will be fraught with encounters against swarms of biomechanical foes determined to reduce you to a bloody pulp. Thankfully, you'll have at your disposal an arsenal boasting over 30 unique weapons, along with a wide selection of items, perks, and augments to ensure it's the enemies who end up pulverized.

The Early Access version of Deadzone: Rogue includes Zones 1 and 2, which offer a variety of missions spanning hours of gameplay and access to different sectors of the spaceship. The missions are challenging, but in true roguelite fashion, death is merely a stepping stone to becoming stronger. Each failure brings you back with improved loadouts, allowing you to better tackle the diverse enemy types and bosses you'll face across multiple runs, whether playing solo or in co-op mode with up to three players.

The upcoming Full 1.0 Release of Deadzone: Rogue for PC will introduce Zone 3, featuring new enemies, weapons, and gameplay enhancements post-Early Access.

Eager to get started? Deadzone: Rogue is currently available on Steam and the Epic Games Store. For those looking to stay in the loop, joining the game's official Discord server is a great way to keep up with the latest updates and developments.
