Risk of Rain Returns is coming this November to PC and Switch

Gearbox Publishing and developers Hopoo Games have announced that Risk of Rain Returns, the ground up remake of the first title in the series, will arrive on November 8th for PC and Switch. Check out the latest dev diary for the game below, where they talk about new things and of course the release date.

Risk of Rain is an action platformer with roguelike elements. With permanent death as a primary feature, players will have to play their best to get as far as possible.

Hone your skills and abilities, discover new Survivors, and dive into progressively stronger runs! Discover secrets of ancient design lying dormant beneath the surface of Petrichor V. Search under every log, stone, and Gup to find new ways to play!

Many Survivors fled the mysterious attack on your ship. Slice, dice, and serve justice cold with the return of Chef, hold the front line and shield your team as Enforcer, or lay down a path of toxic sludge as everybody’s favorite purple monster: Acrid! Forge new paths to explore with 15 unique Survivors, each with new abilities to master. Two entirely new Survivors are making their debut in Risk of Rain Returns.

The game is out in its original form on many platforms, but the remake is only for PC and Switch at this time. The day the game releases, a special live stream will take place celebrating the 10 years the series has been going for.
