DEEPWARD - beta

DEEPWARD is now available as an early public beta — a first playable test version of our brutal, fast-paced horror FPS roguelite.

This build is still in active development. Some content, balance, performance, visuals, and features may change before the next beta and the future Steam release. We are releasing it publicly for a limited time to collect feedback from players and improve the game.

Choose 3 heroes from a roster of six, each with distinct weapons, abilities, and playstyles. Build the right squad, switch between heroes on the fly, and fight relentless horrors as you descend beneath a god-forsaken place where every life matters and the darkness never gives back what it takes.

Before each descent, choose 3 heroes from a roster of six. Different weapons, abilities, playstyles, and personal stories make every squad change how the run plays. Switch heroes mid-combat, use the right hero at the right moment, and keep wounded characters alive.

Shoot, kick, slash, and improvise through close-range encounters against relentless horrors. Quick reactions, accurate shots, and violent impact keep every fight moving.

Fight through rooms packed with enemies, keep moving, and kill fast to hold back the madness before the pressure overwhelms your squad.

What begins in a cursed, god-forsaken place sinks into stranger depths below. Explore gothic interiors, caves, prisons, ritual spaces, and impossible places as the truth buried underneath starts to surface.

Help shape the next DEEPWARD beta.
