Wildkeepers Rising is having a playtest in December

As a seasoned gamer with a soft spot for anime-inspired titles and a penchant for bullet-heaven action games, I can’t help but feel a surge of anticipation upon hearing about Wildkeepers Rising. With its promise of a unique blend of creature collection, roguelite progression, and bullet heaven gameplay, this title seems tailor-made for me.

Lioncode Games developer has revealed that their action-packed game Wildkeepers Rising, often referred to as “bullet-heaven,” will host an alpha playtest in December. This event is scheduled during the Bullet Heaven Fest on Steam, which takes place from December 4th through December 11th.

As a gamer, I’m all about diving into Wildkeepers, a game that merges the adrenaline rush of a survivor-like with the addictive charm of creature collecting. In this epic adventure, I’ll be battling relentless swarms while teaming up with an array of potent monsters. Ready for some fun? Sign up for the playtest to tame an enchanting bunch of Guardians, their designs beautifully crafted by artists inspired by none other than Akira Toriyama, the mastermind behind Dragon Ball!

Check out the latest trailer, below:


 

In simpler terms, Wildkeepers Rising is an exciting action game that combines the fast-paced shooting style of a “bullet heaven” with the addictive charm of collecting creatures. You’ll tame extraordinary Guardians and battle menacing swarms of monsters invading the world. The art style is reminiscent of classic fantasy and anime, and this hand-drawn indie game offers a rewarding gameplay loop featuring diverse maps and modes to discover!

  • Bullet Heaven | Shred thousands of enemies by creating synergies with different tameable Guardians.
  • Hand-Drawn Art | Inspired by the works of Akira Toriyama (Dragon Ball), Jim Henson (The Dark Crystal), and Hayao Miyazaki (Studio Ghibli).
  • Creature Collector | Discover, tame, and train magical beasts, and trigger their devastating special attacks in battle!
  • Roguelite Progression | Unlock and acquire upgrades in your village between runs
  • RPG Elements | Discover a rich world of fantasy heroes and magical monsters and a tale of vengeance.

Previously, Lioncode Games launched Mech Armada, a game which has garnered overwhelmingly positive reviews on Steam at the moment, and it hit the market back in June of this year.

Regarding the duration of Wildkeepers Rising being in Early Access, the developer mentioned: “We anticipate that Wildkeepers Rising will remain in Early Access for approximately a year. However, circumstances may alter this, and the game will stay in Early Access until we believe it’s fully polished to our satisfaction.

Wildkeepers Rising is coming to Steam early access “soon”.
