The 2013 action-platforming roguelike Risk of Rain<\/em> will return in 2023 with a new remake, developer Hopoo Games and Gearbox Publishing announced Tuesday. Risk of Rain<\/em> Returns<\/em> will boast new high-definition pixel art, new music, balance changes, and other new features, the developers said.<\/p>\n Risk of Rain Returns<\/em> is rebuilt from the ground up, the developer said, and implements features from Risk of Rain 2<\/em>, Hopoo’s 2020 sequel that brought the franchise into 3D. (Data from the original Risk of Rain<\/em> won’t be compatible with its remake, the developer said, noting the \u201creworked codebase\u201d of Returns<\/em>.) Revamped multiplayer will make it \u201ceasier than ever to play with friends,\u201d the studio said.<\/p>\n \u201cAs we chart our future as developers, it was important to us that we look back on our early work,\u201d said Duncan Drummond, co-founder of Hopoo Games, in a news release. \u201cRisk of Rain Returns<\/em> is a small token of our appreciation to this incredible community.\u201d<\/p>\n the original Risk of Rain<\/em> was created by a small team of student developers and was crowdfunded through Kickstarter. Risk of Rain<\/em> was published by Chucklefish on Windows PC in 2013, and went on to win the Best Student Game award at the 2014 Independent Games Festival. The game was later ported to Linux, Mac, Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, PlayStation Vita, and Xbox One.<\/p>\n In Polygon’s review of the original Risk of Rain<\/em>, we praised the game for its ability to blend difficulty and approachability. \u201cIt mixes together the challenge, randomness and discovery that make roguelikes so endlessly replayable, but in a form that also feels more welcoming,\u201d we said. The 3D sequel Risk of Rain 2<\/em> was likewise lauded as \u201cthe Mario 64<\/em> of roguelikes.\u201d<\/p>\n Risk of Rain Returns<\/em> will be released on Nintendo Switch and Windows PC via Steam sometime next year.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" The 2013 action-platforming roguelike Risk of Rain will return in 2023 with a new remake, developer Hopoo Games and Gearbox Publishing announced Tuesday.
