Rogue Point reveals the first look at gameplay via Gamescom

Team17 and developer Crowbar Collective have revealed the first gameplay trailer for Rogue Point, the studios upcoming co-op shooter that asks the question, what if Counter Strike was a rogue-lite. Check out the gameplay trailer below to see what I mean.

The game pits teams of four against computer-controlled enemies of different classes, each offering unique challenges. The focus in Rogue Point is providing a quick and clean FPS experience and cooperation. Players must strategize and play with the right loadouts or risk losing. The roguelike element of the game comes with each run as you replace weapons and equipment, completing objectives or scoring kills earns you in-game currency, which can be spent on gear at the start of each new map.

This won’t just be about jumping into a random map and playing, there will be a campaign to discover, along with the chance to discover new dangers as you push through. Here are the highlights for the game:

  • Campaign - Dive into the heat of battle in our campaign, where high-octane tactical combat meets strategic planning. Team up, gather intel, and launch assaults against top-tier mercenaries. Face off against the formidable 5 Star Merc, the pinnacle of MERX lethal contractors. Brace for tough, unyielding enemies and relentless action that will push your skills, gear, and teamwork to the extreme.

  • Relentless Replayability - Fight and maneuver your way through missions spread across diverse locations! Each sprawling map is reshaped by the game's Parametric Design System, offering new strategies and challenges with every play.

  • Grow Your Economy - Earn your keep on the frontlines, then purchase new hardware for your arsenal. Deck out your loadout with hi-tech attachments, and plenty of tactical equipment to make infiltration and extraction a breeze.

  • Build Your Team - Work as a team to overcome the odds. Rogue Point is purpose-built to reinforce teamplay and pull players into combat. You have to adapt, overcome, fight, and maneuver with your squad to win. Start with nothing more than a pistol and an armored vest and earn an elite arsenal through successful missions and strategic team play.

  • Risk VS Reward - Rogue Point has teams taking risks not just on mission, but in the planning and loadout stages as well. Use the game's Dead Drop for a chance at getting the best gear, and specialized weapons you cannot get anywhere else.

  • Weapons and Customization - Customize your Rogue with 20+ weapons, 40+ tactical items and attachments, and 60+ cosmetic items.

The game is expected to launch into early access later this year, but there is no firmer date at this time.
