About
Set in a scorched future world, Roboquest invites players to step into the shoes of a Guardian tasked with fighting a rogue AI to give humanity a fighting chance of survival. Playable in both single-player mode or online two-player cooperative play, this high-energy first-person shooter delivers action-packed gameplay, randomly generated environments, and dynamic combat, ensuring no two runs are ever the same.
Players will blast through a variety of environments, from desolate canyons to futuristic cityscapes, collecting upgrades and weapons while facing off against tough enemies and challenging bosses. With each run, you’ll unlock new persistent upgrades and further customize your basecamp, creating fresh strategies and refining your playstyle as you push to dive deeper with every attempt.
Key Features
- Guardian Classes – Choose from several classes: lead your army of drones, blast tons of enemies at once with a powerful rocket or stealth-in for a sudden burst attack.
- Build Customization – Create your build along the way with unique sets of upgrades for each class, find powerful synergies and further personalize your playstyle.
- Weapon Diversity – From regular shotguns, rifles and snipers to the almighty mortar and flare gun, Roboquest offers a large diversity of weapons to choose from.
- Random Levels – Each with a different theme and atmosphere, generated with a careful mix of pre-placed and randomized chunks, the levels offer a fresh challenge each run.
- Run, Fall, Run Again – Tough challenges await you, and mastery is required. Learn the way of the enemy and master movement and shooting to prevail. Prepare to return to your basecamp if you are destroyed by the evil bots.
- Persistent Upgrades – Collect wrenches during your runs and use them to upgrade your basecamp and unlock new gameplay elements and choices to help you dive further into the game each run.
