Another big roguish announcement that dropped during The Triple-i Initiative was the news that Ravenswatch, the co-op actioner by Passtech Games (Curse of the Dead Gods) and Nacon, is getting a major new content update on April 22. Here’s the trailer:
Fall of Avalon introduces a whole heap of new content to the game, including a new map, fresh-faced enemies, a boss, talents and a new game mode. It’s the game’s third chapter, and precedes the final version of the game later this year.
As confirmed in slightly more detail over on Steam, there’s a bunch of new content in what is the game’s biggest update so far, including:
Chapter 3 – Avalon: a new map to explore
New enemies and bosses
Reach level 10 (and beyond) in your runs, get more talents and power!
New themed quest: Help Morgan to defeat the Dullahan / Headless Horseman
Upgrade your Ultimate abilities!
A lot of community-requested features!
And WAY more! No seriously, this is our biggest update ever and we cannot wait to share it with you
The full version of the game is going to launch later this year with another new playable character, building on the current PC-only Early Access launch with console versions on PlayStation and Xbox platforms, and on Nintendo Switch.

Still with me? Of course you are! If you want to keep reading about great hand-picked roguelikes, this website is absolutely chock-full of them. Head over to the Guides Page for a concentrated hit of roguish games, organised via sub-genre and platform.
What’s more, there are always going to be new lists for emerging trends as well as fresh titles to highlight. This is because my backlog is embarrassingly long, and so I’m always trying to balance the new games that arrive in my inbox with playing the stuff I already have.
