Hello everyone! Today we pushed a patch for Risk of Rain Returns! While this patch has a whole bunch of different balance changes and bug fixes, detailed below, its biggest feature is the inclusion of horizontal mouse aiming! To be clear - this does not allow you to have full 360 degree aiming/shooting - it allows you to put the cursor to the left/right of your character to attack in that horizontal direction. This huge quality-of-life change, along with many of the below changes, was developed in response to player feedback and we would love to know what you think on the Risk of Rain Discord

With Risk of Rain Returns, the classic action-roguelike franchise has come full circle—as has my scepticism about its latest direction. A fervent devotee of the original, I remember responding with incredulity when a full-3D sequel was announced back in 2017. After sinking over 150 hours in that game I became a full-fledged convert, so much so that I now find myself with a paradoxically similar set of doubts: am I ready, or even willing, to smash my escape-pod door open and resume dealing death in a side-scrolling 2D world once again?..

Risk of Rain Returns is finally here, turning the decade-old Steam roguelike into an entirely new experience and one any fan of the genre needs to play and experience for themselves as soon as possible. I've been playing a lot of the Hopoo Games remaster, and it completely lifts a game I bounced off of last year. If you're a fan of Hades, Enter the Gungeon, and Dead Cells, this is the game for you.

The original Risk Of Rain was a chaotic, 2D sidescroller about turning a tiny character into a wandering projectile swarm. It's sequel mimicked the systems but switched from pixel art to 3D - and in my eyes lost a little of its readability in the process. Enter Risk Of Rain Returns, a full remaster of the 2D original with higher resolution artwork, new survivors, and slicker multiplayer. It's out now. Read more
