Apocalyptic Roguelite RPG ‘Days of Doom’ Available Now on PC, Consoles [Trailer]

Published

on

Announced a few weeks back at Feardemic’s Fear Fest, Atari and SneakBox’s turn-based RPG roguelite Days of Doom is out today on PC and consoles. The mix of tactical RPG and survival simulation elements can be had on the PC via Steam, Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5, Xbox One and the Xbox Series, and the Atari VCS.

Days of Doom sees you put together a squad of heroes to confront the relentless onslaught of zombies, ghouls, raiders, and other foes on the ultimate mission to reach sanctuary amidst the rubble. Each character class possesses unique abilities. For example, you can turn things up with the Pyro, setting foes ablaze for lingering damage, and finish up with a combination attack from a Hydromancer and Thrasher, drenching enemies with watery assaults before shocking them. You can also boost your squad’s abilities with over 70 items and runes to collect.

The roguelite progression in Days of Doom means no two runs will be the same, but you permanently upgrade stats like party size and speed of resource accumulation, which means each run will get you closer to reaching your goal. It’s all tied together with an orchestral soundtrack by Jelle Dittmar (Death by Flame, The Playboy Murders).

Cult of the Lamb players will be getting more free goodies later this summer with the Unholy Alliance update. Coming August 12, the update introduces a brand new playable character in the Goat, which coincides with the game allowing local co-op.

With the Unholy Alliance update, the entire Cult of the Lamb campaign will be playable in local co-op. Players will also be able to enjoy special 2-player versions of existing mini-games, such as Fishing and Knucklebones, as well as choose from a selection of weapons, tarot cards, curses, and corrupted relics as your cooperative crusades progress.

The Lamb and Goat can also swap weapons, deal extra damage when fighting back to back, and even deliver a critical hit when their attacks are in sync. Good news for those who prefer to stay alone in their corner: they will be able to benefit from various new powers.

In addition to the addition of cooperative play, the Unholy Alliance expansion adds several tarot cards, relics, buildings, fleeces, character traits and quests, as well as the addition of new secrets to discover.

More information on the update will be released as the launch date creeps closer. Cult of The Lamb is available now on PC via Steam, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series, and the Nintendo Switch.
