Battle Hell Itself in Tactical Turn-Based RPG ‘Entropy’ [Trailer]
Fans of Lovely Hellplace will be pleased to know that the Dread Delusion developer is back, this time drawing inspiration from old-school JRPGs to bring you Entropy, a post-apocalyptic tactical turn-based RPG. Published by DreadXP, the game sees your troupe of up to six mercenaries journeying to Hell itself to halt the demonic invasion plaguing their world.
Carrying the same retro aesthetics as Dread Delusion, Entropy takes place in a world where only pockets of humanity remain. There was no grand apocalyptic event to speak of; only the cruel march of time and the inexplicable infertility of the world. Creatures stalk the barren lands between the squalid medieval settlements, which are mostly ruled by tyrants.
In the town of Draenog, your theatre performance interrupted by fighting at the gates. Demons have arrived. Your wooden prop sword will have to do for now, as your expedition to hell to stop the demonic onslaught will take you across an expansive world map, littered with explorable towns filled with a variety of characters.
As one would expect, as you progress on your quest, you will level up your characters, increase your stats, and unlock new perks. Should members of your party fall, you can hire Mercenaries to replace them.
Entropy is expected to launch on Steam in 2026. For those heading to PAX West later this week, Lovely Hellplace will have a demo available for Entropy at the DreadXP booth.
Developer Harebrained Scheme gave those eager to check out their upcoming survival horror RPG GRAFT some much-welcomed meat in the form of a new story trailer. The trailer not only touches on the body horror aspect of the game, but also the relationship you share with someone you care about, and the potential consequences you face on your journey through structure known as The Arc.
Currently in development for release on PC via Steam and the Epic Games Store, GRAFT sees you attempting to escape the aforementioned rotting space station. The Arc is a continent-sized station that was once filled with biomechanically enhanced citizens, all working toward some greater purpose lost to time. Now the station is in ruins, its citizens now unrecognizable. And you have no idea how you got here.
In order to escape, you must tear pieces from your enemies to transform yourself into something new—something capable of surviving the horrors that prowl around you. Every Graft brings with it some piece of its previous owner’s identity, changing more than just your physical body.
However, you are not the only survivor in the desolation. Ancient feral experiments, strange abominations, and ruthless agents of a mad AI stalk you. You must use the tools in your growing arsenal as you fight through the horrors in a visceral new twist on classic survival horror combat. Know when to fight, and manage your resources carefully in order to escape alive.
