Set in a series of procedurally-generated labyrinths, Loot River is a dungeon-crawling action-roguelike that combines the tense, real-time combat and dark fantasy stylings of Dark Souls with the spatial block-shifting puzzles of Tetris.

Armed with the power of the Relic, players can shift the ground beneath them, sliding floating ruins together in a series of tile puzzles. As players venture through these endless catacombs, they’ll encounter beasts, lost travelers, and bosses. These cosmic grottos offer a wealth of new weapons and gear to discover, as well as unholy knowledge to unearth for permanent upgrades.

Drawn to shards of an unholy relic, wandering nomads have found themselves in a perpetual cycle of life and death, losing their sanity as they journey through endless parallel realities, devouring each other to absorb the knowledge of their fellow travelers. No two journeys are ever the same as countless lost souls float through the Loot River.

straka.studio with Supershot Presents, are pleased to announce that the abomination-filled waterways of their ‘Dark Souls meets Tetris’ action roguelike, Loot River, are flowing onto PlayStation 5 and PlayStation 4 on December 19th. With the PlayStation debut of the game, Loot River is also getting a raft of updates across PlayStation, Xbox and PC, including a brand new level editor that will allow players to create, play and share custom levels with cross-platform support. 

Along with the new level editor, players can also expect loading times that have been decreased by more than 50%, improved frame rates and other general improvements. The PlayStation version of the game will also feature haptic vibration support and the ability to jump into the Daily Run straight from the PlayStation system UI via the PlayStation Activities system. These updates add to improvements made since the game’s Xbox and PC launch, including the addition of leaderboards, Daily Runs, new enemies and items and an easy mode with animation canceling.

“We’re really excited about bringing Loot River to PlayStation on December 19th and seeing what players do with our level editor across platforms,” said creative director Miro Straka. “Thank you to everyone who has supported the game so far and continues to do so as we’ve made improvements since the game’s original release.
