Relic Hunters Zero is a character-focused co-op that will task players with some “timey wimey” travel to the past to thwart a mysterious villain from destroying the galaxy.

The previous game in the series, Relic Hunters Zero, was a 100% free-to-play, open-sourced game on Steam that boasted an engaged community of over a million players around the world. Rogue Snail is now fully focused on expanding the Relic Hunters universe to a full commercial release.

Relic Hunters Legend brings deep RPG mechanics to players coupled with top-down run and gun combat for up to four players simultaneously. The character-driven elements allow players to customize their Hunter to suit their personal playstyle while traipsing through a world of quirky cartoon graphics. The game’s PC version will support 4K resolution as well as an unlocked framerate for a gorgeous and smooth gaming experience.

Loot is what it’s all about in Relic Hunters Legend and there is plenty of it, with thousands of gun and gear combinations for players to loot while they’re off saving the galaxy. Items in Relic Hunters Legend come in varying rarity levels and an even broader spectrum of effects, from comical to super powerful. Players will be able to use item enhancements to increase the stats on items they can’t bear to part with on their galactic quest. For items that players are willing to part with though, the game’s loot trade system allows players to share items with members of their group of up to four players.

Augmented items also add an additional layer of RPG mechanics with giving players mini quests that once completed will unlock the items full power. Adding another RPG flair, Relic Hunters Legend also incorporates set pieces that players can combine to gain more powerful attributes. Players and their friends will also be able to take on epic boss battles for sweet boss-specific loot drops to make their Hunter a relic hunter to be reckoned with.
