Rogue Lords is a rogue-like game that takes place in a gloomy 17th Century New England, where mortals and diabolical entities walk side by side.The game inverses the usual tropes, with the player taking on the role of the Devil who, weakened following a terrible defeat, is seeking to regain his powers. His goal is to once again spread corruption throughout a world left destabilised by his absence. To achieve his dark designs, he directs a team comprised of illustrious Disciples of Evil, such as Bloody Mary, Dracula, the White Lady and Baron Samedi.
In Rogue Lords, the player explores a 3D map and chooses how he will sow chaos during numerous interactions with other characters. He also launches his Disciples of Evil into difficult turn-based combat and uses their skills as best he can to overcome adversaries. If he loses, it’s game over. The player then loses all character progress and has to start a new run. He will have to choose wisely in order to find a balance that will enable him to avoid defeat. As a last resort, the player can call upon the Devil's special powers and cheat via the game interface in order to turn the situation on its head in a brand-new way!
Rogue Lords is the only roguelike where cheating is encouraged! You play as the devil, and you can use your powers to influence and transform reality by sacrificing some of your Diabolic Essence.
NACON, Cyanide and Leikir Studio are pleased to announce that the Rogue Lords closed beta will be extended and available until 14 June 14, 2021.
The closed beta was due to finish today, but it has been extended for an extra week. This means more players can register here to get a preview of this turn-based roguelike with unique mechanics.

With this power, along with Bloody Mary, Dracula and the Headless Horseman as allies, you can play the tutorial and first part of the story.
Rogue Lords will also be at Steam Next Fest from 16 to 22 June, allowing everyone to try a free demo of the game.
