'Rogue Point' Is A Tactical Co-op Shooter By The Half Life Remake Black Mesa Creators, Coming to Early Access In 2025 - Screens & Trailer

by Rainier on Nov. 12, 2024 @ 1:04 a.m. PST

Rogue Point is a rogue-lite tactical co-op shooter that offers a strategic approach to high-octane combat.

The CEO, the richest man in the world, is dead.  Cutthroat conglomerates seek to carve up his kingdom. Using the MERX app, rival businessmen can order private mercenary armies as easily as ordering takeout! Only Rogue Point, an elite, independent vigilante squad, dares to fight back. 

Your objective is clear.

Eliminate the MERX, and put an end to the corporate war. Gather up to 4 friends and build an elite team, engaging in challenging missions with a dynamic rogue-lite twist offering hundreds of ways to play.

Dive into the heat of battle in the Rogue Point campaign, where high-octane tactical combat meets strategic planning. Team up, gather intel, and launch assaults against top-tier mercenaries. Face off against the formidable 5 Star Merc, the pinnacle of MERX lethal contractors. Brace for tough, unyielding enemies and relentless action that will push your skills, gear, and teamwork to the extreme.


Ann Hurley, General Manager, Team17 Digital, said: “Team17 has had amazing success in the shooter genre and we're delighted to offer another incredible title in that space by teaming up with FPS veterans, Crowbar Collective. We've seen the high quality they brought to Black Mesa and together we know Rogue Point will take things to the next level."

CEO and Project Lead Adam Engels said “We’re very excited to share that we have partnered with Team 17 for our upcoming co-op shooter, Rogue Point. We cannot wait to go in depth about the game, and everything we learned while creating a new IP (as well as turning Crowbar Collective into a full time development studio). We can’t thank Team 17 enough for their support and expertise. Just like Black Mesa, we want to heavily involve the community in our development and updates. Our community was critical in the Early Access of Black Mesa and having Team 17 as a partner for Rogue Point helps us focus on development and community feedback!”

Key Features:

  • Unlock cosmetics, weapons and campaign modifiers to create loadouts specific to the needs of the mission.  
  • Plan and shoot your way through a dynamic campaign, where no two playthroughs are alike. 
  • Each MERX class presents a unique threat, that challenges you in new and surprising ways.  
    • Soldier: Your basic grunt class. They carry pistols & assault rifles, throw grenades, and work in a squad. You’ll encounter these a lot in Rogue Point, but they are never to be underestimated.
    • Berserker: Juiced up on substances and with no regard for their own life, the Berserker's singular goal is to close the distance and slice your whole team with a machete. They are agents of chaos and will wreck your carefully crafted game plan.
    • Sniper: Heavily fortified in the far distance, snipers will pin your team down and deny you entry into important areas. Their only tell is the laser beam from their gun, and your teammate’s head exploding next to you.
    • Heavy: Heavies are big, slow brutes that don’t take cover and eat bullets. You can dump all your ammo into them with no effect. Run the other way, or find their one weakness.
    • 5-Star Mercenary: These legendary MERX commanders have received the top star rating in the app. Intel on these is sketchy, but we know that these endgame encounters will require your team’s full strength to have a chance to take them down. If you succeed, take a trophy from their body as proof you have triumphed.
  • Evolve operators' skills, interacting with the rogue-lite element of the game.  
  • Gather Intel, plan your assault, and adapt your strategy along the way. Fight your way through missions spread across 4 diverse locations, with each map reshaped by the game's Parametric Design System, offering new strategies and challenges with every play.

Rogue Point is coming to Steam Early Access in 2025, with full launch scheduled for 2026.
