Set in fractured kingdoms where death itself has been abolished by a misused divine artifact, Rogue Reigns invites players into a decaying world filled with tragic rulers, broken societies, and slow-burning collapse.

This haunting setting is brought to life through a distinctive hand-crafted 3D art direction, combining bold, expressive character design with muted palettes and striking color accents — delivering a visual identity rarely seen in roguelike deckbuilders.

At its core, Rogue Reigns reimagines traditional deckbuilding by shifting the focus from a single character to a party of three heroes, each with their own deck, abilities, and turn order. The interplay between characters is where the game truly comes alive.

After every encounter, the party faces a choice: rewards are limited. One hero gets stronger. The others don't. Over the course of a run, these small decisions accumulate — the hero you've been feeding grows powerful while the ones you've neglected fall behind. When the stalker catches up, someone falls.

Players will assemble a team from a roster of unique classes — including Warrior, Wizard, Rogue, Paladin, and Warlock — with each combination unlocking new synergies, strategies, and emergent gameplay possibilities. At launch, players can experiment with 10 distinct party compositions, ensuring no two runs feel the same.

Developed using Venn Studios’ proprietary Wildcard engine, Rogue Reigns represents a major technical and creative leap for the genre, blending hand-crafted character art and stylized 3D environments with the strategic depth of roguelike deckbuilding.

Venn Studios has released the game’s first-ever gameplay trailer, showcasing hand-drawn characters set against procedurally generated 3D environments — a rarity within the deckbuilding genre — and offering a first look at its innovative party-based combat system.

“In most deckbuilders, you control one character and build one deck. In Rogue Reigns, three characters fight together — and the way they interact is the game. Your party composition is your build,” said Venn Studios' CEO Hugo Neri.

Venn Studios will bring Rogue Reigns to players worldwide with playable demos planned at both Gamescom LATAM and Gamescom Germany, giving attendees their first hands-on experience with the game’s unique mechanics and visual identity.

In addition, Rogue Reigns will be featured in the upcoming Steam Deckbuilders Fest (May 4–11), where players will be able to discover the game alongside other standout titles in the genre.
