Risk of Rain is an action platformer with roguelike elements. With permanent death as a primary feature, players will have to play their best to get as far as possible. Fight on a mysterious planet with randomly spawning enemies and bosses, either alone or with 3 friends in online co-op.

Storyline

After a space freighter is attacked and crashes onto a strange, uncharted planet, a lone survivor is left stranded amid its hostile wilds. Cut off and hunted by the world's ever-growing swarms of monsters, the survivor must scavenge the ship's scattered cargo for gear and fight to stay alive. With danger mounting the longer they linger, the survivor races to locate a teleporter and find a way off the deadly planet before its horrors overwhelm them.
