New Roguelike Release Shakes Up Consoles
Fasten those seatbelts, gamers. Deflector, the frenetic action roguelike game that evokes Diablo vibes, just dropped on Nintendo Switch and Xbox consoles. Developed by the indie pros at RedDeer.Games, Deflector promises an experience teeming with challenges that’ll test both your reflexes and resolve.
Survival of the Fittest in a Virus-Ridden World
In Deflector, players find themselves in a world plagued by a lethal virus. With the fate of humanity dangling on a thread, players must adapt, evolve, and most importantly—deflect. Using foes’ weapons against them, the game puts your reflexes on trial as you tackle villainous virus-infused beings. The bottom line? Cut through the swarms of infected to bring the world back from the brink.
Unleash the Boomerang-Wielding Eradicator
As you progress, Deflector offers more than just a static gaming experience. You start off with the Eradicator, a hero armed with a trusty boomerang. Through triumphs and defeats, your character will evolve, acquiring new abilities. Your endgame? To defeat the Apex Virus, a boss-level challenge waiting at the end of each stage.
It’s Not Just the Enemies—Watch Your Step
While Deflector teems with opponents eager to meet you in combat, don’t overlook the environment. This roguelike isn’t just filled with enemies; it’s also peppered with hazardous elements. Whether it’s acid pools, spikes, or mutant flora, each level harbors challenges that go beyond mere combat.
Coming Soon to PS4
For those rocking a PlayStation 4, hold tight. Deflector will be extending its reach to the platform later this year. Until then, Nintendo Switch and Xbox Series X|S players can dive into this adrenaline-pumping adventure.
What’s the Verdict? Save or Doom the World?
So, will you conquer the virus at its source, or will the world of Deflector crumble in despair? Grab your controller and decide for yourself.
Platforms: Microsoft Windows, Nintendo Switch, Xbox Series X|S
