This game will also share the legendary characters with previous titles but will be free to follow its path. That’s one of the main reasons the gaming community is so excited to see Risk of Rain – Hostile Worlds release.  

The gameplay will be a fast-paced roguelike game made in a more cartoonish style than the previous titles.

Gearbox Publishing promised “heart-pounding bullet-hell gameplay,” so we think the game will be exciting for newbies and players familiar with Risk of Rain’s lore.

With only one announcement trailer revealed it’s pretty hard to say what to expect from Risk of Rain – Hostile Worlds.
