What to consider
Summarized by AIRisk of Rain 2 fans want hostile planets, big bosses and runs where both you and the enemies keep scaling up. These picks stay in the roguelite world: Ravenswatch and LORT add co-op, Pass the Fear and Sephiria add stranger casts, and Streets of Rogue swaps the dungeon for a city.
Roguelike runs and co-op carry over, now from a top-down view. You play heroes drawn from tales and legends and fight hordes of nightmarish creatures, solo or with up to four players. It promises endless replay value, and the heroes change how each run plays.
Standout features
- Fairy-tale hero roster
- Solo or four-player co-op
- Top-down action fights
2. Streets of Rogue
Best for players who like experimenting and seeing what the run does next.
The roguelite structure stays, but freedom replaces the straight route to a boss. The game is about player choice and anarchic fun, set in a procedurally generated city that behaves like a real one instead of a dungeon. It leans on freedom and surprise more than on boss fights, so runs feel looser than a straight climb to the end.
Standout features
- Procedurally generated city
- Free-form experimentation
- Top-down roguelite pace
A big co-op roguelite with a louder sense of humor. One to eight players battle, loot and pile up ridiculous powerups across a cursed fantasy world, reviving each other on the way to escape. You can also solo it. The tone is loud and joking, with combos and covering each other as the way to survive the chaos.
Standout features
- One to eight players
- Stackable powerups
- Revive your friends
The goal is escape, as in Risk of Rain 2, but on a clock. A crew of oddballs must flee an island within 12 hours, grabbing guns and facing the fight head-on. It is a bullet-hell co-op roguelike, and the crew is deathly afraid of kicking the bucket, which gives the shooting a nervous, comic edge.
Standout features
- Twelve-hour escape deadline
- Quirky playable crew
- Bullet-hell shooting
This one trades the alien planet for a village of bunnies under threat from demons. You fight through hordes, upgrade weapons, unlock new Talents with each run and plan how your inventory is arranged. Co-op is supported, and the roguelite structure matches Risk of Rain 2.
Standout features
- Talents unlocked each run
- Inventory arrangement puzzle
- Pixel-art demon hordes
