Finnish game developer Supercell has made a surprising announcement. Following the cancellation of their RPG, Clash Heroes, they've revealed a new project: Project R.I.S.E. This isn't simply a relaunch; it's a complete overhaul.
The Full Story:
Clash Heroes is officially discontinued. Confirming earlier rumors, it joins Clash Mini in Supercell's archive. However, the core concept lives on in Project R.I.S.E., a social action RPG roguelite set within the familiar Clash universe.
Supercell's announcement video features game lead Julien Le Cadre stating, "Clash Heroes is dead. That's the bad news," before adding, "The good news is that Project R.I.S.E. is still a Clash game, and the even better news is that it’s now a multiplayer-focused action RPG."
For more details, watch the video:
Project R.I.S.E. shares DNA with Clash Heroes but is a distinct creation. It's a social action RPG roguelite built from the ground up.Gameplay involves three-player teams exploring The Tower, a mysterious location. Each playthrough covers a different floor, with the objective being to ascend as high as possible. Unlike its predecessor, the focus is on cooperative multiplayer with diverse characters, rather than solo PvE dungeon crawling.
Currently in pre-alpha, Project R.I.S.E. is slated for its first playtest in early July 2024. Registration for a chance to participate is open on the official website.
