As a big fan of Hades and roguelike games in general, Ravenswatch is one I've had my eye on for a while. While the roots of Passtech Games' excellent Curse of the Dead Gods can still be seen, Ravenswatch steps more dramatically away from the Hades structure to offer a freeform open-world ARPG - but one that nevertheless retains all those delicious roguelike hooks. Ahead of its upcoming 1.0 launch in late September, I got hands-on with the game and tried the newest character Carmilla at Gamescom 2024, and I'm already eager to spend more time with her.
