Overview
About this game
ENDURE THE ABYSS. BUILD THE SQUAD. TURN HELL AGAINST ITSELF.
Grow your squad from one fighter to four and build toward bullet-heaven chaos in this twin-stick squad roguelite.
In Hellrifters, physics-driven destruction, four-hero formations, and brutal corpse-soccer turn Hell's chaos into your weapon. Start alone against the horde, grow into a four-soldier death machine, and break Hell itself with the right build.
PASS, KICK, ANNIHILATE!
Your squad doesn't just shoot. It plays a deadly game of soccer with the battlefield. Heroes automatically scoop up demon pieces, severed limbs, and shattered debris within their reach, then pass them to teammates who can hit the targets they can't. Every hero kicks with their own signature style, so your squad feels different in motion as well as in firepower. Punt a charging brute's torso into a horde for a chain-kill, or let your squad set up the perfect kick. Physics is your secondary weapon.
DIRECTIONAL AUTO-FIRE: AIM THE FIGHT, NOT EVERY BULLET
You point the squad; they pull the trigger. Aim a direction and your heroes auto-fire at the most important targets in that arc, so your attention stays on positioning, abilities, and squad commands instead of micro-aiming every shot. Dig in and unload, or hold fire and reposition. You steer the fight; your squad handles the trigger.
FOUR HEROES, FOUR SIGNATURES
Start with a single fighter and unlock new heroes as you progress, building out a four-character squad. Each hero brings a unique weapon, stat profile, exclusive level-up category, and a Signature Ability that only they can use. Lead them in a precision-based chain formation where positioning and timing matter as much as firepower.
SPECIAL ABILITIES TO CONTROL CHAOS
Slow time with Bullet Time, reposition with Teleport, distract demons with Decoy, or unleash devastating force with Deathball. Browsing your abilities slows time, giving you breathing room to think, react, and turn overwhelming moments into tactical victories.
BUILD YOUR DEATH MACHINE
Every level-up offers meaningful choices: flexible free upgrades or specialized premium picks. Collect Upgrade Modules to permanently boost stats, add passives, and unlock new abilities. Dismantle modules and forge new ones by tier, rarity, and category. Combine meta progression with class-specific mid-run upgrades for synergies that turn your squad into a build you designed.
DESTRUCTIBLE BATTLEFIELDS, LETHAL HAZARDS
Shatter cover, wreck the environment, and leave behind scorch marks, blood, and gore that remain for the entire run. Cross lava, sludge, and other deadly hazards with your jetpack, or get dragged down into the chaos below.
PLAY SOLO OR LOCAL CO-OP, 2-4 PLAYERS
Drop in with friends on the same screen. Every mode is playable in 2-4 player local co-op, from the full Rift Campaign to the Battle Arena, with full controller support. Each player commands their own slice of the squad.
THE RIFT CAMPAIGN
Descend through brutal Rifts, each divided into escalating sub-levels. Every mission challenges you with a primary survival goal and optional secondary objectives. Clear them for bonus rewards and faster progression. Unlock new heroes, face tougher enemies, and grow stronger with every descent.
CHALLENGE THE ARCH-DEVIL FOR DOMINANCE STARS
Steamroll the battlefield hard enough and the Arch-Devil takes notice, offering Dominance Stars in exchange for tougher enemies. Earn permanent marks of mastery for the players who break Hell itself with their builds, and have something to prove it.
Whether you survive or fall, Hell remembers.
