Thanks We started designing Rise Again years ago. Together with our small team, we've been developing Rise Again alongside you for quite some time now. With the Public Demo, we believe we've established a solid and enjoyable foundation for the Rise Again. When we first began, there weren't many games quite like Rise Again. From time to time, we couldn't help but wonder "Will another Fast-Paced, Realistic, and Atmospheric Action Roguelike that captures the feel of a Traditional ARPG ever appear?". HOWEVER, today Rise Again stands before you, offering a distinct experience even if you're familiar with many of the genres that inspired it. We'd like to Thank All The Players who have supported us throughout this journey…

- Early Access Roadmap - 2 October 2025
That day... I saw a wizard advancing step by step toward the Lich in the depths of darkness. I thought, I need to talk about her, I need to bring her story to you. And yesterday, as I laid out papers on my desk and wrote down what I needed to do, my experiences flashed before my eyes. My hands were writing the Rise Again Early Access Roadmap... As you know, Rise Again tells the story of a wizard's adventure against the Lich. Rise Again combines Realistic Visuals, fast-paced Combat, Hack n Slash, and Dungeon Crawler elements with Action Roguelike gameplay. We will release Rise Again in Early Access to provide you with the best experience and to shape it based on your valuable feedback. We have prepared a Roadmap so you can see the stages that lie ahead. You can view the Early Access Roadmap here or on the Steam Page (Roadmap).

- Community Update #10: Biomes - 5 September 2025
Finally... Hello everyone, We've just discovered a new area, and I’m finally able to share it! With new visuals and information, let's take a look at the Biomes. Forest (Settlements / Village) Forest, Settlement/Village, or Outdoors... Forest feels more peaceful and calm compared to the dungeons. Although we occasionally encounter Goblins, securing the place isn't too difficult. Cave A place near the surface where tribes like Goblins, Orcs, Trolls, etc. live. In the Enemies and Bosses News, we mentioned the Cave. For example, going beneath a structure near the Graveyard leads us to the Cave. By defeating enemies, we advance further and reach deeper levels. We know, we are far from the Lich. However, as their numbers decrease, they get summoned. Underworld Wait, don’t eat! Don’t eat unknown mushrooms. They might be poisonous... Underworld is a place of Mushrooms, Beasts, Stalactites, Sta…
