A new shooter title, Rogue Point, is announced with Rogue Point giving us all another way to shoot up the world out there
It is time to kind of move away from all of the horror games and other titles like them further with the announcement of Rogue Point. A new Rogue-lite shooter that is coming from Crowbar Collective and Team17 for the PC that will have us gearing up in another way and shooting up a whole different section of the world. All with three of our friends in a four-player co-op where we will just need to not go rogue. Even if the title like Rogue Point does make it sound like that might be part of the point out there. It is what it is, but we do have the chance to see some of that in action with some early footage of the game to further amplify this announcement we have out there.
As you will see here for Rogue Point, it looks and feels like so many other shooters we have seen on the market. Just with new classes, weapons, and modifiers for the matches as we run and gun our way through the dynamic campaign of it all. We are going to need to plan well ahead for things in Rogue Point to with the shifting nature of the gameplay loop, so maybe having four players could be a bit of a task when we are truly in the mix of it all. Take a look at the video we have for the game just a little lower and see how it could try to stand out from the rest while still feeling like many other shooter titles that we have seen over the decades at the same time. We might need to push for something truly new in the industry if we want to see more progress, though.
