ARMATUS Is a Demon-Slaying Roguelite Shooter Set in the Ruins of Paris
The end of the world has a familiar skyline in ARMATUS. Set in the shattered remains of Paris, this third person roguelite shooter throws players into a city consumed by demons, where reality itself is unraveling and humanity’s final hope lies behind holy wards.
You are the last supernatural warrior of an ancient order. Armed with firearms and celestial powers, your mission is clear: carve a path through the chaos and uncover the lost gateway to heaven known as the Sunless Gate.
Humanity’s Time Is Over
Paris is no longer a city of light. Streets once filled with life are now crawling with grotesque monsters, and the further you push forward, the more twisted the world becomes. Survivors remain hidden behind sacred protections, convinced they are the last humans alive.
Their salvation depends on you.
As you scour the ruins, familiar architecture gives way to increasingly nightmarish hellscapes. The Scoured Path is not just a journey through a broken city, but a descent into something far darker. Each new area introduces stronger and more disturbing enemies, demanding sharper reflexes and smarter builds.
Fight. Die. Repeat.
At its core, ARMATUS embraces the roguelite loop. Knowledge is your most reliable weapon, and death is only a temporary setback. Each run sends you back into the fray with lessons learned and new strategies in mind.
You wield a scythe alongside a gun of your choosing, blending close quarters brutality with ranged firepower. From SMGs and shotguns to abilities like holy fire and time manipulation, combat leans into fast, aggressive play. Celestial powers and passive enhancements allow you to evolve your style every run, creating lethal combinations tailored to how you want to fight.
Die, revive, and push further next time. Mastery comes not from a single flawless run, but from persistence and experimentation.
Start Strong, End Godly
Unlike many roguelites that begin with fragile builds, ARMATUS promises power from the very first step into the ruins. You are already heavily armed, but the real thrill lies in stacking new abilities until you feel nearly unstoppable.
Finding your ideal mix of weapons and powers is part of the appeal. Whether you prefer crowd control with rapid fire weapons or carving through demons with empowered melee strikes, the game encourages players to chase that perfect synergy.
The question remains: will you grow strong enough to conquer the horrors waiting at the end of the Scoured Path?
Developed by the same team behind Godfall, ARMATUS is set to release on Xbox, PlayStation, Switch 2, and Steam, bringing its demon infested vision of Paris to players across platforms.
