About This Game

ENDURE THE ABYSS. BUILD THE SQUAD. TURN HELL AGAINST ITSELF.

Hellrifters is a horde survival roguelite where you burst demons to pieces and kick them back through the swarm.

The gore is serious. Nothing else is.

Grow from one rifter into a four-hero death squad, unleash devastating abilities, and build toward gore heaven as every upgrade pushes your squad deeper into overkill.

Physics-driven destruction turns the battlefield itself into ammunition. Shatter rocks and cover around you, then punt the debris into whatever is still standing.

Push through escalating Rifts in the Campaign, or grind wave-based stages in the Battle Arena. Both modes share full progression: every unlock, hero, and module feeds the same squad's growth.

Start with one fighter and grow into a four-hero squad that fights as one. Every hero brings a unique weapon, role, and signature ability.

In every other horde survival game, gore is decoration. Here it is ammunition. Burst demons to pieces, shatter the rocks around you, and kick the debris back through the swarm for chain-kills.

Touch nothing and your squad picks its own targets. Take aim and they focus your direction. Hold fire and every gun snaps to your reticle. Play it one-handed on a keyboard, with one stick on a pad, or as a full twin-stick shooter. You decide.

Slow time, teleport out of danger, call down devastation. Browsing abilities slows time, turning chaos into a tactical victory.

Every level-up and module deepens your build, and persistent progression means you return stronger after every descent.

Summon Pillars of Destruction, sic a Battle Bunny on the horde, and stack absurd premium upgrades into builds that should not be legal. The wilder the build, the harder Hell breaks.

The Rift Order sends you into Hell on missions no one is meant to survive. The briefings are deadly serious. The "tactical illustrations" look suspiciously like a child drew them.
