About This Game

BUILD THE SQUAD. BRING THE FIREPOWER. TURN HELL AGAINST ITSELF.

In Hellrifters, dead demons become ammunition. Lead your squad in an action roguelite where you burst demons to pieces and kick their remains back through the swarm.

Start with one hero and build a four-hero death squad. Take direct control of your leader while your squad fights alongside you. Aim your attacks, unleash devastating abilities, and keep your heroes alive. Each new hero adds firepower and abilities. Every hero you lose takes their abilities with them.

Shape your build with upgrades and combine your heroes' strengths to push your squad deeper into overkill.

The destruction goes beyond demons. Shatter rocks and cover, then kick the debris into whatever is still standing. Physics-driven destruction turns the battlefield itself into ammunition.

Push through escalating Rifts in the Campaign, or battle through wave-based stages in the Battle Arena. Both modes share full progression: every hero you unlock and every module you collect helps your squad grow stronger.

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.

Your squad fires at will, covering the way you move. Take aim and every hero turns to your fight, while your own gun answers only to you. Want the squad to handle all of it? Turn on Auto-Fire and play it one-handed on a keyboard or with one stick on a pad. 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.
