10tons announced today that Skeletal Avenger, a hack'n'slash reverse roguelite with decapitating special moves, is coming to current and next-gen consoles as well as PC in late 2020.

A rogue-lite hack'n'slash rushing head first into battle! Crawl through the dungeons, gain new gear and devastating perks. Avenge a thousand wrongs in a reverse roguelite where the skeletal avengers ascend from the depths to demand a payment in blood!

What does reverse roguelite mean? In Skeletal Avenger it means instead of delving deeper into a dungeon, you ascend from the depths towards the surface where your target is waiting. Every re-animated skeleton has a grudge to settle with someone: A target for revenge - a nemesis.

Instead of playing until dying, you play until you or your nemesis dies. You gain bigger rewards if the quest ends in completing the revenge. If you die, your revenge fails - but there'll be always more grudges to settle.

One of the core features we love are the self-decapitating special moves: The avenger will remove his head and use it as a weapon! What the head does depends on the head gear and there'll be plenty of variation. The head might explode or it might vomit necrotic slime. Or maybe it rolls like a bowling ball.

So, prepare for an outrageously fun and fresh hack'n'slash experience. The game is set to release first on PC and current and next-gen consoles in late 2020. iOS and Android versions follow a bit later.
