Wombo Games reveals itself and its debut title, Raiders of Blackveil

New studio Wombo Games today drew back the curtain on both its own existence, as well as its first game. The studio, which is led by IO Interactive co-founder Janos Flösser, is making a strategy roguelite called Raiders of Blackveil, which it plans to launch in early access this summer. Wombo Games is staffed by developers who’ve worked on such titles as Tomb Raider and Deus Ex. Raiders of Blackveil is currently available to wishlist on Steam.

According to Wombo, Raiders of Blackveil takes elements from MOBAs, RPGs and PvE extraction titles. Working either solo or in co-op groups of up to three, players take on the role of anthropomorphic animals, living in “a dystopian industrial fantasy world where animals are oppressed by a human mega corporation called Blackveil,” according to the game’s Steam page. Players can choose from a variety of champions who, in MOBA fashion, come in eight different classes with a variety of abilities, while collecting loot and going on raids against the villainous Blackveil.
