If you’re into rogue-likes then you already have quite a few options on the Nintendo Switch eShop, but one major modern indie that’s missing is notable for its absence. Thankfully, that’ll soon be changing, as Rogue Legacy will be heading to the system on November 6th, according to a digital listing in Europe.
The game has a unique approach to the rogue-like formula, where instead of dying and starting again from scratch, you slowly whittle your way through a family tree. Each descendant has their own traits, whether they be positive or negative, and the gold you earn with each run lets you upgrade your home castle and more. Rest assured, unless you’re a masterful player, millenia will have passed by the time you take down the final boss.

Whether it’s an exciting new entry in a series long established or a weird experiment meant only for the dedicated, Tom is eager to report on it. Rest assured, if Nintendo ever announces Elite Beat Agents 2, he’ll be there.
