A swarm of different kinds of monsters attack in Risk Of Rain Returns.

The original Risk Of Rain was a chaotic, 2D sidescroller about turning a tiny character into a wandering projectile swarm. It’s sequel mimicked the systems but switched from pixel art to 3D - and in my eyes lost a little of its readability in the process.

EnterRisk Of Rain Returns, a full remaster of the 2D original with higher resolution artwork, new survivors, and slicker multiplayer. It’s out now.

The original Risk Of Rain had multiplayer, but it was rickety, like that of many indie games from the era. Returns has “improved multiplayer services”, meanwhile, so it should be smoother to play its four-player online and couch co-op.
