by

Radical Theory Publishing and Rever Games revealed Clockfall, a roguelite action RPG, is coming to PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, and PC. The game will initially release as an Early Access title on Steam in 2026.

Here is an overview of the game, via Radical Theory:

About

Your village has been destroyed, and now you’re trapped in a never-ending nightmare. A strange clock has appeared among the ruins, forcing you to repeatedly experience the tragic events of the past. Each time, you have limited time, and the cycle always resets. Can you break this loop and change the fate of your people?

Escape the Nightmare Before the Clock Hits Zero

In Clockfall, players find themselves trapped in a never-ending, terrifying cycle. They’ll need to battle through dangerous dungeons, defeat powerful enemies, and overcome massive bosses to break free.

Simply being strong won’t get you far here. Time is critical, and every moment spent in the dungeon matters. If players want to explore further and find their way out, they’ll have to make difficult decisions.

  • Invest resources to upgrade combat stats.
  • Sacrifice immediate progress to “buy” extra time.
  • Optimize every movement to reach the depths of the nightmare before the fatal end.

A Strategic Twist: The Village Defense Phase

What makes Clockfall unique is its combination of fast-paced exploration and challenging moments where you defend a village. These two parts create a dynamic and exciting experience.

All the rewards you earn while exploring dungeons – like resources, upgrades, and experience – are crucial for defending your settlement. As enemies get stronger and attack in larger waves, your success in protecting your home unlocks permanent improvements like better stats, weapons, spells, and bonuses. These upgrades are essential for becoming more powerful, progressing further, and ultimately escaping the time loop.

Master the Clock, Break the Loop

Time is running out! Explore the depths of your past and battle the forces of fate in quick, intense combat. Learn the land, collect resources, and unlock powerful tools to defend your village from an impending invasion.

Grow stronger and rejoin the battle against Destiny to protect your village. The longer you survive, the more you’ll earn – either lasting time advantages or powerful new abilities.

Time is your most valuable asset, but a strong attack power is equally important. Every decision you make will shape your character and how you play. You’ll need to find the right balance between managing time and increasing your strength. By skillfully combining exploring dangerous dungeons with defending your village, you can finally break free from this endless cycle and save your people.
