Shadow Gates

The release date for Shadow Gates is July 19, 2026, launching on PC. This roguelite dungeon crawler turns every failure into a mechanical advantage by allowing you to extract the shadows of fallen enemies to serve in your next run. Across five distinct biomes—from a frozen cathedral to a volcanic forge—you build a persistent army that grows stronger with every death.

The loop revolves around five specialized classes, including a backstabbing Rogue and a heavy-cleaving Knight, meant to tackle five levels of difficulty. Rather than starting from zero, you eventually command the same mobs that once ended your run, shifting the balance from survival to total dominance. It is a focused power fantasy designed for those who want a direct, scaling challenge with a clear end goal.

Add this to your wishlist if you want a roguelite where your worst losses fuel your strongest victories.
