If 3D space shooters like Wing Commander, EVERSPACE, and Star Fox pique your interest, Rogue Eclipse might have something for you. It’s a 3D shooter roguelike with some impressive visuals. Upgrade your ship and equipment in battles against smaller starfighters and much larger warships. Roguelike difficulty will have you taking on multiple successful runs to see the full story and reach your full potential.

It needs to be said, it’s telling that games like this are being made while Nintendo just remakes Star Fox 64 over and over and claim they don’t know what to do with the series. There’s a lot of room for growth with space shooters as small indie teams like HUSKCRAFTS demonstrate. Nintendo should take notes.

Rogue Eclipse is out now for PC. Check out the launch trailer and overview below:
