Vancouver, British Columbia. February 19th, 2025—Wildkeepers Rising is spilling a big bottle of monster taming right into your cauldron of action roguelites this Steam Next Fest, and announcing their Early Access launch for March 31st, 2025! Wildkeepers combines the frenetic horde battles and addictive power-curve of a bullet heaven with the compulsive fun of a creature collector. Check out the new demo, out now on Steam, and battle alongside whimsical Guardians with hand-drawn art inspired by the great Akira Toriyama of Dragon Ball fame.



With each run, build a team of Guardians with synergies and devastating special attacks. The legacy of the Wildkeepers is at risk as their magic wanes and monsters pour across the land—complete quests across different maps, catching Guardians as you go, and discover the source of this invasion.

Key Features:

Bullet Heaven | Shred thousands of enemies by creating synergies with different tameable Guardians.
Hand-Drawn Art | Inspired by the works of Akira Toriyama (Dragon Ball), Jim Henson (The Dark Crystal), and Hayao Miyazaki (Studio Ghibli).
Creature Collector | Discover, tame, and train magical beasts, and trigger their devastating special attacks in battle!
Roguelite Progression | Unlock and acquire upgrades in your village between runs
RPG Elements | Discover a rich world of fantasy heroes and magical monsters and a tale of vengeance.
