New sci-fi Diablo style roguelike unveils explosive support mage class

Upcoming Steam roguelike game Gatekeeper already has my attention, and its next class looks like the most fun addition to the roster yet. Following the launch of free prequel game Gatekeeper: Infinity, this new co-op game blending the sci-fi stylings of Risk of Rain and the explosive top-down combat of Diablo 4 gives us a look at Pandora, the next addition to the list of Gatekeeper classes.

Gatekeeper is like an isometric Risk of Rain 2, so go ahead and try the free prologue




If you, like me, are basically always hungry for another fast-paced horde shooting roguelike with crazy items and combos to build, I've got great news. Upcoming roguelite shooter Gatekeeper is just that, and it has a pretty dang generous free demo slash prologue version out now that's fully-featured enough to include cooperative gameplay...

Devblog #1 - Meet Pandora!

Hello Gatekeepers!

As we get closer to the release of Gatekeeper, we've accumulated a pretty solid amount of things we'd like to share with you.

While the team is working hard on polishing the game and fixing bugs, let's talk about one of our new playable characters - Pandora.



Being a talented mage in her own world and having sacrificed herself to save her kind, she was summoned by the Creators to protect the Heart of Time.

Greatly relying on her ranged skills, Pandora is surely a burst damage character. Just have a look at those amazing abilities:

Having less HP compared to other existing gatekeepers, her additional "dash" skill creates a healing circle (teammates will definitely appreciate that).



Don't want to spoil the discovery part for you, so we hope you'll enjoy exploring other skills, their evolutions (for Eclipse players - yes, now you can evolve skills), and various kickass builds.

Pandora went a long way through design & development process, the idea was there since the very beginning and it was always about skills usage. Initially, she dealt extreme damage with long cooldowns, but watching people play, we noticed it's just boring to roam around waiting for skills to refresh. Later on we cut the cooldowns as well as skills damage, but, as we noticed during our closed playtest it eventually brought Pandora too close to our another character - Hybrid. So after several other iterations looks like the perfect balance is achieved.



Hope you folks enjoyed reading that and will enjoy playing Pandora even more!

Thank you,
Gravity Lagoon
