Key artwork for Bloodshed – a retro-style FPS roguelite game

Bloodshed Launches on Steam: A Retro Roguelite FPS Adventure

Posted on December 12, 2024June 30, 2025 By Ronny Fiksdahl

The gaming landscape just got a thrilling boost with today’s launch of Bloodshed on Steam. This retro-inspired Roguelite blends the visual grit of classic shooters with the intensity of modern gameplay mechanics. It throws players into a nightmarish world where strategy, reflexes, and survival instincts are your only allies.

A Gauntlet of Undead and Cultist Terror

Bloodshed doesn’t pull its punches. You’re not just fending off zombies; you’re facing tactical cultists, demonic fiends, and wave after wave of escalating chaos. Every run presents new surprises, thanks to procedurally generated levels and an ever-evolving threat level. From sewers to shrines, every environment is steeped in danger.

Character Variety Means Strategy Variety

Each character brings unique perks and abilities. Want to play as a brute force tank? Or a fast-moving glass cannon? The choice is yours—and it deeply affects how you approach each encounter. With upgrade paths and unlocks, replayability stays high even after dozens of runs.

Standout Features

  • Retro-style visuals with modern FPS fluidity
  • Roguelite structure with perma-death and upgrade systems
  • Unique characters and customizable loadouts
  • Swarming enemies with smart AI and environmental hazards
  • Soundtrack that drives the pace and mood of every level

The Cult Awakens—And You’re All That Stands in Their Way

At the heart of Bloodshed is a sinister plot: a cult determined to resurrect an ancient evil. With every run, you inch closer to unraveling the truth behind this doomsday agenda. But every death is just a step backward—so you’ll need grit, skill, and the will to survive to see the end.
