Fictions and Counterplay Games announced during the PC Gaming Show 2026 that Armatus will launch in winter 2027 for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series, Xbox Game Pass, Nintendo Switch 2 and PC via Steam and the Microsoft Store.
This third‑person roguelite shooter drops players into a Paris consumed by demons and collapsing reality.
The Last Warrior of an Ancient Order
Armatus casts players as the final supernatural fighter of a forgotten order, armed with divine weapons and celestial powers.
Your mission is to carve a path through demon‑infested ruins in search of the Portal of Darkness, the last gateway to the heavens.
Paris may be the starting point, but its ruins quickly twist into nightmarish landscapes filled with grotesque monsters and escalating threats.
Humanity Has Fallen. You Have Not.
The world has ended.
Demons roam freely.
The last survivors hide behind sacred wards, believing they are the final remnants of humanity.
Their only hope is you.
But every step deeper into the Forsaken Path reveals stronger enemies and more corrupted terrain.
Fight, Die, Reborn, Repeat
Armatus embraces the roguelite loop at full force.
Each run challenges players to:
- Wield a scythe and ranged weapon
- Battle brutal demons
- Unlock celestial abilities
- Collect passive upgrades
- Push further into the city’s shifting horrors
Death is not failure.
It is knowledge.
Every fall makes you stronger for the next attempt.
Divine Power Only Grows
You begin already powerful, but Armatus keeps escalating.
Players can craft devastating builds using:
- Submachine guns
- Shotguns
- Celestial fire
- Time‑slowing abilities
- And more divine powers
The goal is to discover your perfect combination of weapons and abilities to obliterate everything in your path.
Can You Survive the Forsaken Path
Armatus challenges players to master their arsenal, adapt to ever‑changing runs and rise again after every defeat.
The question is not whether you will die.
It is whether you will return strong enough to conquer the horrors waiting beyond the ruins.
