Developer Resolution Games has announced roguelite dice-builder, GrimKeep, for the PlayStation 5 and PC via Steam. It will launch in 2025. More platforms will be revealed ahead of the game’s launch.
“GrimKeep is not a place for optimism,” said Resolution Games studio art director Henrik Pettersson. “This world is harsh and unforgiving. While the game at its core is a turn-based game about logic and chance, I really wanted it to be set in a ‘proper’ fantasy world that has a backstory, an underlying logic, and a consistency. Yes, you’re rolling dice and collecting items, but the visuals are hand-drawn and would also work in a visual novel or roleplaying game.”
Resolution Games CEO Tommy Palm added, “Innovation is at the core of what we do here at Resolution Games, and we’re very proud of the work we’ve done for immersive games. But there’s plenty of fun to be had outside of headsets too. When Henrik and David put the first prototype of GrimKeep in my hands, I simply couldn’t put it down. Good games should be shared with the world – whether they’re pioneering new ways to play like our recently released Spatial Ops, or they’re putting exciting new twists on familiar formulas such as roguelike deck builders.”
