Just Like A Phoenix! Supercell Announces Project R.I.S.E. From The Ashes Of Clash Heroes

Finnish game developer Supercell has made a surprising announcement. Following the cancellation of their RPG, Clash Heroes, they've revealed a successor: Project R.I.S.E. This isn't simply a relaunch; it's a completely new game.

The Full Story

Clash Heroes is officially discontinued. Confirming earlier speculation, Supercell has shelved the title, much like its previous project, Clash Mini. However, Project R.I.S.E. will effectively serve as a spiritual successor, offering a social action RPG roguelite experience within the familiar Clash universe.

Supercell's announcement video features game lead Julien Le Cadre, who frankly stated, "Clash Heroes is dead. That's the bad news," adding, "The good news is that Project R.I.S.E. is still a Clash game, and even better news is that it's now a multiplayer-focused action RPG."

For a detailed overview, watch the video:

Project R.I.S.E. shares similarities with Clash Heroes but is a distinct creation. It's a social action RPG roguelite built from the ground up.

Gameplay involves three-player teams exploring "The Tower," a mysterious location. Each playthrough covers a different floor, with the objective of ascending as high as possible. Unlike its predecessor, the emphasis is on cooperative gameplay with diverse characters, rather than solo PvE dungeon crawling.

Currently in pre-alpha, Project R.I.S.E. is scheduled for its first playtest in early July 2024. Registration is open on the official website for a chance to participate.
