The action RPG roguelike genre has become saturated with fantastic games on Steam, and fans of these types of games have a new entry to look forward to on August 20. Ever since the original Hades took the world by storm in 2020, Steam has been filled with roguelikes trying to recapture its same stylish vibe and smooth action gameplay. Last year's Hades 2 upped the ante for the genre, and now a new game is looking to follow in its footsteps.
Grim Trials comes from developer Glory Jam, which has already released several games on Steam to generally Very Positive reviews. The Hades inspirations are worn on Grim Trials's sleeve, as players are tasked with slaying demons in the underworld as part of their training to become a new Grim Reaper. Between its action roguelike gameplay and colorful cast of characters, Grim Trials looks to be the perfect title for players looking for more games like Hades 2.
Grim Trials releases on August 20, 2026.
An ultra-violent new Steam co-op game is releasing on July 30, and it looks like a cursed mash-up of Saw and Mario Party mini-games.
Prove your worth. Hack and blast...
