Industry analysts at NPD Group tracked 34% year-over-year growth in the Roguelike Deck-builder category. The growth is attributed to a combination of strong post-launch updates and crossplay rollout, though analysts caution against extrapolating to other genres.
In a brief statement released this morning, Daniel Mullins Games confirmed that work on their next title is underway. The studio declined to give a release window beyond '2025 or later,' but characters the project as 'a step sideways' from their previous work.
The Game Awards opened with a slate of Roguelike Deck-builder announcements. Three were already known; two were genuine surprises; one — from a studio with no prior public profile — drew the loudest crowd reaction of the day.
