Dark Machine Games, in collaboration with DreadXP, is excited to announce that their latest creation, White Knuckle, will make its debut on Steam Early Access on April 17th. This gripping speed-climbing horror roguelite promises an adrenaline-fueled adventure for gamers who dare to take on the terrifying vertical ascent of SUB-STRUCTURE 17.
Initially, players will get the opportunity to explore the daunting depths of the first three regions within this decrepit underground megacomplex. The game demands players utilize precise movements, quick reflexes, and keen resource management to scale the structure’s heights. With numerous gameplay modes, each offers its unique set of challenges ranging from deadly traps and hazardous gaps to deteriorating walls and menacing creatures lurking in the shadows.
This unique gameplay experience allows climbers to locate helpful tools during their ascent. However, players must carefully consider what to carry, as an overloaded inventory will impede movement and may prove fatal during crucial moments. To aid in overcoming the obstacles, White Knuckle offers unlockable augmentations. These enhancements improve various player traits such as jump height, climbing speed, and stamina, providing strategic advantages as players adapt to the escalating challenges.
For those eager to dive into the chilling climbs, a demo is currently available on Steam. This demo offers a taste of the thrilling mechanics and allows players to refine their climbing skills ahead of the official Early Access launch.
As anticipation builds, players worldwide are preparing to equip themselves for the perilous ascension that awaits. Follow updates from Dark Machine Games and DreadXP as they continue to develop a horror roguelite experience that pushes the boundaries of rapid decision-making and survival skills.
