ChaosForge have released a new update for their turn-based roguelike, Jupiter Hell.

The Masters Update adds 15 new master traits divided among the game’s three classes (Marine, Scout, and Technician). There are also six new uncommon weapons, the chain gun having a new spool up mechanic, graphical and UI enhancements, and major balance tweaks. You can read more about the update here.

You can find an abriged rundown of the game (via Steam) below:

Jupiter Hell is a classic, turn-based roguelike set in a 90’s flavored sci-fi universe. Set on the moons of Jupiter, the game pits a lone space marine against overwhelming demonic forces. Rip and tear zombies, demons and unmentionable monstrosities, using classic weaponry such as shotguns, chainguns, railguns and the trusty chainsaw. All to the shine of CRT monitors and the tune of heavy metal!

LIKE CHESS. WITH SHOTGUNS.

Tactical, turn-based combat with real-time responsiveness
Benefit from classic roguelike turns with modern shooter sensibilities. Controls are immediate and accessible while retaining the back-end depth of a turn-based RPG.

Meaningful RPG progression
Customize your character with new weapons, items and abilities gained as you progress through a permadeath-prone hell. Beat the game to unlock more difficult challenges rather than grinding to make the game easier.

Randomized levels set all over Jupiter’s orbit
Blast through procedurally-generated civilian sectors, military space bases and mining colonies on the violent moons of Jupiter. Every playthrough you’ll find new ways to experience familiar settings.

Original shooter roguelike lineage
Jupiter Hell is built by ChaosForge, the team that’s been making top-down, cosmic hell roguelikes since 2002.

Jupiter Hell is in Early Access for Windows PC, Linux, and Mac (all via GOG, and Steam).
