Nightmare Reaper is a retro-inspired first-person roguelike with a pulsating metal soundtrack and gore by the gallon. Originally released in March for PC, Nightmare Reaper is "coming soon" to PS5 and PS4.
Harkening back to the glory days of the Wolfenstein and Doom franchises, Nightmare Reaper features an OST by composer Andrew Hulshult, perhaps best known for his incredible work on Doom: Eternal. An impressive 80 unique weapons are available, with more than 30 enchantments that can further add to the random nature of every encounter.
This grimdark shooter currently enjoys very favourable reviews on Steam, so it looks like old-school shooter fans are in for a real treat when this one comes to console. What do you think of Nightmare Reaper? Will you be picking it up when it does make the jump to PlayStation? Start blasting away in the comments section below.

This game looks awesome! I love these modern retro FPS games, with Dusk, Project Warlock and Ion Fury immediately come to mind.
@BlackMayge Prodeus out this week also, check that one out 😉
I understand it is probably easier and cheaper to make, with little need for actual artistic vision, but I really do dislike this trend for, shall we say, 8-bit graphics. And I’m definitely from a time when this was how every game looked. Unfortunately I just don’t think I can look past this, it literally confuses my eyes a lot of the time if there is a lot going on like here.
@thefourfoldroot1 if the retro 8 bit style is done right then i quite like it (dead cells,blasphemous etc) but this looks like it would give me a migrane inside of 15 mins..prodeus looks interesting but its a pass for me too..
@Northern_munkey
Agreed. I'd rather have the devs make the games in an old engine and get that working. These always look too oddball to me and this one looks way too busy.
