Just Like A Phoenix! Supercell Announces Project R.I.S.E. From The Ashes Of Clash Heroes

Finnish game developer Supercell has made a surprising announcement. Following the cancellation of their RPG, Clash Heroes, they've revealed a successor: Project R.I.S.E. This isn't simply a relaunch; it's a complete reimagining.

The Full Story

Clash Heroes is officially defunct. Confirming earlier rumors, Supercell has shelved the title, mirroring the fate of Clash Mini. However, the Clash universe isn't losing this concept entirely. Project R.I.S.E., a social action RPG roguelite, will inherit the spirit of Clash Heroes.

Supercell's announcement video features game lead Julien Le Cadre, who frankly states, "Clash Heroes is dead. That's the bad news," before adding, "The good news is that Project R.I.S.E. is still a Clash game, and the better news is that it’s now a multiplayer-focused action RPG."

For more details, watch the video below:

Project R.I.S.E. shares DNA with Clash Heroes but is a distinct creation. It's a social action RPG roguelite built from the ground up.

Gameplay involves three-player teams exploring "The Tower," a mysterious location. Each session covers a different floor, with the objective of reaching the highest level possible. Unlike its predecessor, the emphasis is on cooperative multiplayer, moving away from solo PvE dungeons.

Currently in pre-alpha, Project R.I.S.E. is slated for its first playtest in early July 2024. Registration for a chance to participate is open on the official website.
