Key highlight

Who this is for

A fresh take on the action roguelike genre with a brainchip twist. If you enjoy FPS combat and procedural runs, this Early Access title is worth watching.

Details

Overview

Horns of Deliverance is a fast-paced action roguelike FPS from developer and publisher schemesmith, released into Early Access on October 12, 2026. The game drops you into a first-person combat loop where your own brainchip—a piece of tech that should be helping you—has turned against you.

With grounded gunplay and procedurally generated levels, each run asks you to push forward while managing a hostile implant that is actively trying to kill you.

Highlights

Brainchip mechanics: Your health diagnostics and alerts are displayed via the chip, but it's also your primary antagonist, creating a constant tension between using its data and resisting its sabotage.
Psychoactive substances: Consuming these in-game items interferes with the brainchip, granting wild effects that can turn the tide—but likely at a cost.
Roguelike structure: Procedural level generation, varied enemies, and equipment upgrades between levels keep runs fresh and encourage experimentation.
Early Access title: Currently in Early Access, so expect ongoing development and potential changes based on player feedback.

Who It's For

If you enjoy action roguelikes with a strong FPS core—think fast movement, tight gunplay, and runs that change every time—Horns of Deliverance is worth a look. The psychedelic visual style and themes of mental illness, substance use, and violence give it a distinct edge, but they also mean it's not for everyone.

Players who appreciate narrative-driven mechanics that mess with your expectations will find plenty to dig into.
