The Fine Arc :

Umeå, Sweden – Nov. 26, 2024 – Cthulhu’s Reach: Devil Reef, the Lovecraftian action-roguelike co-op dungeon crawler from developer The Fine Arc, conjures up a publishing partnership with First Break Labs and crawls into Act II, available on PC via Steam Early Access Tuesday, Dec. 10, 2024. Hunt down a sweet deal while the game is 15% off in Steam’s Autumn Sale from Nov. 27 to Dec. 4.

Stuck with enormous debt and a greedy gangster to pay off, it’s time to accept misfortune and risk it all to find the hidden treasure of Devil Reef. Travel to the creepy seaside town of Innsmouth and venture deeper and deeper into the daunting unknown, where piles of gold may await… under the watchful eye of lurking eldritch horrors.

Brave mythical beasts and creatures behind each dungeon’s door by unlocking upgrades for powerful arcane scrolls and incantations ready. Journey through this horrifying space solo or with a group of up to four fellow dungeon crawlers, embracing the atmospheric soundtrack and pixel art inspired by H.P. Lovecraft and the glorious golden era of ‘90s games.

In Act II, enter the dreadful new environment of Hydra’s Hollow, filled with red-hot magma and Esoteric Priests performing dark rituals hidden in the shadows. Find new weapons by exploring new areas rife with destruction and misery. All roads lead to Mother Hydra, a horror inspired by the classic Cthulhu myth; grant her a quick end before she decimates everything in her wake.

“Embark on a treasure hunt of a lifetime, with even more content packed in each gnarly generated dungeon in Cthulhu's Reach: Devil Reef,” said Daniel Olofsson, one half of the team at The Fine Arc. “Act II will feature more ghouls, guns, and gripping gameplay, ready for a deep dive when it arrives later this December!”

Cthulhu's Reach: Devil Reef dives deeper with Act II on PC via Steam Early Access on Tuesday, December 10, 2024. Act I is available now for $9.99 USD with English language support.
