RALEIGH, N.C.— March 17, 2025 — Villain Games HQ is thrilled to unveil Hero’s Hand, a genre-bending roguelike RPG fueled by poker-inspired puzzle combat, coming to PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, Nintendo Switch and PC via Steam in 2026. Travel through beautiful hand-drawn environments, gather cards to build a poker hand, and take down enemies inspired by Dungeons & Dragons as you level up, collect items, and grow stronger with each run.

“When we first scribbled ‘poker-based RPG’ on a whiteboard back in 2019, we never expected it to spark such hilarious chaos,” said Randy Greenback, Creative Director at Villain Games. “But once our prototype had the team howling over insane card combos, we knew Hero’s Hand had to become a reality. Getting to relaunch Villain with the passion we have for this game is definitely next level!”

When darkness takes over Cardunia, it’s up to you to solve its mysteries, confront the evil, and find a way to bring back peace to the world. Along the way, you’ll explore the lands, meet new friends, find ancient weapons, cast spells, use potions, and die in combat… a lot! With each run, you’ll grow stronger, master your skills and eventually tear through monsters to take on the Dark Wizard.

Poker Meets Dungeon-Crawling

Hero’s Hand challenges you to strategically move across each board, grabbing cards to form flushes, straights, or four-of-a-kind combos for massive damage. Whether you’re using overpowered Fortune Items, upgrading your loadout, or weaving together synergy from potions and spells, you’ll forge your own path through random encounters and ever-tougher enemies.

Key Features

• Roguelike Adventure & Narrative: Journey across eight uniquely themed worlds, battle your way through Death’s Tower, and grow stronger each time you fall. A layered story unfolds through comedic encounters and sub-boss showdowns.
• Poker-Based Combat: Build your poker hand on the fly by moving about the board to collect cards for devastating combos. Cleverly use spells, potions, and the wheel of Fortuna to amplify your poker hands and tip the odds in your favor.
• Endless Replayability: Explore procedurally generated maps, face unpredictable events, and discover secret portals teeming with new challenges. No two runs are ever the same.
• Menagerie of Mayhem: Brace yourself for an outrageous cast of Dungeons & Dragons-inspired baddies — from trollish brutes to flamboyant dragons. Each monstrous misfit boasts unique attacks and cunning board effects guaranteed to keep your hero on his toes.
• Fortune Favors the Overkill: Defeat enemies to earn XP, gold and items, and gather rare equipment to outfit your hero for bigger and bolder combos on subsequent runs.

This update comes alongside the game’s recently launched Kickstarter campaign, featuring both digital and custom physical rewards.

Angouleme, France, March 17, 2025 | Indie development studio Headbang Club has pushed a major update to the demo of their JRPG-inspired tactical roguelite, DeathTower, introducing an in-game hub town for all your preparatory needs. The game has plans to release on Steam, Nintendo Switch, and PlayStation 5. With their Kickstarter campaign ongoing until April 8th, the studio invites new and returning players to experience a taste of what’s planned for the game through the updated demo on Steam.

A Tactical Roguelite for All 

In this 2.5D isometric roguelite tactical RPG, join Ikarus, a humble machine operator, on his journey to uncover the mysteries behind the Megaryon—a never-ending megastructure tower plagued by a deadly parasite outbreak. As you climb the tower, combine stealthy infiltration and an arsenal of devastating weapons to reach your objective. A combative approach uses weapons, grenades, and ammunition to clear floors, while stealthy players can use environmental structures and resources to avoid notice. Four diverse biomes compose this tower, with numerous floors scattered throughout. Fight through each floor’s threats, use hacks in the tower’s programming to amplify your abilities and summon assists, or fall in battle and restart your run from the beginning.

New Demo, New Allies

In the demo update, players will unlock the new Erebus Game Hub after completing the tutorial, which features pixel-art venues and a fresh cast of characters, ready to share helpful hints. Within the Hub, players can visit the Starter Shop for items and weapons, or crimp upgrades to power themselves up between runs. Highly customizable, the demo showcases over fifty different weapons, thirteen unique tower hacks, and two fluid class trees, less than half of the total options planned for the full game. Headbang Club is excited for everyone to experience the world of possibilities in DeathTower and encourages curious players to give the demo a try! Experience the first hour of DeathTower’s opening act, explore the initial few floors, and try out a fraction of what’s to come in the demo’s first epic boss battle.

Don’t Miss Out on Exclusive merch!

The DeathTower Kickstarter campaign is live, and interested players are invited to participate. Headbang Club aims to reach its fundraising goals to allow them to self-publish the game. Backers can support the launch for as little as $9 USD for exclusive DeathTower HD wallpapers and emotes. Additional rewards are available for those who wish to contribute more, including digital rewards such as art books, the OST, and keys to the game. Physical rewards include T-shirts, Vinyls, physical editions, and more. The Kickstarter will end April 8th.

Planned Full Game Features:

• 6 playable characters are waiting to be unlocked as you ascend the tower and explore the game’s different biomes.
• 30 enemy types boast unique characteristics depending on their environment and class type.
• 10 mini bosses necessitate skill expansions and combat expertise to defeat and climb to the next level.
• 120 unlockable weapons, ranging from grenades to laser guns, let each player hone their perfect kit.
• 75 hacks in the megastructure’s operations system can be programmed to attack, defend, manipulate the battlefield and summon terrifying creatures.
• 10 fluid class trees, comprising a total of 75 skills, can be combined to create a well-rounded party.

Back the DeathTower Kickstarter to help the studio meet its fundraising goal. The game’s demo is available for download on Steam.
