Raiders!

We're already on the third day of Steam Next Fest, which will continue until June 22nd.

As a reminder, our free demo is available right now, and for a limited time during the event you'll also be able to play as Nicola, our brand-new character.

But Nicola isn't the only hero available...

Alongside him, you'll be able to choose from three other unique characters, each with their own abilities, playstyles, and strategies that make every match in Raiders Rise feel fast-paced, unpredictable, and action-packed.

๐Ÿ‘€ New to Raiders Rise?

Then it's the perfect time to meet the team!

๐Ÿ’ฅ KURT

The Perfect Tank for Beginners

If you're just getting started with Raiders Rise, Kurt is the ideal choice.

His straightforward and durable playstyle makes him easy to pick up while still being incredibly effective in battle.

What makes him special?

  • ๐Ÿ”ซ Unleashes a constant stream of bullets with his machine gun.

  • ๐Ÿš€ His ultimate ability rains missiles over a massive area.

  • ๐Ÿ’ช Can withstand more punishment than anyone else.

If you're looking for firepower and reliability, Kurt has you covered.

๐Ÿงช BABA

The Grandmother Who Keeps the Team Alive

Prefer supporting your teammates from the backline?

Then Baba is the character for you.

As the team's dedicated healer, her presence can be the difference between victory and defeat.

Her strengths include:

  • โค๏ธ Healing and supporting the entire team.

  • ๐Ÿ›ก๏ธ Keeping Raiders in the fight longer.

  • โ˜ ๏ธ With the right upgrades, she can even damage enemy players.

And let's not forget...

๐Ÿ‘ต She's a grandma.

Honestly, what more could you ask for?

๐Ÿ˜ผ KATHY

Mobility, Chaos, and Massive Damage

If you enjoy fast and skill-based characters, Kathy might become your favorite.

The better you are at dodging enemy attacks, the more damage you'll be able to deal.

Why is she so dangerous?

  • โšก Exceptional mobility.

  • ๐Ÿงฑ Can pass through walls as if they weren't there.

  • ๐Ÿ’ฅ One of the highest damage potentials in the game.

  • ๐Ÿšซ With an upgraded ultimate, she can prevent the enemy team from performing key actions such as collecting crystals or opening treasure chests.

She's more challenging to master, but in the right hands, she can completely change the outcome of a match.

โšก NICOLA

The New Steam Next Fest Exclusive Character

And of course...

Nicola, the newest addition to Raiders Rise.

During Steam Next Fest you'll be able to try out his unique abilities:

  • ๐Ÿงฑ Build walls to control the battlefield.

  • โšก Fire devastating laser beams.

  • ๐ŸŽฏ Create entirely new strategies for your team.

โณ Available Only Until June 22nd

Once Steam Next Fest ends, the Nicola giveaway will no longer be available, so don't miss your chance to get your hands on this Raider!

๐Ÿš€ Gather Your Team and Join the Adventure

So what are you waiting for?

Call your friends, form your squad, and jump into the free Raiders Rise demo to play as Kurt, Baba, Kathy, or Nicola during Steam Next Fest.
