Deadzone: Rogue gets offline mode and new mission

Deadzone: Rogue is now in Early Access, bringing fast-paced roguelite elements to a classic first-person shooter experience. Yet another update has gone live in Deadzone: Rogue as the developers continue to respond to community feedback.

An offline mode has arrived which allows fans to play Deadzone: Rogue singleplayer without an internet connection. According to Prophecy Games, this was the number one requested feature and the team managed to ship it just days after Deadzone: Rogue launched.

As for the new mission, this goes by the name of Uniform Chaos II and each room randomly spawns a horde of the same type of enemies to defeat. Essentially, it builds on the Uniform Chaos I mission, offering an even deeper level of enemy variety and a greater challenge in both solo and co-op modes.
