What is known
Until the evening of December 19, everyone can get a dark isometric game stylistically reminiscent of Diablo 4, but from a gameplay perspective more similar to one of the main indie hits of recent years — Vampire Survivors.
Jötunnslayer: Hordes of Hel left early access in September 2025 and received excellent reviews from gamers.
The game is based on images from Scandinavian mythology, and thanks to this, Jötunnslayer: Hordes of Hel looks as atmospheric as Diablo 4 but does not copy it. It is a dynamic roguelike action with survival elements, a dark style, and numerous features to help fight hordes of bloodthirsty demons.
By the way, the first game from EGS refuted The Christmas giveaway in EGS will delight gamers — among the gifts are Detroit: Become Human, Mortal Kombat 11, Terraria, and RDR2.
