Thunder Lotus Announces 33 Immortals, a Co-op Action-roguelike for 33 Players

Montreal, Canada - June 11, 2023 - Montreal-based indie developer Thunder Lotus has revealed its next project, an ambitious 33-player action-roguelike titled 33 Immortals. Announced during today’s Xbox Games Showcase, 33 Immortals invites players to “face the wrath of God” in a “lean, mean distillation of the MMO raid experience” upon its Early Access release on Epic Games Store, Xbox Series X|S, Windows PC and with Xbox Game Pass for console and PC in 2024. Fans are encouraged to sign up for the coming Beta on the developer’s website.

In 33 Immortals, players are damned souls, rebelling against God's final judgment. The game’s quick and seamless matchmaking launches 33 players into punchy co-op roguelike raids, in a radically streamlined re-imagining of the MMO experience Thunder Lotus has dubbed “pick-up and raid”. Players optimize their builds to match their playstyle, mixing and matching weapons, perks, and persistent upgrades to steadily improve their rebellion’s odds of withstanding the wrath of God. Above all, 33 Immortals actively encourages players to collaborate throughout the runs, to ensure that the largest and strongest group possible survives the enemy hordes, and prevails in the showstopping boss fights. 

33 Immortals is the debut online multiplayer title for Thunder Lotus, the studio best known for immersive single player experiences like the 2 million unit-selling Spiritfarer. To meet the unique challenges of its first foray into online games, Thunder Lotus expanded its operations to two parallel development teams, with the 33 Immortals dev team being made up of industry veterans well-versed in online multiplayer. The studio is also excited to collaborate with its always-generous community during 33 Immortals’ Beta and Early Access periods, to ensure the game builds upon its strengths through the home stretch of development.

“We can’t wait to show players what we’ve been cooking up over the past few years,” said 33 Immortals Creative Director Stephan Logier in a prepared statement. “It’s an exciting time for our studio! The 33 Immortals team is especially proud to be building on the strengths of the studio, by expanding Thunder Lotus’ immersive hand-drawn experiences onto a broader multiplayer canvas. And we feel that 33-player co-op really brings something fresh and new to the roguelike space - we hope fans will join us in Beta and Early Access to help us make the game something truly special. ”
