Survivor Mercs is a twin-stick roguelike released on Steam early access in 2023. The game has since undergone lots of improvements and is ready for its official release on April 30th, 2026. It’s not just the Steam version that is being finalised, as Xbox and PlayStation will also have ports of Survivor Mercs released on the same day.

In a press statement, the developer Wolpertinger Games said. “Assemble your squad of cloned super soldiers and wage war against the evil M.E.G.A. Corp robot army! Each Merc brings their own arsenal and personal tactics to the battlefield. Call in your Merc clone reinforcements, pick their optimal specialization tree, and supercharge their combat effectiveness with hi-tech Gear to build a horde-slaying killer squad.”

Key features in Survivor Mercs:

Squad-building roguelike gameplay: Build your squad from a large roster of Mercs with unique loadouts, behavior, and specialization trees. Exploit game-breaking synergies to annihilate your oppressors in ever-changing operations.

Your Commander, your way: Control an individual Commander clone generated from over 15,000 combinations of unique Traits. Whether you play as a hawk-eyed Infiltrator, a greedy One-Man Army, or a vampiric Ninja, no two runs are alike.

Twin-stick action: Actively aim, shoot, dash, and fight alongside your Mercs with dozens of weapons and abilities across procedurally generated maps with distinct stages, mission parameters, difficulty tiers, and unique bosses.

 Tons of loot: Find dozens of powerful Gear items to modify and improve your squad each operation, and expand your Bunker HQ with rooms built from scavenged loot to unlock permanent bonuses.

Co-op chaos: Team up in couch co-op or via Steam Remote Play Together. Fully compatible with all controllers, keyboard + mouse, and verified on Steam Deck.
