🗺️ Launch is only the beginning. We’ve got more #ChainedBeasts content planned, and we’re also listening closely to your feedback to understand what matters most to the community as we decide where to focus next. Here’s another look at our post-release roadmap. ⚔️ There’s plenty more to come. ❤️

Chained Beasts is out now on Steam, Game Pass for Xbox and Windows PC, PS5 and Nintendo Switch! Join the fray to fight chaotic battles chained to your friends in our 1-4 player gladiator roguelike ⚔️ #Chainedbeasts #roguelike #roguelite #coop #indiegames​

1 DAY TO GO ⚔️ Twelve years ago, Chained Beasts began as a 48-hour game jam project. Tomorrow, it finally enters the arena. From a small prototype to a full 1-4 player co-op gladiator roguelike, thanks to everyone who helped us bring it this far. ❤️ Chained Beasts launches October 15! #indiegame

2 DAYS TO GO ⚔️ No permanent upgrades. Slower, strategic combat. Healing that comes with a price. We wanted every run in Chained Beasts to have real stakes. Here’s the thinking behind some of our roguelike design choices. 👇 Chained Beasts launches October 15! #Chainedbeasts #roguelike #roguelite

People keep asking: “what happens after Chained Beasts launches?” Here’s our roadmap! First up: launch in 3 days (then some sleepy celebrating). Wishlist now to join the crowd of 200k+ beasts waiting to enter the arena. Get your squad ready! #Chainedbeasts #roguelike #roguelite #coop #indiegames

4 DAYS TO GO ⚔️ Need to heal? There’s always a catch. 😈 Today we’re revealing 3 new afflictions you haven’t seen in the demo yet. Which affliction from the demo has been your favourite so far? 👇 Chained Beasts launches October 15! #Chainedbeasts #roguelike #roguelite #coop #indiegames

5 DAYS TO GO ⚔️ Steam, PS5, Xbox Series X|S, Nintendo Switch or Game Pass, where will you be entering the arena? 🎮 Chained Beasts launches October 15 on all platforms. Tell us where you’ll be playing 👇 #Chainedbeasts #roguelike #roguelite #coop #indiegames

6 DAYS TO GO ⚔️ Players asked if they could throw their shields… so we made the Reckless Rhino. 🦏🛡️ Charge it up, let it fly, deal huge damage and send enemies crashing to the ground. The shield might not survive but neither will they. 😂 #Chainedbeasts #roguelike #roguelite #coop #indiegames

7 DAYS TO GO ⚔️ In Chained Beasts, healing comes at a cost. 🧪 Regain your health… but you might walk away with loss of vision, unstable footing, or even spontaneous combustion. 🔥😂 What would you risk it? Chained Beasts launches October 15. #Chainedbeasts #roguelike #roguelite #coop #indiegames

📯 8 days until Chained Beasts arrives! $12.99 USD at launch: 35% discount for first 2 weeks ⚔️ Solo, couch co-op or online 4 player co-op with crossplay 👹 9 battles, 3 acts, 10 difficulty levels 💀 70+ afflictions, 70+ skills, 8 beasts, 40+ items See you in the arena Oct 15 #Chainedbeasts

9 DAYS TO GO ⚔️ Today’s affliction: Broken Finger. Healing in Chained Beasts comes with a trade-off: regain your hearts, but take an injury or malady in return. Would you take a broken finger for a few hearts back? 😂 Chained Beasts launches October 15 on all platforms. #Chainedbeasts #indiegames

10 DAYS TO GO ⚔️ Chained Beasts launches October 15 on Steam, PS5, Xbox Series X|S, Nintendo Switch & Game Pass. 💰 Launch pricing news coming in the next few days. ❤️ Wishlist now so you’re alerted when the arena opens. #Chainedbeasts #roguelike #roguelite #coop #indiegames

What you see vs what we see. A quick behind-the-scenes look at the arena from the player’s perspective… and the developer’s. There’s a lot more going on behind the chaos than you might think. 👀 #Chainedbeasts #roguelike #roguelite #coop #indiegames

AND HIS NAME IS… GOLIATH! 😲 He hits hard. He sends you flying. And he’s probably not someone you want to make angry. 😂 Think you and your friends can take him down? Meet Goliath in Chained Beasts. #Chainedbeasts #roguelike #roguelite #coop #indiegames

Every chain changes the way you play. From balls and logs to your own teammates, every chain creates new challenges, and plenty of chaos. Can you master them all? #chainedbeasts #roguelike #coopgaming #gaming #indiegame
