Carmageddon: Rogue Shift

Carmageddon: Rogue Shift is a straightforward roguelite that sees you race around tracks using cars with unique handling properties and weapons as you blast your way through zombies and enemy racers alike as you seek victory.

In the '90s and '00s, vehicular combat games were commonplace. Franchises like Twisted Metal, Burnout, and Carmageddon were instrumental in establishing the brand of high-octane, aggressive driving that is much rarer in 2026. Though Twisted Metal and Burnout have been dormant for years, Carmageddon: Rogue Shift introduces a roguelite right turn to the genre, proving that while the vehicular combat genre often feels like a relic from a bygone era, it still has some gas left in the tank.

A roguelite, track-based take on Carmageddon’s usual zombie squashing, where skill matters less than permanent upgrades and the random weapons available in its store.
