Ravenswatch launched a limited-time free trial on October 16 at 10:00 AM PT, running until the same time on October 19. Players have access to the full roster of base game characters and can choose to play solo or in co-op with up to four players.
The game is also 50% off on Steam until October 22, with the discounted price listed as $12.49 or £10.49. The title combines fairy tale themes with roguelike gameplay, featuring combat and exploration structures that draw inspiration from Diablo, Hades, and Elden Ring: Nightreign.
Each run places objectives of varying scales across an open area. Players must earn experience, buffs, and upgrade resources through combat and missions, then face the zone boss after three day-night cycles. Playable characters are based on stories like Little Red Riding Hood, the Pied Piper, Merlin, and Pinocchio, while Romeo and Juliet feature cooperative abilities that trigger when used together.
Ravenswatch recently received a major update that adjusted over fifty hero talents and added custom lobbies. The new paid character, Kintaro, can ride a bear companion and fight alongside it. Players can use this free trial to test whether the game's co-op mechanics, character synergies, and time-limited route planning suit their team.
