A new third-person shooter game on Steam called Armatus looks like an interesting blend of games like DOOM and Devil May Cry if they collided and formed a roguelike. Steam has many titles where players face off against demonic creatures in fast-paced action, but not all of them can be compared to games like id Software's iconic DOOM series and Capcom's beloved Devil May Cry franchise.
While it is a third-person shooter, Armatus seems to have a lot in common with recent DOOM games. The enemies have the same "straight out of hell" vibe seen in id Software's franchise, and the story premise might also sound familiar to fans of Doomguy's adventures: Armatus portrays a post-apocalyptic world that's been raided by demons and hellish creatures. Also, the protagonist in Armatus, who seemingly goes by Warrior, is as vaguely characterized as Doomguy, being described as a soldier "from an unknown realm."
Armatus takes place in a fictional post-apocalyptic Paris, which has the same gothic vibe as Devil May Cry games. Fans likely know that some games in Capcom's renowned franchise take place in a world that seems to be inspired by Western countries, and the same design philosophy appears to be shaping Armatus' universe. Moreover, the stylish weapon designs in Armatus might also remind fans of Capcom's iconic action series. Similar to DMC protagonists, the Warrior in Armatus is skilled in both melee and long-range combat, carrying a combination of firearms and a scythe at all times.
While its visual identity and some gameplay mechanics might be comparable to games like DOOM and Devil May Cry, Armatus has its own unique selling points. For one, it takes the demon-slaying formula of those games into a brand-new genre while adding high replay value through roguelike elements. Thanks to the changing combinations of weapons and power-ups, each run in Armatus can feel and play differently.
