Rift Of The NecroDancer Reveal With New Gameplay Trailer

For many, Crypt of the NecroDancer was a unique spin on the dungeon crawler subgenre as it brings a more literal spin on music and how it plays with the game. Even more is when Brace Yourself Games announced Cadence of Hyrule: Crypt of the NecroDancer – an official Nintendo licensed take on the approach.

The game went on to receive three official post-launch add-ons which only expanded the release for fans still hungry for more. But what of the property? Surely there is a franchise that can be made of Crypt of the NecroDancer. Well, Brace Yourself Games recently announced Rift of the NecroDancer. However, no details were shared then.

But this week a reveal trailer was uploaded sharing the new gameplay coming to this standalone experience. You can watch the full trailer in the video below:

“The NecroDancer’s back in a brand new rhythm game spinoff! Help Cadence navigate the modern world while repairing the rifts that have torn her life apart. Do rhythmic battle via rift mode, minigames, and boss battles! All to the beat of a brand new soundtrack from Danny Baranowsky & friends,” the description on the Steam reads for the game.

The game is also said to include three game types: “Rift Mode — A rhythmic battle against streams of monsters pouring out of the Rift!, Mini Game Mode — Help Cadence overcome the challenges of the modern world via rhythmic mini games!, and Boss Battles Mode — Defeat powerful bosses using a one-two punch, to the rhythm of the beat!”
