RIG Riot is out on PC via Steam, released September 15, 2026 by solo developer Sage Boatman. Post-launch updates have focused on bug fixes and balance adjustments, with localization, Steam Workshop support and co-op still planned.
RIG Riot is a third-person mech action shooter with roguelike runs from developer Sage Boatman, who handles the project alone. Players build a customizable mech called a RIG, fight increasingly strong enemies across runs, level up, and pick weapons and Volatile Mods. Parts collected in defeat can be checked in the garage. The game launched on PC via Steam on September 15, 2026, and the earlier announcement of a September 14 launch via Steam was followed by the September 15 release date. A demo was available on Steam and itch.io, and a closed beta test was planned with testers recruited on the official Discord server.
Release brought the full game to Steam at 2,600 yen, with a 10% discount until September 29. Several updates followed, each with bug fixes and balance adjustments. Boatman's stated order of work puts bug fixes first, with multilingual localization, Steam Workshop support and co-op planned afterward. The roadmap depends on whether one developer can add those three features on top of a fix-first schedule.
