The Hero's Party Has Been Wiped Out Sets November 10 Release

Death Kumiai is developing and Flashlight Games is publishing The Hero's Party Has Been Wiped Out, a turn-based roguelite RPG now set to launch on November 10, 2026 for PC via Steam. The game was originally planned for July 22, 2026, and the delay was attributed to time needed to improve the overall feel and adjust battle balance. The price is undecided. In the game, the player is the lone survivor of a rescue team sent after a hero's party that went missing in a dungeon. The player finds four members, each broken in a different way, and chooses one as a partner to escape with. Combat is a turn-based card battle where items in hand become cards with limited uses. A demo playable up to the first boss, the Exile, with all four partners selectable, is scheduled for release soon, alongside a new trailer marking the release date announcement.

The game carries over 150,000 Steam wishlist registrations, a figure the press release cites alongside the new date. The announcement came on October 7, 2026, with a trailer showing full-game illustrations and dungeon footage.

  • The "Hero," who has lost words and can only manage "yes" or "no."
  • The "Mage," who has lost her magic power; giving her the Flame Staff deals zero damage.
  • The "Warrior," whose soul resides in a doll, leaving the body behind.
  • The "Priest," who has abandoned faith for an evil god.

Each partner has a fully independent route with multiple endings, about 6 hours per route across four routes. Combat uses two selectable styles: "Conviction and Will," fought with timing inputs, and "Choice and Fate," fought with probability. Neither affects the story.

Enemies announce their next action in advance. Breaking an enemy's stance and landing a weapon's "last use" triggers a fatal blow that kills instantly and steals equipment. Shattering items generates "curses," a stacking resource that can nullify traps or bad roulette draws and, on death, builds wanted items or converts to experience; players retry from the floor they fell on.

The game has over 400,000 characters of text and more than 400 individually drawn illustrations, with Japanese, Simplified Chinese, and English supported. Over 100 weapon and item types appear, changing as the game progresses.
