ABUTTON will run a new Steam playtest for its fantasy roguelite FPS 'Guns & Dragons' from the 17th to the 23rd.
This test will introduce co-op play for up to four players. Expanding party size from the previous three-player focus, the development team plans to collect player feedback and gameplay data during the test.
A new playable character, Erin, will also be added. An elf hero living in the forest, Erin controls the battlefield using spirit flowers and wind magic. In addition, 23 bows across four categories—Elven Bow, Heavy Bow, Crossbow, and Stinger—will be introduced, expanding ranged combat and build options.
Improvements based on feedback from the first open test have also been implemented. The roguelite progression structure was adjusted to enhance the sense of growth within a single run and make build choices clearer, alongside refinements to the UI and level navigation. Combat spaces were also enlarged to accommodate mid- to long-range combat.
According to the company, over 100,000 players registered for the first open test, and Steam wishlists have also surpassed 100,000.
'Guns & Dragons' is a game where players combine firearms and bows with magic, runes, artifacts, and various upgrades to create unique weapon builds each run. It can be played solo or cooperatively with up to three friends.
The game is currently in development for Windows PC via Steam and the Epic Games Store. An official release date has not yet been announced.
