The co-op sci-fi bullet-hell roguelite MineGeon: Renegades has received a substantial update to its Steam Next Fest demo, giving players a deeper look at the action-packed adventure ahead of its full launch on July 14.
Developed by Kickstone Studio, MineGeon: Renegades sends players beneath the surface of the planet PAIMO in search of treasure, powerful upgrades, and long-buried secrets. Blending cooperative gameplay with roguelite progression and intense bullet-hell combat, the game challenges players to survive increasingly dangerous expeditions while building stronger characters and uncovering new rewards.
The latest demo update introduces a variety of new features and content, significantly expanding the experience available during Steam Next Fest. Players can now take control of Marshall, a brand-new tank-focused class built around durability and close-range combat. Marshall’s unique Ultimate ability allows him to unleash devastating hand-to-hand attacks, offering a fresh playstyle for teams tackling the dangers below.
Exploration has also become more dangerous with the arrival of three new mini-bosses known as the Scavengers. These formidable foes introduce additional combat challenges and require players to adapt their strategies as they progress deeper into the MineGeon.
To further enhance character builds, the demo adds new Gadgets, Ultimates, and Enhancements. These additions provide more customization options, allowing players to experiment with different combat strategies and discover powerful synergies during each run.
Outside of combat, players can now access the ship’s basement and take advantage of new base customization features. Decorative props can be purchased and placed to personalize the hub area between expeditions, adding another layer of progression beyond combat upgrades.
The update also introduces a new cooking system. Ingredients gathered throughout the MineGeon can be used to prepare meals that grant valuable buffs, giving players additional ways to strengthen their characters before setting out on their next mission.
With new enemies, progression systems, customization options, and gameplay mechanics now available, the expanded Steam Next Fest demo offers a much more comprehensive preview of what players can expect when MineGeon: Renegades launches on July 14.
