The Pit: Infinity (v1.2.2.8932 & ALL DLC)

A hostile science-fiction labyrinth turns every supply crate, sealed door, and shadowy corridor into a risk calculation. The Pit: Infinity blends first-person shooting with RPG growth and roguelike permadeath, sending a squad of specialists into a sprawling experimental facility filled with alien life and malfunctioning machines. Its tone is tense and unforgiving rather than heroic: survival depends as much on conserving ammunition and choosing routes as it does on hitting targets. Death is permanent, so even a successful run can collapse after one reckless push into an unfamiliar chamber.

Players choose between the combat-focused Marine, agile Scout, and technically minded Engineer, each arriving with distinct attributes, skills, and starting equipment. Runs revolve around descending through procedurally assembled floors, clearing hostile rooms, scavenging loot, unlocking access points, and deciding whether scarce resources are worth spending now or saved for a deeper level. Enemies provide experience, allowing characters to improve their abilities as the dungeon’s threats become tougher and less forgiving. Components found during exploration feed into crafting, giving a valuable way to turn junk, supplies, and recovered technology into gear that may keep a run alive. Solo play suits careful, methodical scavengers, while cooperative play supports up to four players and lets a team combine class strengths while sharing the danger.

Its strongest idea is the marriage of a dungeon-crawling loot loop with direct FPS movement and the pressure of roguelike stakes. Randomized halls, rooms, and biomes prevent players from memorizing a single safe route, while locked areas and treasure caches constantly tempt them to gamble on further exploration. The result feels closer to a compact, systems-driven survival crawl than a scripted campaign, with every descent creating its own story of improvisation, dwindling supplies, and abrupt disaster. Fans of roguelikes who want shooting, character builds, crafting, and co-op tension should find plenty to like, while newcomers should expect a demanding learning curve and accept that failure is part of the design.
