Graybeard Games today announced that It Lurks Below, a passion project developed entirely by Diablo creator David Brevik, is now available on Steam for PC for $19.99 USD.
Combining many staples of his earlier work, It Lurks Below is an action-oriented survival-RPG with eight character classes, deep randomization, and a retro side-view player perspective – all set in a world ravaged by a demon invasion.
“It Lurks Below has been in development for several years now, and I’m delighted to put this eagerly-awaited product into hands of gamers. I wake up every day excited to be working on this game and now I get to share it with the world,” said Brevik, whose last major launch was Marvel Heroes in 2013 when he led Gazillion Entertainment.
Titles such as Brevik’s own Diablo inspired the role-playing mechanics while Terraria, Minecraft, and Starbound inspired the view and survival elements of this action-packed RPG. These aspects come together as a wholly new game experience. Players select a custom character and class, then delve deep into the mysteries of what evil lurks below; exploring subterranean levels, acquiring items and encountering deadly monsters in this highly-replayable game.
Released in Early Access last April, the game has consistently received positive early reviews and feedback, with some players in the close-knit community logging hundreds of hours of playtime. Brevik has spent the last year listening to the community and fine-tuning the game while adding more content. For him, community involvement was essential.
Fans can keep check out It Lurks Below’s Twitch page for streams from Brevik, which he’ll continue to conduct regularly, and from others enjoying the game’s release as they lead their fully=customizable heroes through randomly generated underground dungeons full of endless evil.
