Scaravan 66, a new car-combat roguelike from Lithic Entertainment, is gearing up for a demo release on Steam starting February 24, 2025. The game immerses players in a chaotic, 1950s greaser and 1980s punk rock-themed underworld, where they take on the role of Lucky D, a rebellious Road Reaper.
In this fast-paced title, players must navigate through hell while avoiding the Devil’s minions, which include explosive zombies and armed lycanthropes. Each gameplay loop presents opportunities for upgrades and unique interactions with fellow Road Reapers, enhancing both combat and survivability.
Gameplay Mechanics
Scaravan 66 employs a third-person perspective, allowing players to maintain situational awareness on the road. The twin-stick controls facilitate simultaneous driving, aiming, and shooting, which adds to the game’s intensity. Players can customize their builds with various weapons and perks, adapting strategies based on the random elements typical of roguelikes.
Biomes and Boss Battles
The game features three distinct biomes: the woods, the desert, and a coastal area. Each biome offers unique challenges and environments, culminating in memorable boss battles. Although the demo did not showcase these elements, they promise to enhance the overall experience in the full game.
Future Release
Scaravan 66 is set to launch for PC in 2025, with the demo available during Steam Next Fest. As players gear up for this thrilling escape from Hell, the combination of engaging gameplay and thematic depth positions Scaravan 66 as a title to watch in the upcoming year.
