Indie action RPG Robots at Midnight launches on January 29, 2025, for Xbox Series X|S and PC

As a seasoned gamer with a soft spot for indie titles and a penchant for souls-like RPGs, I can’t help but feel a surge of excitement upon hearing about Robots at Midnight. The first time I laid eyes on this game during Summer Game Fest, it was love at first sight – or should I say, love at first robot?

At the PC Gaming Showcase: Most Wanted 2024 event, it was announced by Finish Line Games that the indie souls-like RPG titled “Robots at Midnight” will be available to play on January 29, 2025. This game can be enjoyed on both Xbox Series X|S and PC platforms via Steam.

Earlier this summer, I had a sneak peek at Robots at Midnight during the Game Fest. It seems like an action-packed RPG with a touch of soul-like gameplay, but the combat is streamlined and the overall tone is cheerful. The main character is Zoe, a spirited young heroine who unexpectedly lands on the planet Yob inside a falling spaceship.

A new gameplay trailer can be found below, via Finish Line Games.

At Midnight Robots, you embark on an action role-playing game in which you fight against robot enemies armed with baseball bats, set in a post-apocalyptic world. The game draws inspiration from “soulslikes,” and like them, it can be quite challenging in its “Masters” mode. However, for those who are still learning the art of dodging and rolling, there’s also an easier “Hero” mode to help perfect these skills.
