Indie Pokémon-Like Coromon Gets Roguelite Spin-Off; Out Next Year

Indie game Coromon has been getting a bit of buzz since its release for being a legit Pokémon-like role-playing game while being its own game, flavour and all. Now, developer TRAGsoft is taking a page from the Pokémon Company’s book: make spin-offs.

The company, along with publisher indie.io, will do just that with its spin-off title Coromon: Rogue Planet. As you can tell from the title, it’s a roguelite title with tiles and turn-based action; you choose your starter Coromon, upgrade your gear, then battle through the galaxy’s many forest and wilderness locations.

Coromon: Rogue Planet combines the rich strategy of tactical turn-based combat from Coromon with strategic roguelite gameplay to create an endlessly-replayable Monster Taming gameplay experience.

Coromon: Rogue Planet will be out in 2025 for PC, Nintendo Switch, iOS, and Android. Check out the trailer and feature list below.
