Developer Rogue Snail and publisher Mad Mushroom announced Hell Clock will launch on June 2, 2026, for Xbox Series and PS5.
Hell Clock was first released on PC via Steam on July 22, 2025.
The developer also announced that the roguelike Action RPG will be getting its first major expansion, Cursed War, when the game comes to consoles in June.
The response to Hell Clock from ARPG and roguelike fans since launching last year has driven our team to continue building on Pajeu’s story, and we can’t wait to hear what console players think,” said Mark Venturelli, CEO of Rogue Snail and Creative Director on Hell Clock.
What Is Hell Clock?
This game is a combination of ARPG depth and roguelike speed, and a dark retelling of Brazil’s late 19th-century War of Canudos.
Play as Pajeu and descend into Purgatory and Hell, equipping Blessed Gear, Unique Relics, and powerful Skills in a fight against the demons of Brazil’s past, present, and future. The magical Hell Clock ticks, restricting how much time Pajeu can spend in the depths and reviving him each time he falls.
Cursed War Expansion Features
Here is what comes with the new Cursed War expansion:
- New Story Act – Pajeu’s campaign in Paraguay adds an all-new Act to the Hell Clock campaign.
- New Maps & Biomes to Explore – Fight through over 10 new environments, including Swamp, Blood River, and Campo Grande biomes.
- More Powerful Builds – A slew of new Skills to create devastating builds around, and dozens of new Relics to optimize them.
- Mettle-Testing Boss Fights – New areas include new bosses to take down, some of the most difficult yet faced in Hell Clock.
- New Endgame Systems – Extend the adventure even further with new Endgame Systems to truly test your build: Endless Nightmares and the full version of Ascension.
- Another Chance to Rewrite History: More Brazilian History – Cursed War continues Hell Clock’s tradition of exploring one of the darker times in real Brazilian history, with a prequel story around Pajeu’s part in a dark fantasy version of the Paraguayan War.
