Dungeons of Eternity

Dungeons of Eternity is a cooperative roguelite dungeon crawler from studio Othergate that lets up to four players on Quest explore procedurally generated dungeons full of monsters, traps, and treasure together. Each run offers a different combination of rooms, enemies, and rewards, so the game never repeats itself in quite the same way, and after a character's death the player starts over with part of the equipment, gold, and experience gathered, carried between expeditions into permanent upgrades to their character and base.

The combat system is purely physical — swords, crossbows, shields, and magic staves react to actual hand movement, ammunition must be physically reloaded, and cooperation within the team requires real coordination in covering teammates, healing, and dividing roles between front-line attackers and support or ranged characters in the back. Visually the title relies on a stylized, somewhat cartoonish fantasy look and dark, atmospheric dungeon lighting with torches and fog, which also handles well on the more limited performance of the mobile chip in the Quest headset without having to significantly compromise the overall atmosphere. Between expeditions players can upgrade their equipment at the home base and unlock new weapons to take into the next, increasingly difficult dungeons.

After its 2023 release the game was praised especially for its excellent replayability, satisfying weapon feel, and fun cooperation with friends, which quickly placed it among the platform's favorite multiplayer titles. Dungeons of Eternity shows how well a physical combat system and roguelite structure work together when a game is built from the ground up primarily for a shared multiplayer experience, and it remains a popular choice for regular game nights with friends, where each dungeon run becomes its own small story of what worked and what didn't.

Why play: For groups of friends looking for regular game nights with a satisfying physical combat system and roguelite structure built from the ground up for a shared multiplayer experience.
