Going Under is an upcoming roguelike title from Aggro Crab Games and Team17, and it’s set in the “cursed ruins of failed tech startups.” (via PlayStation Blog).
I’m already sold. Jackie, our plucky protagonist, begins her first day of her unpaid internship in the “not-so-distant future city of Neo Cascadia.” It turns out that she’ll be battling monsters in procedurally generated dungeons—also known as tech startup basements—with only her wits and abandoned office paraphernalia. “Stab a demon with a thumbtack one moment, run over a goblin with a smart car the next—your options in combat are constantly changing,” said the developer.
INTERNSHIPS ARE HECK

As Jackie progresses through these dungeons, she’ll learn abilities and skills that will give her the edge in combat. “Will you complete your internship alive? What will you learn about the startup that hired you, and their mysterious parent company? Can you save yourself from going under… for good?” read the description from Aggro Crab Games. It sounds fantastic, right? Oh, and there’s a demo available to try on Steam today.
Going Under is coming to PC, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and Nintendo Switch in September. Watch the new trailer below.
