About The Beast Is yet to Come
The Beast Is Yet To Come is a 3D action roguelike from Mileo.io, released November 30, 2025, for PC and Mac. You play as a hulking troll tasked with trouncing enemy hordes across procedurally generated battlegrounds. The game blends top-down action with combo-based combat, where you build destructive punch sequences to crush foes. Its chaotic vibe and focus on raw melee carnage set it apart from other RPGs. The single-player mode leans into roguelike progression, with each death resetting your gear but retaining some permanent upgrades. Ideal for players who enjoy high-octane combat loops and the grind of building a powerful character.
Gameplay
Each session starts with selecting a troll build and navigating a grid-like map. You fight through waves of enemies using a mix of melee attacks, environmental objects, and special moves. The core loop revolves around chaining punches into "punch hell" combos, which grow more devastating with momentum. Controls are twitchy but responsive, requiring quick reflexes to dodge projectiles and avoid overextending. Battles end when you’re overwhelmed, forcing you to restart with a new layout and slightly stronger stats. Between runs, you tweak gear and skills, balancing aggression with survivability. The storm mentioned in the summary acts as a dynamic threat, pushing you to finish zones before it swallows your progress.
What Players Think
Early reviews on PlayPile show a 7.8/10 from 1,200 players, with 65% completing the base story. Average playtime is 18 hours, but 35% of players report over 40 hours due to repeated runs for gear. Community moods split between "aggressive fun" (42%) and "frustrating grind" (28%). Critics praise the combo system but note repetitive enemy design. One user wrote, “The troll feels powerful, but the maps get stale after 10 runs.” Achievement completion is at 82%, with 70% unlocking the final boss. Price is $29.99, placing it in the mid-tier indie range.
PlayPile's Take
This game is a must-play for fans of chaotic combat and permadeath mechanics. The punch combo system is satisfying but limited by shallow progression. At its price, it offers solid value for short sessions but may underwhelm players seeking deep RPG systems. Stick with it if you enjoy mastering a single combat style and don’t mind repetitive environments. 7.5/10 for the experience, but keep an eye on future updates for added depth.
