Section 13

Section 13 is a roguelite twin-stick shooter set in a secret paranormal containment facility. You play as an Agent of the S2P Corporation, investigating a crisis at the company’s most secret site and uncovering what its paranormal entities have to do with you. Play solo or in a group of up to three players; crossplay is not supported.

Agents and mysteries

Agents Red, Boy Scout, Beaker and Scalpel fight to uncover Section 13’s buried secrets while investigating personal mysteries of their own. You collect data on paranormal entities that have escaped containment and work to get to the bottom of an Omega-level breach that has locked down the black-site.

Fight through the facility

As you push deeper into the base, you face unique hazards, hungry monsters and a series of shifting levels. Time your dodge-rolls and reloads to stay ahead of enemies, use special abilities when you are cornered, or take up a melee weapon and fight your way out. Keep watch on your Fear level, since it can trigger a debilitating panic attack mid-mission.

Play solo or in a squad

You can tackle missions alone or with up to two squad-mates. Friendly fire is optional, letting you choose whether it is enabled during a run.

Tools and upgrades

Unlock and customize weapons, use gameplay-altering Synaptic Enhancements, and undergo genetic modification, which can have side effects. Special abilities and tactical items help you outsmart cryptids and navigate the facility. Between deaths, persistent upgrades change how you play and your chances of success.
