YOGSCAST GAMES BECOMES THE UNOFFICIAL HOME OF ROGUES WITH TWO NEW BUMPER SIGNINGS

Roguelite Brain-Teaser Infinity Sweeper and Roguelite Tower Defense,

The Gate Must Stand are Signed, Sealed, and Coming in 2026

Yogscast Games is adding to its rogue collection by signing publishing deals to release Infinity Sweeper and The Gate Must Stand – both planned for release during the first half of 2026. The partnerships showcase Yogscast Games’ commitment to support solo and micro studios, offering marketing and publishing support throughout the products’ lifecycles.

“People say there are too many rogue games. We say, you can never have enough. We’re thrilled to welcome Longshot Studio to the Yogscast Games family, and we’re excited to be working again with Gamersky,” said Simon Byron, Managing Director, Yogscast Games. “From the retro-futuristic vibe of Infinity Sweeper to battling apocalyptic bosses in The Gate Must Stand, both games deliver epic experiences for players, creating moments of anticipation, tension, and the occasional thrill of victory.”

Infinity Sweeper

Minesweeping with a modern twist. From the thrill of the initial reveal, it’s a test of mastery and nerve as players remove all the safe tiles from grids without landing on a trap. Every click matters, and patience is key as the boards throw up rogue objects and bogus info to halt progress. Calming one minute, then a frantic race-against-time boss battle the next, where split-second decisions replace logic, and one wrong move could be game over.

“We are proud to partner with Yogscast Games. They understand our vision, and we feel this is a match made in heaven,” said Vidra, Founder at Longshot Studio. “We wanted to create a game that brought back memories of yesteryear, yet give it a modern twist for indie players and roguelite purists. We can’t wait to start working alongside Yogscast Games, whose passion and knowledge will prove invaluable, and we look forward to seeing players jump into the playable demo, which is available now on Steam.”

The Gate Must Stand

A roguelike tower defense game, set in a dark fantasy world where players defend the city of Belrak from invading forces. Pick a hero and battle alongside strategic deployment of follower units to protect the city’s gates. Repel enemies and harness the combined powers to launch devastating attacks, and defeat demonic bosses to earn relics and enhance abilities. Fail, and new content unlocks to aid players in their next quest. Heroes come and go, but whatever happens, The Gate Must Stand.

“We’re delighted to co-publish our third title with Yogscast Games. Their passion for Roguelike titles is unmatched. They understand our community, and we’re excited to see how they bring The Gate Must Stand to market,” said Brandon Zhang, CEO of Gamersky. “We want to create a reimagined tower defense game that keeps the player engaged and in the heart of the battle at all times. We look forward to sharing more in the coming months.”
