Runix: Pinball Roguelike Demo Announced

Pinball is one of the most popular game genres, spanning arcades and console and PC titles. With the long-lasting adoration of pinball and the relatively new passion for roguelike experiences, a new game on the way aims to capitalize on fans of both. Ahead of its release in 2026, Runix: Pinball Roguelike is launching a demo on Steam soon, hoping to show fans what to expect when the full release hits virtual shelves later this year. Here’s what we know about the game.

Meteor Forge has announced that Runix: Pinball Roguelike will release a demo for the genre-bending game on February 20, 2026. Runix promises to feature a new experience every run, thanks to popular roguelike mechanics like crafting a collection of balls in a deck-like system that allows you to capture powerful combos with timing the different effects strategically. Balls and artifacts to create explosive combinations and high-risk, high-reward gameplay moments. As players progress, they will strengthen their mage powers and work to restore The Pinball Order, unlocking new possibilities and pushing deeper into challenging encounters.

The game will feature 3 pinball tables with distinct mechanics to learn and master. With leaderboards to compete against friends and over 60 artifacts and 50 balls to choose from, Runix: Pinball Roguelike stands to be a fun way to battle friends for high scores. As you progress, power-ups and abilities stay with you, allowing you to seek the best builds to ensure you make it for the long haul. From an infinity mode to the mention of harder scenarios as you move along, there’s a good chance many pinball and roguelike fans will like what’s in store.
