## About He is Coming

He is Coming is a roguelite strategy RPG with deck-building mechanics and auto-battler combat, developed by Chronocle and published by Hooded Horse. Set in a dark fantasy world where the Demon King stirs, the game centers on collecting artifacts and crafting synergistic item combinations to counter increasingly difficult boss encounters. Players can engage with an async PvP Kingmaker mode to challenge other builds. Reviewers highlight the charming Y2K aesthetic and soundtrack, noting that item synergies can feel unpredictable and exciting. Bosses reportedly force players to pivot their builds flexibly, and the game supports both solo play and online co-op. It released in 2025 at $19.99 USD and is verified on Steam Deck. Reviews indicate 88% positive reception from 2,285 Steam users.
