Don't Lose Aggro Early Access

LOS ANGELES – March 22, in the year of our Lord 2026 – Don't Lose Aggro, the single-player action roguelite inspired by MMO raids but without the hassle of time and guild commitments, enters into Early Access on Wednesday, April 15, 2026 for PC via Steam.

Heavy is the hand that bears the Tank’s shield. Why are Tank queues nearly instant? Join the decorated ranks of selfless armor-clad Tanks and charge through hordes of enraged enemies, taunt aggravated foes, and interrupt spellcasters with stunning strikes with but one goal in mind: keep the party alive.

Master cooldown rotation, aggro management, and other tanking concepts without the hassle of schedule management or needless loot drop drama that comes with a multiplayer world. Defend NPC party members designed to emulate real-world players in three game modes: Wave Defense (crowd control and positioning), Dungeon Crawl (routing and speed running), and Boss Rush (cooldowns and execution).

Whirlwind through mobs to AoE them down, throw out a shield to distract patrolling mobs from a distance, or unleash a loud battleshout to draw enemy threat from afar (and likely provide a defensive buff or offensive debuff in the process).

Wield different types of shields to specialize into various Tank archetypes, like the righteous Crusader inspired by classic paladins. Build into branching talent trees with points earned from successful runs, upgrade core skills, and mitigate damage in personalized ways with techniques like Vice Grip that engineers aggro into threatening damage numbers.

Created by solo developer and 15-year tanking veteran Oren Koren, Don’t Lose Aggro rebuilds the entire tanking experience as a single-player action roguelite to remove the entry barriers of tanking and bring about a renaissance in a world where Tanks are needed now more than ever.

“Don’t Lose Aggro is both my love letter to tanking, as well as my take in creating a safe practicing environment for people to explore tanking without the usual fear and anxiety,” said solo-developer Oren Koren. “My goal is to help solve key issues that exist within MMO tanking by providing a low-risk setting where everyone can gain the confidence to give the role a try, while offering those who have grown out of the genre a chance to relive the thrill of tanking without the time commitments or rigorous raid schedules.”

Don’t Lose Aggro launches into Early Access on April 15, 2026 with full controller support and Steam Deck verification. Language support includes English, Italian, Simplified and Traditional Chinese, German, Russian, Spanish, Japanese, Korean, French, Brazilian Portuguese, and Turkish.
