Description
Section 13 is a roguelite twin-stick shooter that can be played solo or in a group of up to 3 players (crossplay not supported). As an Agent of the S2P Corporation, it’s up to you to investigate a crisis at the most top-secret facility of a company whose whole thing is keeping secrets.
CONSPIRACIES TO UNCOVER
Step into the shoes of Agents Red, Boy Scout, Beaker, and Scalpel, as they fight to unearth the buried secrets of Section 13… and solve a few personal mysteries of their own. Collect data on paranormal entities running amok and find out what it all has to do with you.
DELVE THE DARKNESS ALONE OR TOGETHER
When an Omega-level containment breach puts an off-the-books company black-site on lockdown, it’s up to a small team of expendable peons to get to the bottom of it. Literally.
Tackle the mission solo or with up to two squad-mates. And with optional friendly fire, it’s up to you whether you’d like a more forgiving experience, or chaotic fun with mad-science weapons.
TENSE TWIN-STICK ACTION IN THE WEIRDEST WORKPLACE EVER
As a Tier-1 paranormal containment facility, Section 13 is full of unique hazards, and it's up to you to overcome them with quick wits and reflexes.
Time your dodge-rolls and reloads to stay one step ahead of a horde of hungry monsters. Back against the wall? Pop off with a special ability… or grab a melee weapon and smash your way out.
But keep an eye on your Fear level, or risk a debilitating mid-mission panic attack!
CUTTING-EDGE TOOLS TO MASTER
Add some spice to every run with unlockable (and customizable) weapons, gameplay-altering Synaptic Enhancements, and of course, recreational genetic modification. (Some side effects may apply).
Utilize special abilities and unique tactical items to outsmart pissed-off cryptids, navigate a series of shifting levels, and push deeper into the base with every attempt.
Between deaths, you’ll also unlock persistent upgrades that change how you play and radically alter your chances of success.

About Section 13
Developed by Ocean Drive Studio and published by Kakao Games, Section 13 is a roguelite twin-stick shooter that fully released on May 26, 2025, for PC and PlayStation 5, with an Xbox Series X/S version following later in 2025. The game originally entered Steam Early Access in July 2023 under the name Blackout Protocol before being extensively rebuilt, rebranded, and relaunched based on player feedback.
Players take on the role of Agents of the S2P Corporation, sent to investigate an incident at Section 13, a classified underground research facility overrun by paranormal creatures and corporate secrets. Four agents are available to choose from, each with distinct playstyles: Red, Boy Scout, Beaker, and Scalpel. Every run is built around selecting a loadout, stacking temporary power-ups called Synaptic Enhancements, and pushing deeper into the facility through a series of shifting floors filled with cryptids and environmental hazards.
Combat runs at a high pace, with dodge-rolling, timed reloads, melee weapons, and special abilities all feeding into a system that punishes passive play and rewards aggression. A Fear mechanic adds an extra layer of pressure, with a rising fear level risking a mid-run panic attack if left unchecked. Between attempts, players unlock persistent upgrades that carry over across runs and significantly change how each agent performs. The game supports solo play and online co-op for up to three players, though crossplay between platforms is not supported. A free demo is available on Steam for players who want to try before buying.
