The wait for “bite-sized raids” is almost over. Everbloom Games has officially confirmed that their highly anticipated 1-4 player co-op roguelite, Nullpoint Protocol, will launch on Steam on 6th April 2026.
Known primarily for their massive success in the Minecraft Marketplace—where they’ve collaborated with titans like Disney, Universal, and Dungeons & Dragons—Everbloom is finally stepping out of the blocks and into the indie spotlight with their first fully original title.
MMO Raids Without the Grind
The core philosophy behind Nullpoint Protocol is simple: capture the mechanical intensity of high-level MMORPG raids (think Final Fantasy XIV) and condense them into an approachable, fast-paced roguelite format.
Instead of spending weeks grinding for gear just to see a boss, you and up to three friends can jump straight into the chaos.
Key Game Features:
1-4 Player Co-op: Whether you’re braving the void solo or with a full squad, the difficulty dynamically scales to ensure the challenge remains “fair but punishing.”
MMO-Style Bosses: Prepare for “Void Shepherds”—colossal entities with complex, bullet-hell-style attack patterns that require precise positioning and pattern recognition to defeat.
Total Build Freedom: Eschewing traditional classes, the game allows you to craft your own skillset from randomised loot. You can mix meteor strikes, turrets, and healing abilities to create a build that fits your specific playstyle.
Dynamic Runs: Mystery events and randomised upgrades mean no two runs—or boss fights—will ever be the same.
From Minecraft to Millions
Everbloom’s journey is a fascinating one. Founded in 2016 by a group of friends who met online, the studio has spent nearly a decade perfecting the art of user-generated content (UGC). After selling millions of copies of their Minecraft DLC, the team of 12 developers decided to “jump ship” to full-scale indie development.
“Minecraft gave us a great foundation, but we outgrew it,” says co-founder Tom van Berkel. “Nullpoint Protocol is us fully stepping into our own.”
The game has been developed using the Godot engine, marking a significant technical leap for the team as they move into original 3D action-RPG territory.
Ready to Face the Void?
If you can’t wait until April 6th, there is a playable demo currently available on Steam. It features three raid-style boss encounters and 29 different player abilities to experiment with, supporting both online and local “couch” co-op.
Nullpoint Protocol is shaping up to be a must-play for fans of Rabbit and Steel or anyone who loves the thrill of a boss rush but lacks the time for a second job in an MMO.
