Check out Enter the Gungeon, it's a twinstick roguelite and is half off right now. Really fantastic game!

[Zergem]

Serious Sam? It's not a roguelite but it has the same amount of enemies.

[Joey4Track]

The first Risk of Rain might be the obvious choice here

A Roguelike is a game where you have one life and try to survive across multiple levels as long as you can, upgrading your character as you go along, generally with some element of randomness in terms of items, terrain, etc. A Roguelite is just a game that shares most of those elements but is less strict in it's design (might have multiple lives for instance).

Examples:
Binding of Isaac
Darkest Dungeon
Enter the Gungeon
FTL: Faster than Light
Dungreed
Risk of Rain 1
Spelunky

Now if you're just talking about third person shooters where you slay giant hordes of enemies on large maps then Serious Sam franchise would also be right up your alley.

If it's the survival/random aspect you're after then other suggestions in this thread are pretty good.

If, instead, what you're after is a third person shooter with hundreds of onscreen enemies, brutal difficulty, progression where you become stupidly overpowered, and classes so different each of them feel like a different game then you should check out Earth Defense Force.

All good recommendations. I'd like to add some that are both roguelikes/roguelites as well as 3D shooters, because I think those would be the closest fit:

- Tower of Guns
- Ziggurat
- Immortal Redneck

The latter two are pretty similar with respect to gameplay, but Immortal Redneck has more "persistent rewards", i.e., more Roguelite than Roguelike.
But I also guess they are not as unforgiving as RoR2, and they are all first person (If I remember correctly).

Metal gear solid v the phantom pain

[Sky]

Slay the spire and Darkest Dungeon are very appreciated Roguelikes/lites.

[PickleRick]

Streets of Rogue is amazing.

[Femboy Thighs]

Enter the Gungeon and Binding of Issac are most similar in the sense that you get new items as you progress that make you stronger to keep up with the enemies.

[Phoenix]

Everspace is also a great one :)

I don't understand where this roguelite genre came from, a roguelike is "LIKE" Rogue. A game that's exactly like Rogue (where people would call clones a roguelike as opposed to any game like Binding of Isaac or Gungeon as roguelite) is just a Rogue "clone". Risk of Rain is a rogueLIKE, the roguelite shouldn't exist, it doesn't make sense at all, it's by definition the exact same as what roguelike should be.
