Dustborn is an upcoming single-player, story-driven action-adventure game developed by Red Thread Games and published by Spotlight by Quantic Dream, set to release on August 20, 2024. Players assume the role of Pax, an exile and con artist capable of weaponizing language, tasked with transporting a crucial package across a dystopian America controlled by an authoritarian regime. The game combines themes of hope, friendship, and the unique power of words.
As players navigate through beautifully rendered Neo-Western landscapes, they’ll meet a diverse cast of characters and recruit a compelling crew, each with their own peculiar abilities and stories. The journey involves completing missions, managing relationships, and making choices that affect the dynamics within the crew. Engaging in combat with powerful "Shouts" and "Vox" allows for both verbal manipulation and physical confrontations as players avoid hostile pursuers.
Dustborn encourages players to discover iconic locations while honing their musical skills as they travel undercover as a punk-rock band. The game’s narrative and action elements are complemented by a distinctive graphic-novel-inspired art style, enhancing the immersive experience.
