At Gamescom Opening Night Live, Quantic Dream announced Dustborn, a “single-player, story-driven action-adventure game about hope, love, friendships, robots…and the power of words.”
Shortly after the reveal trailer, a Dustborn blog went live, providing potential players with more information on what the game will entail.
You have quite the way with words
You’ll play as Pax, a con-artist who has the ability to weaponize language in order to manipulate others or get out of tricky situations. Your job is to transport an important package from Pacifica to Nova Scotia, but you’ll be travelling with other characters as an undercover punk-rock band.
“Explore the stunning Neo-Western landscapes of an alternate history America on a robot-driven tour bus, and stop at a dozen locations along the road to build your crew, manage relationships, complete missions, and face increasingly difficult challenges. But the people you stole the package from want it back, and the authoritarian Justice is hot on your heels, so don’t forget to pack your baseball bat!”
It’s worth noting that Quantic Dream is not the developer of Dusborn. Instead, they are taking on the role of the publisher, while indie studio Red Thread Games are the team behind the game’s development.
We don’t yet have a release date, all we know from the Dustborn announcement trailer is that it’s “coming early 2024.” In terms of platforms, you can play the game on previous generation consoles (Xbox One and PS4,) current generation consoles (Xbox Series X|S and PS5,) and on PC via Steam or the Epic Games Store.
