LOS ANGELES – FEBRUARY 16, 2023 – Rogue Games and David Marquardt Studios invite you to test your trigger finger against an award-winning twitch shooter that shoots back. Dust & Neon, a best-in-class rogue-lite complemented by a robust single-player campaign designed to test your mettle, is now available on Nintendo Switch and PC via Steam and the Epic Games Store. Trailblazer outlaws enjoy a 20% discount on Steam during the game’s launch.
Pull-up your boots, pack plenty of ammo, and begin your 15-plus-hour journey as the mysterious cyborg gunslinger with no name. Make your mark in this Wild West robot apocalypse by firing your revolver, shotgun or rifle with perfect timing through armies of metal-headed vermin. Keep a watchful eye when to reload empty gun chambers with the game’s distinct reloading mechanic or you’ll be buzzard-bot food fast.
Unlock dozens of sharpshooting skills and game-changing buffs, and choose your favorite shootin’ iron from the thousands out there. Will it be good ‘ole Furious Dual Barrel Embrace of Death or the Frenetic Top Loaded Twenty-Two? Build your arsenal to chew up robotic tyrants in a jiffy.
Want to feel macho? Randomly generated maps across four distinct biomes fuel money-grubbing loot runs – just don’t get too carried away there. Peeling off rat skin to resurrect your metal caboose may wear out that poor Dr. Finkel someday.
“You were genetically engineered to clear out robot infestations incredibly well. To kill stuff on command without questioning why,” says Dr. Finkel, Dust & Neon’s mad scientist. “You might just be worth all the blood, sweat and rat skin. Let’s get to work, my glorious creation!”
“We’ve got a fun storyline and a badass hero. We’ve got twitch precision controls and a super innovative ammunition reload system. We’ve got a 15-hour-plus campaign full of robots and boss fights and overflowing with weapons and upgrades. For all of these reasons and many more, we think Dust & Neon is a best-in-class roguelite looter shooter,” said Rogue Games founder and CEO Matt Casamassina.
