Duskers 2.0 Takes the Next Step

Misfits Attic has announced Duskers 2.0, the sequel to the acclaimed ship-scavenging horror game Duskers. The game is being developed by one of Subnautica 2's ousted executives and is tipped for a Steam early access release. Players will scavenge derelict spacecraft with drones via a command-line interface, finding survivors in cryostasis and building colonies to give humanity a second chance in a doomed universe.

Why This Matters

This continuation of a beloved indie horror/strategy game brings high production values through its connection to Subnautica 2 talent. The sequel expands on the original's unique drone-control gameplay by adding colony-building mechanics that change how players approach each run.

What to Expect

For Players and Parents

This title leans into darker themes that may not suit all players, especially younger ones. For families who are mindful of what they take in, it is worth noting the horror elements and considering whether this aligns with your household values.
