Jump Into Dust-Filled Fun Of Dusty Derby, Now Available In Early Access

KUALA LUMPUR, Nov 29 (Bernama) -- Geniesoft Inc, a South Korean video content platform developer, has officially launched the Early Access version of ‘Dusty Derby’ on Steam.

It is a massively multiplayer online (MMO) battle royale game where players compete as adorable dust characters in a quest to become the “King of Dusts”, according to a statement.

Set in whimsical household environments, players navigate through missions and battle other players to emerge victorious in a fun and accessible experience suitable for all ages.

'Dusty Derby' supports up to 32 players in a single match, offering a casual battle royale experience where players can compete solo or with friends.

The Early Access version includes three stages within each of the three primary settings, namely the living room, bathroom, and kitchen, providing a total of nine unique stages. Future season updates will introduce additional themed settings, such as offices, restaurants, and schools.

The game stands out for its intuitive controls, allowing players of all ages and genders to easily roll their dust characters and engage in strategic moves, such as speeding up, attacking opponents, and throwing objects.

Adding to the excitement, Geniesoft has introduced stage-specific missions, such as dodging vacuum cleaners or deactivating fans, which heighten the sense of tension by adding a new layer of gameplay mechanism.

Character customisation is a key feature, with players able to personalise their dust characters through a variety of colours, materials, facial expressions, accessories, and costumes. Geniesoft plans to further expand the customisation options, enhancing the player experience with social features such as an in-game store and friends list.

'Dusty Derby' has already garnered attention at major gaming events since it was first unveiled across Asia, including G-STAR 2024, and recently hosted a successful 'Dusty Derby Tournament' featuring 32 prominent virtual video game content creators from Indonesia, further building excitement for its global success.
