Developer Crafting Legends has announced Death Trash, a post-apocalyptic semi open-world RPG due out first for PC via Steam Early Access in early 2020, followed by PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Switch, and other PC stores when the game fully launches.
Here is an overview of the game, via its Steam page:
About
A post-apocalyptic world where cosmic horrors crave humanity but meet punks with shotguns. Influenced by cyberpunk, post-apocalyptic classics, science fiction, horror and grotesque dark fantasy.
Gameplay
Death Trash is a semi open-world role-playing game with handcrafted levels and a grotesque story campaign.
The game features real-time gameplay with ranged and melee combat, stealth, multiple-choice dialogue, an inventory full of items and Fleshworms, a crafting system and social skills like pickpocketing and puking.
Travel through the gritty post-apocalyptic wasteland by world map and explore hand-painted organic locations. Meet exciting characters: Talk to the Fleshkraken, visit the Puke Bar or pickpocket stuff from that old naked guy.
Customize your own character through stats and making choices. Experience the story and discover side quests. Fight against machines and larger-than-life monsters—or become their friend.
The game contains many features supporting player freedom:
- Manual save games
- Dialogue can be left anytime
- Kill everyone or…
- Hardly kill anyone!
Story
Humankind travelled to the stars and settled on the planet Nexus with its ancient secrets of stone and flesh. The machines were installed as protectors, but they were corrupted and brought terror.
You are a raider among the ruins of the past.
But fate might lead you to the Bleeding Head Oracle, the Evergrowing Heart and towards a war with the machines, giving you the power to mend or destroy.
