Dustborn is finally available for macOS via the App Store and Steam, with native support for both Intel and Apple Silicon Macs. The macOS version includes ALL previously released content updates — just in time for a summer vacation road trip across an alternate history America!

We believe representation and diversity in games is not only important — it’s absolutely vital. We're deeply committed to telling stories and building worlds that reflect the world we live in, and our games wouldn't be the same without queer characters…and devs! ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜

We just released another big (FREE!) Dustborn content update! Version 1.14 includes improvements to combat, Codas, bus life and more. The update is live NOW on Steam & coming soon to consoles. We also made a video highlighting some of the major changes to the game since launch 👇🏼

A new Dustborn update is live on Steam — coming soon to PlayStation and Xbox.

Our latest content update adds new scenes (mostly Puritans-related), a puzzle, and a bunch of bug fixes and optimisations.

We have MORE Dustborn updates planned for the next six months, so stay tuned!

A friendly reminder that if you want to see more posts from us and stay updated on our games — including Hello Sunshine & upcoming play-tests — please join us on Discord and Bluesky ❤️

"Perhaps 2024’s most misunderstood game (…) its twisting story and vibrant world are worth experiencing."

GLAAD's nomination is an affirmation of what our team set out to achieve, telling a story about inclusion and diversity in a world that often feels hostile to those ideals.
