Description
Soul Dust is a third-person bullet heaven you can play two ways. Lean back and let your build clear the swarm, or lean in and parry, dash and combo through it yourself. Same upgrades, same power, your choice. And the six factions you fight are at war with each other too.
Features
- Two ways to play, same power. Auto-fire, orbitals, turrets and Auto-Pick for a hands-off run, or parries, counters, posture breaks and manual fire for a hands-on one. Switch any time.
- A horde at war with itself. Six factions fight each other on sight. Lead them into each other, buy a Cease Fire, or turn their own side against them.
- Embers. Level-ups never have to stop the fight. Bank them, let them ripen toward a guaranteed Legendary, and open them your way.
- Build something broken. Over 170 upgrades, ten cast types, 36 hero attunements and 17 cores.
- Territorial bosses. Each biome's boss patrols its own ground. Pick the fight when you're ready, and parry the big hits.
- Local co-op. A friend joins on the same screen with any hero, or an AI partner backs you up.
What's in the game
- 12 playable heroes, each with their own signature shot and passive
- 6 enemy factions and 42 enemy types
- 5 biomes and 4 bosses
