DUST is a racer where a car weighs a tonne, the bumper dents and the win goes to whoever makes it to the finish. Armoured cars with machine guns, rockets and flamethrowers fight for position and ram each other, and a tow cable lets you hook a rival and rip off their armour. The game pays not only for your place but for knockouts, jumps, drifts and near misses.
The game in brief
- Genre: arcade combat survival racing. Single player against bots.
- Cars: the Jackal — the starter all-rounder you can build for any play style — the heavy Jeep, the fast and fragile Buggy and the Spider that jumps over obstacles. A garage, not a shop: hood, suspension, bumpers, armour, weapon mounts.
- Where you drive: race tracks, off-road maps and arenas with Elimination, King of the Hill and Shrinking modes.
- Weather is a rival too: day, evening, night, fog, rain and sandstorm on any map.
- Platforms: Windows, Linux, Steam Deck. Gamepad or keyboard and mouse. Russian and English.
