Dungeons of DUSK has been announced from New Blood Interactive. It's a retro dungeon crawler set canonically between the episodes of the classic FPS DUSK. How exactly does it fit in? According to New Blood it "starts right after the end of Episode 1 of DUSK. Literally".

It's a "proper RPG" too with skills to unlock, passive bonuses, NPCs to help you along the way and multiple different game modes to crawl through. Interestingly, they also confirmed that the inspiration behind the game was DOOM RPG, a 2005 mobile game from Fountainhead Entertainment.

Other things that have also been confirmed include a level editor and Steam Workshop support, there will be a demo in Steam Next Fest (February 2026), it will be Steam Deck Verified and should cost around $16.99.

Quoting: suchLooks very much like those Java DOOM and Wolfenstein rpgs.

Absolutely!

Those Id Software titles, like DOOM RPG and Orcs & Elves, were truly groundbreaking for their time on mobile phones. The way they combined those complex worlds with an engaging turn-based RPG system was brilliant. They have certainly remained very dear to me.

I am definitely wishlisting this one!
