DUSTWIND: RESISTANCE RELEASE

We are proud and excited to release Dustwind: Resistance on Steam, Playstation 5 and Xbox X|S today. More than eight years after the first release of Dustwind, the sequel Resistance is now in the starting blocks.


Dustwind: Resistance is a real-time tactics game with pause functionality, set in a harsh post-apocalyptic world. Players command a squad of warriors and a loyal dog named Diesel to fight back against a ruthless raider army. Using a mix of combat tools and skills—including stealth, traps, heavy weapons, turrets, or a massive armored car—players complete high-stakes missions to defend their home and secure their people’s freedom.

The game introduces a brand-new campaign and refined single-player focus within the Dustwind universe, featuring updated gameplay mechanics, new and rebalanced weapons, character system enhancements, and a streamlined user interface. Environments are more varied, and quality-of-life improvements help deliver a smoother and more engaging experience.


At the heart of the story is Jake, a farmer turned fighter, seeking justice and survival after raiders destroy his peaceful life. Backed by his squad, he must reclaim his homeland by any means necessary. In addition, a user-friendly map editor allows players to create and share their own missions via Steam Workshop, expanding the world of Dustwind with endless player-driven possibilities.
