[p][/p][p]Author: Andreas Koch[/p][p]Today, we are celebrating the anniversary of Dustwind. The game series launched in Early Access on November 1, 2017, and is now eight years old. How time flies![/p][p]
Our Dustwind series has reached several milestones: we have released two complete games, both set in the same universe and highlighting different aspects of the timeline in Dustwind’s world. In addition to the original game from 2017, there are now a number of expansions and campaigns. We are particularly excited about the upcoming release of Canyon Cross, the first DLC for the new Dustwind: Resistance.[/p][p]
But today, we also want to celebrate the countless fans from the community who have made Dustwind what it is today. We look back on several hundred videos on YouTube, TikTok, and other social networks. We celebrate more than 200 maps and installments for Dustwind, which have been published by fans and players in the Steam Workshop. We have counted almost 350 reviews from players, which we are very proud of.[/p][p]To celebrate the occasion, we have created a YouTube playlist of eight “historic” Dustwind videos:[/p][p][/p][p]Dustwind Anniversary Playlist
So today, to celebrate this anniversary, we are launching our Dustwind Anniversary Steam Sale from October 29 to November 10, with 90% off Dustwind and 35% off Dustwind: Resistance. Getting started in the Dustwind universe has never been easier or more affordable—the corresponding bundles will also be adjusted to the new prices.[/p][p]

Defeating the Warlord was not enough. A ruthless raider general threatens your allies’ settlement, Canyon Cross. Lead Jake and his crew into battle once more and remind the invaders why it’s a terrible idea to mess with you. Push your character’s skills even further. Ride into action guns-blazing in your trusty Scraptrack. Discover new elite weapons. Reawaken the ancient defense system and rain fire from above. Sneak. Strike. Protect. Overcome.[/p][p]
In addition to new maps and landscapes, the DLC offers five new weapons, five new missions, and approximately 5 hours of gameplay (based on average play). Like the main game, Canyon Cross will be available on PC (Steam), PlayStation 5, and Xbox X|S. 
 
The Canyon Cross DLC will be released in fall 2025.[/p]
