It’s Steam PvP Fest, which feels like the perfect time to unleash a few Astro Duels on the universe. If you’ve been waiting for the moment to jump in (or drag your rivals in), this is it.
To mark this beastly event, we’re sharing brand-new art of Chomper’s escape from the Dark Lab! This incredible illustration from Jeff Fillion captures our psychic shark turning the tables on the lab scientist.
Maybe the lesson here is: don’t experiment on shark brains in deep space.

It runs great and is a blast to play on the go — so if you’ve got a Deck, give it a spin and let me know what you think.
Second — Astro Duel 2 is out today on Xbox Series X|S!
This one’s been a long time coming. I’ve wanted to bring the game to Xbox for years, so I'm thrilled to finally make this happen.
That's all for now... But there’s more cool stuff on the horizon!
See you in the stars,
— Rusty 🚀

Spoilers ahead! While we won’t be revealing the darkest secrets of the Echo System, this post shares a few secrets. Feel free to skip this if you’re trying to stay spoiler free.

BEGIN SPOILERS
Within the farther regions of the Echo System lies a lost terrestrial planet. Defended by an ancient guardian, few have been able to land and explore the depths of the lost cities.
Sunken Temple is the first major unlockable world. If you’re able to find passage, you’ll discover a land divided. Prepare to battle above ground and underwater below. Here your ships will act as submarines as you navigate the depths. Some of these levels take place near the surface. Others are deep below and fully submerged.
Water changes up the game. Unlike normal Gravity Zones in space, any kind of bullet passes right through to the surface. So pilots will find these barriers more susceptible to ship bombardment. With enough destructive firepower, the caves and underground structures can even be flooded!
Deep within the murky depths of these flooded ruins, whispers persist of a figure shrouded in mystery and legend - none other than Dina, the Lost Huntress. You may cross paths and even swords with her here.
Astro Duel 2 releases in just 3 days! We can’t wait for you to play and explore all the secrets we’ve buried here. Make sure to give us a Wishlist. Also join our Discord for more updates and launch celebration!

We’re just under two weeks from the launch of Astro Duel 2! To celebrate, we're pleased to reveal a BRAND NEW, NEVER BEFORE SEEN major game mode that will be available immediately at launch. Get ready for Bounty Mode.
Bounty Mode is a progression-based mini-campaign built on Astro Duel 2's addicting arena gameplay. Take to the stars and build up your riches and infamy as you play the role of intergalactic mercenary. Whether you're running with a pack of space outlaws with up to three players in co-op mode or flying solo, there are plenty of jobs available for a hired gun.
Get ready to face savage beasts and their nefarious robot wranglers, fend off relentless invaders, pull off daring heists, and tackle raiders armed to the teeth with jetpacks and rifles. It's an all-out cosmic brawl where every moment is packed with adrenaline-pumping action!
Weapons Testing in the Abyss: Ever wanted to play guinea pig with experimental weapons? Dive into dangerous, infested space caves and unleash havoc with technology that is as unpredictable as it is deadly. Your accuracy and reflexes won't be the only things put to the test in this mode: the real challenge will be utilizing your creativity and improvisation skills to wipe out your enemies as efficiently as possible.
Bloodsport in the Skies: Imagine this: waves of mutant pests infesting highrise buildings, and you? You're the exterminator. But there's a twist - as you mow down the hordes, the rich patrons above cheer for more blood and death. It's survival of the fittest, and in this game, the pests aren't the only ones with claws.
Upgrade and Explore: The Shadow Market is home to everything an outlaw needs to make it to the top. Everyone starts small, but as your influence grows, so will your fleet, arsenal, and abilities. But you're not just buying at Shadow Market. Your services are also for sale, and business is good. The more you prove yourself, the more attention you'll gain, bringing with it new jobs, bounties, and challenges. Earn your worth and take on the ever-growing gauntlet of black-market dirty work thrown your way by the salt of the galaxy.
Whether being played as a single-player campaign or as an all-nighter co-op experience, Bounty Mode brings a whole new depth to Astro Duel 2, and we're so happy to say that it will be available for FREE at launch on March 7th. If you haven't yet, please wishlist the game (and tell your friends to wishlist too!)
While we gear up for launch, come hang with us in the official Astro Duel 2 Discord server! Who knows- maybe we have even more to reveal? 👀🚀
