Dysplaced is an open-world RPG weaving elements from survival, crafting, and building genres into a compelling gaming experience.

After falling from the sky into a realm of myth and magic, you'll start a new life in a stunning, yet imperiled domain: Gather resources, build, cook, fish. Learn magic, smithing, hunting, alchemy, and more. Is there a way back?

But know this: There's a dark force rising - and you must prepare.

Dive into the enchanting realm of Dysplaced, where a question stirs in the mind of every player: How would you fare if flung into a fantasy world, leaving the mundane behind? Our game throws players into an entirely novel place and time, challenging them to not only survive but also thrive and succeed. This was the main idea behind Dysplaced as we started to envision the game.

Plummeting from your ordinary life into an unfamiliar arcane realm, a myriad questions are likely swirling in your mind. Yet, with scarce few around to provide answers, you are thrown into the challenge of relearning existence and navigating a new way of life in this extraordinary world. The slumbering gifts inside you awaken, preparing to be sharpened and refined to unparalleled mastery. This isn't merely survival - it's the awakening of the extraordinary within the ordinary. Your real adventure begins here, in a world that has chosen you to reveal your hidden potential - while you reveal its hidden mysteries and ultimately defeat the looming darkness.

You find yourself lost in a fantastical realm with no way back. Learn the lay of the land and the rules governing this strange place. Once you know where and what to look for, you can harness nearly everything you find to help you become the champion of your wildest dreams. Outfit your chosen hero with bespoke weapons and mystic armor hammered out from the resources of this strange world. Choose between aesthetics that would bewitch even the nobles or practical efficiency that would impress a blacksmith - the choice lies in your hands!

Make a camp, build a perimeter, expand it, build a house, build a forge - create a new home! You'll venture further into the expansive world by building camp sites and larger outposts along the way. Having a well equipped base can make all the difference when facing the challenges of this new fantastic frontier.

After equipping yourself for the journey, a vast and enchanting universe awaits you. Delve into its abundant resources unearth hidden treasures, witness awe-inspiring wonders, brave treacherous perils, and unlock mysterious enigmas. Forge your domain by establishing camps, fortifications, and even prosperous settlements, expanding your influence across the realm.

In your new life you will also uncover your hidden skills in arcana - the sublime enchantment that breathes life into your newfound realm. The applications of arcana are many: Gathering, building, fighting, protecting and so on. It may be through magic that you finally find your way back home - should you so desire.

Beneath the tranquil facade, a sinister force is consuming the realm, spreading chaos, and driving the people into exile. Are you ready to steel yourself against the threat devouring these lands? It could be your destiny to steer this world clear of its impending doom...

You can conquer this strange new world alone - or you can bring a friend. Dysplaced allows you to bring along another dysplaced being for a shared experience in the dream-infused world where you will find both tranquility and excitement.


The game is currently in development and we hope to release an EA version late 2024 but that estimate may change during development. The game will be released on PC, consoles and mobile.

Our core game mechanics involve an amalgamation of open-world RPG elements, survival challenges, and crafting adventures. With endless possibilities at your fingertips, you'll find yourself immersed in an expansive and intricate world. Resource gathering forms the backbone of the gameplay, with opportunities to deconstruct the environment for crafting, cooking, building, blacksmithing, and much more. You'll also be building camp, outposts, settlements, roads and bridges to improve the world and to expand your reach and improve the lives of the inhabitants still living in this beautiful world shadowed by a rising darkness.

Beneath the serene exterior, a malevolent force lurks, gradually spreading chaos and driving its inhabitants into exile. As the player, you stand on the precipice of destiny, tasked with shielding this world from an ominous fate.

We're also excited to announce our plans for online co-op for two players - a first for our team and a challenge we’re eager to tackle. Our goal is to create an unforgettable multiplayer experience, because while adventuring in the world of Dysplaced can be thrilling on its own, it's even more exhilarating with a companion.

Dysplaced utilizes the latest 10tons game technology, undergoing a significant revamp to the 3D engine that powered its previous title, Dysmantle. As they develop our multiplayer technology, we're also enhancing the engine with new rendering techniques, a more advanced foliage system, and improved terrain systems. The result will be a more vivid, high-definition, and larger world than ever before.

Following the success of Dysmantle, we want continue delivering an engaging open-world experience with Dysplaced. Tackling the challenge of creating a new, improved open-world game is something we embrace with open arms. Join us on this exciting journey by following us on Steam. So here's to the road ahead. Wish us luck - once more!
