'Surfpunk' Shows Off Beastship Hub And Gameplay Loop In Latest Footage - Screens & Trailer

Surfpunk is an PvE co-op extraction Action/RPG set in an anime-inspired paradise.

Team up with fellow Raiders to explore procedurally generated islands of the Fallen World in search of precious loot and hidden ancient treasures.

The world has flooded. It's up to you and your crew of Raiders to keep humanity alive. Explore the Fallen World in search of resources to help you survive, and Evress, the coveted energy source that powers all the technology that remains. But be warned: the water isn’t the only dangerous part of the Fallen World, as the ink-like Sumi are on the hunt for any Raiders they can find. Push your luck against the Sumi and they will only become more aggressive, so it’s up to you to find the balance between exploring recklessly and returning empty handed.

Raiders are a crafty lot, and you’ll have to use every tool at your disposal if you want to make it back to your Beastship with all of your hard earned loot. Surfpunk’s in-run crafting system lets players use resources they’ve found on the island right away to create a variety of tools. Want to explore a rooftop that might have some Evress? Craft a ladder from wood you’ve found to climb on up! Craving new abilities for your next adventure? Meet up with your crewmates on the Beastship to trade your hard-earned treasure for weapon upgrades or customize your loadouts and deck out your rushboard.

Once you’ve designed your perfect loadout, join up to three other Raiders and hit the waves for online co-op! Strategize your weapons and abilities on the Beastship, then hit the high seas and work together to scavenge the islands and outlast the Sumi!

Get ready to ride the waves and conquer the Fallen World in Surfpunk - where every adventure is as wild and unpredictable as the ocean itself!


Creative Director, Eric Angelillo, offers a detailed look at the gameplay loop in a brand-new overview trailer, featuring never-before-seen footage of the tsunami escape and the Beastship.

In each run, Raiders complete high-stakes missions and must escape before a colossal tsunami crashes over the islands. Combat is fast-paced, with players mastering various weapon classes to unleash devastating combos against relentless waves of Sumi. Teamwork is essential as Raiders battle enemies and make tactical decisions to either seize more loot or retreat to safety.

After each raid, players return to the Beastship to craft new weapons, enhance their gear, and prepare for the next adventure. With dynamic, procedurally generated maps and endless side quests, every raid in Surfpunk promises a fresh and exhilarating experience. And of course, you can pet the adorable “Otter-Rabbit Thing”!

Grab your Rushboard and ride the waves to victory!
