Alientrap has revealed the upcoming hand-drawn adventure game DuneCrawl, set to launch on January 5, 2026, for PC via Steam.

About DuneCrawl

DuneCrawl is an isometric action-adventure game supporting both online and offline co-op play for 1 to 4 players. Players take on the role of a group of desert travelers acting as “privateers” or hired adventurers. Together, they operate the Dune Crawler—a colossal land-dwelling creature equipped with cannons, maps, and treasure-hunting tools.

As players traverse the expansive desert, they explore exquisitely hand-drawn environments, from lush oases and ancient ruins to small desert communities. Players will uncover secrets behind the Dune Crawlers, meet NPCs offering quests, defend villages under attack, hunt hidden treasures, and compete to claim the title of “greatest independent adventurer” across the seven deserts.

The game atmosphere combines exploration, mission-based gameplay, and fast-paced combat, making it ideal for solo players or friends seeking a cooperative and challenging adventure.
