Dysplaced

Dysplaced is a top-down survival action-RPG set in a fantasy realm where modern objects leak through cracks in reality. The Watchers, an old order that has studied the Eternals, summon you as their Guardian to fight the corruption consuming the land. Villagers welcome you, while the ancient, hungry Eternals seem to have been waiting for your arrival.

A realm of two worlds

Firearms, landmines, buses and other objects from another world appear in the realm. Locals mistake these Dysplaced Artifacts for magic, though some of them are. You can scavenge artifacts such as grenades, shotguns, mines, baseball bats and traffic cones, then learn to craft local counterparts, including grenades with copper or bronze casings.

Nearly everything can be broken down, including trees, wheelbarrows, plows, barrels and houses. You gather materials to learn skills and craft items, combining ancient resources such as bronze and hardwood with paracord, carbon fiber and salvaged electronics.

Shape your hero

You can craft and customize weapons, armor and tools, then choose a perk each level. Perks let you specialize in qualities such as speed, strength or efficiency, though you may not be able to excel at everything. Fight with a sword and shield, spear or bow, or use scavenged modern weapons. You can also mix blades and hilts at an anvil to create weapon combinations.

Explore and build

Across a vast open world, you can hunt wildlife, fish in murky lakes, farm plants and gather herbs, mushrooms and berries. You can search for hidden treasures, complete quests and face the realm’s wonders and dangers. Cooking meals and brewing potions can provide tactical advantages, vigor and boons.

Build campsites, outposts and houses, and set up facilities such as campfires, workbenches and forges. You can also build teleporters, and establish outposts as you travel further into the realm.

Face the Eternals

The Eternals are consuming the realm, spreading chaos and driving its people into exile. They are corrupted, patient and tied to an older conflict with the Ancients, which few remember. The Watchers are among those who know of that history, and you can meet the realm’s inhabitants and help them survive what is coming; some know more than they say, while others welcome the chaos.

Solo and co-op

You can play alone or bring a friend into the dream-infused world. Co-op is available online or locally.
