DERELIKT

An official playtest announcement references an access-code challenge involving a character above the worm labs. The correct combination is not revealed.

Satchel Charges can destroy damaged doors and weakened obstacles. They can also be used against hostile creatures and security drones.

Force fields block access to certain sections of the station. Progression can require additional tools or equipment.

Some areas initially contain radiation levels too dangerous to enter. Players may need suitable equipment before returning.

The Exo Labs section contains environmental puzzles alongside combat encounters and ventilation-shaft exploration.

The R4-21 Assault Rifle is explicitly named in the developer's October 2 playtest announcement as equipment players can use.

An explosive device that can damage hostile abominations and security drones or destroy weakened barriers.

The developer confirms that players can discover unconventional experimental weapon prototypes as the story progresses.

Alien weapons form part of the broader arsenal, although a complete named weapon list has not been published.

Ammunition is a limited survival resource. Players must balance combat encounters against the need to preserve supplies.

The primary setting is a research station built into an anomalous derelict asteroid orbiting Saturn.

A laboratory area containing specimen-holding vats, hostile encounters, environmental puzzles, and ventilation passages.

The station includes crew living areas that form part of its explorable environment.

Returning to earlier areas with new equipment can uncover hidden rooms containing ammunition, medical supplies, or other useful items.

The developer confirms that exploration can reveal fragments of mysterious Glyphs. Their complete function remains unconfirmed in the referenced announcement.

A missing excavation team whose fate the player is sent to investigate as an outside contractor.

Official game information confirms more than a dozen NPCs with individual agendas, problems, and perspectives on the station's events.

A named character referenced in the developer's September 17 playtest announcement.

The developer describes a mysterious drone contributing to the growing psychological tension among the station's inhabitants.

Survivors provide differing explanations of what happened at the outpost. Dialogue and investigation are central parts of the narrative.

DERELIKT includes a deliberately low-resolution visual mode designed to reproduce the appearance of late-1990s PlayStation games.

Players can switch to a cleaner high-resolution presentation instead of using the period-accurate low-resolution appearance.

The developer confirms that affine texture-warping effects can be disabled for players who prefer a modern visual presentation.

The game allows players to disable dithering, another visual effect associated with its retro rendering style.

The game's visual design uses hand-painted textures, vertex-color lighting, dynamic subdivision, and retro-style CGI cutscenes.

DERELIKT is scheduled to launch on November 13, 2026, for PC through Steam, GOG, and the Epic Games Store.

The official PlayStation Blog confirms a November 13, 2026, PS5 launch, following an earlier announcement that left the console release date unspecified.

The free DERELIKT Demo launched on October 8, 2026, and includes three non-sequential chapters from the full narrative.

An Xbox Series release has been discussed in launch reporting, but the referenced official announcements do not establish a confirmed Xbox release date.

Steam and Epic Games Store identify DERELIKT as a single-player game featuring action, adventure, exploration, and survival-horror elements.
