Dread Delusion for Windows

An open-world RPG full of strange visuals

Dread Delusion is an open-world game that features elements of exploration and role-playing (RPG). The game also makes use of a retro graphical style akin to the early 2000s-era of consoles, such as PlayStation and Nintendo 64. The player’s choices also affect how the game unfolds.

The graphical style of the game, combined with the fantasy setting and open-world RPG nature of the game, has drawn many comparisons with the Elder Scrolls series of games, specifically Morrowind. However, many players have questioned this comparison due to quite different gameplay elements.

Explore a strange and colorful world

Dread Delusion is an open-world RPG that features a retro aesthetic in line with the original PlayStation era of games. Like many RPGs, the player must complete a variety of quests to progress. The open-world nature of the game is evident with these quests, as the player is not limited to a linear path through the game.

Level up, find new gear, and fight enemies

Like most RPG games, the player can increase their abilities by finding better gear and leveling up their character. The NPCs also have a basic faction system, allowing them to act as groups with or against the player. Upgrading existing weapons — such as improving the power of an old sword — is also possible.

A solid RPG with a retro feel

Fans of RPG games from the early 2000s may feel quite nostalgic playing Dread Delusion, but that doesn’t mean it’s not worth playing for younger gamers. The developers are actively working on the game, so updates are expected in the future.
