About this game
The old world ended four hundred years ago.
What's left are the ships- remnants of the before.
Drifting, dark, and still running on rules that no longer make sense.
You are Awakened.
Small. Fast. Fragile.
You and your crew deploy from the NEZT into derelicts that don't know they're dead yet.
The corridors remember things.
Deploy into derelicts. Explore, collect, and bring back what you can. Do it again.
VAULTRATS is a 1-4 player co-op extraction game about salvage, survival, and knowing when to get out.
Explore Procedurally Generated Derelicts
Every derelict is different. Corridors, rooms, enemies and hazards shift between runs. The deeper you go, the more you find - and the less stable things become.
Scavenge, Extract, Persist
Recover salvage and equipment from derelict ships. Extract before instability kills you and bring your haul back to the NEZT. Trade fragments with the Merchant to gear up for the next run - or risk going in empty-handed.
Instability
Derelicts degrade with time- use your intuition and visuals in the environment to help you navigate and weigh your choice of deeper exploration with better returns or extraction while you still can.
Your Ship, Your Crew
The NEZT is home between runs. Customize it with unlockable furniture, unlock and equip cosmetics, receive signals, read rem-logs, gear up at the Merchant or go in empty-handed, and deploy with your crew. What you build here persists.
Tune Your Signal
Customize your look and broadcast your aura as you explore derelicts with a variety of cosmetics to choose from. Discover new fits and make the universe respect your drip.
Early Access Roadmap
VAULTRATS is in active development. Planned updates include additional weapons, cosmetics, derelict tile variety, progression systems, and more. Join the Discord to follow development and help shape the game.
