What is DUST 514?
One Universe // One WarDUST 514® brings intense infantry combat, large-scale warfare, and deep character advancement to a free-to-play massively multiplayer shooter, exclusively on the PlayStation 3
Wage war in the next generation of first-person shooters, where a single victory could prove the crushing blow to a galactic empire of thousands of EVE Online gamers.
Multiplayer First Person Shooter
Fight, dominate, and hone your skills as an elite mercenary with an unparalleled array of armor, weapons, and vehicles in massive online battles of up to 48 players. Customize every aspect of your gameplay, from your characters’ weapons, equipment, and skills to the vehicles they drive.
Play in the EVE Universe
Wage war in the notorious, persistent universe of EVE Online, where every battle and every action can affect the balance of power among thousands of players. Win battles, acquire territories, amass wealth, and build empires to establish yourself as a major influence in the ongoing conflicts of EVE Online.
Free To Play
Play completely for free, only on PlayStation®3 and the PlayStation®Network. Microtransactions can expand the experience but will not enable pay-to-win.
Corporations
Recruit friends and comrades-in-arms into your galactic corporation to win glory and territory across the stars. A corporation in DUST 514® is similar to a guild or clan in other online games. All players begin the closed beta in an NPC corporation, but can join or create a player organization thereafter.
Vehicles
Vehicles play a large role on the DUST 514® battlefield and are a significant threat to the opposition. The heavily armored units use long-range, heavy, concussive attacks while lighter units utilize their speed and flexibility. Aerial vehicles on the other hand are great for laying down fire from above; their vantage point over the battlefield also puts them in a good position to provide vital support functions for armored units. Each vehicle has its own set of unique bonuses or abilities allowing them to turn the tide in battle. Many of these abilities are of a supportive nature, allowing different types of vehicles to team up to create even more unique roles between classes.
Infantry Dropsuits
The mercenary soldiers of DUST 514® enter combat wearing dropsuits designed to protect them from both the elements and enemy fire. With a variety of specialized designs available, different dropsuits offer specific bonuses to speed, mobility, defense and configurability. Like starships and planetary vehicles, each dropsuit design come with a unique slot configuration and powergrid (PG) and CPU that permit a range of customizations. The number and type of slots determine the modules, weapons, and equipment that can be fitted
