1963. The bombs fell. The ice caps melted. The Bots won. Humanity’s last stand isn't on the surface—it’s in the crushing depths below the sea. You are Cade Callahan, a fresh recruit for the Rusted Retaliators. Your mission: complete the R.U.S.T.E.D. protocol and turn the tide of the war against the mechanical SeaBot legion.
THE SURVIVAL LOOP Rusted Sea combines underwater exploration with a satisfying extraction economy:
Feed The Replicator: You are a scavenger at heart. Collect scrap metal and debris floating in the wreckage of the old world. Feed it into your Replicator to instantly print ammunition, batteries, and essential survival consumables.
The Pressure Point Economy: The Retaliators don't work for free. Locate volatile Nukelium deposits and extract them. Send the payload back to command to earn Pressure Points.
The Oceanic Industries Armory: Spend your hard-earned Pressure Points at the SHELL.E Terminal. Unlock guns,s gear, and vehicles that you can’t craft in the field.
ARSENAL & VEHICLES You won't be swimming alone.
Pilot the Deep: Tired of swimming? Purchase and deploy a variety of underwater vehicles, from the agile Rusted Riptide to the sidekick SCWID.
Tools of the Trade: Wield a vast array of 1960s gadgets. Use your Welder for repairs, the Drill for mining, and high-caliber Torpedo Gun for when the SeaBots get too close.
The SeaBots are evolving. They are learning. Load your weapon, check your oxygen, and get to work, Callahan.
