Duckside Announced; Think 'DayZ Meets Rust But You Play as a Duck'

Duckside has crafting, base-building, PvP, PvE, and, since you're a duck, it has flying too. Precision flight controls allow you to maneuver through the air both in combat and just to scout, while you'll also upgrade your weapons (read: guns) along with your bases to defend against enemy raids on servers that support up to 50 fowl players.

Publisher tinybuild has announced Duckside, a new persistent-world survival game for PC where you play as a duck. And no, this is not a joke despite it being April 1. Check out the announcement trailer above and the first screenshots in the gallery below. Duckside has crafting, base-building, PvP, PvE, and, since you're a duck, it has flying too. Precision flight controls allow you to maneuver through the air both in combat and just to scout, while you'll also upgrade your weapons (read: guns) along with your bases to defend against enemy raids on servers that support up to 50 fowl players. As the developers put it with tongue firmly in cheek, "Duckside isn't just about surviving; it’s about getting into the mind of a duck. Being a duck. Feeling the cold steel of a machine gun on your feathers. And the peace of mind that comes with settling down after a long day, in a house you built out of trash that you’d looted off some guy's corpse. Are you a chicken? No, you’re a DUCK."
