Producer Jeff Chen expressed his gratitude in a press release. “Team Soda is incredibly humbled to have reached such heights. We owe this success to our amazing community of players and our friends at Bilibili Game. Thank you for joining us, whether from the early demo days or just now to see what all the quacking is about.”
Escape from Duckov is a top-down, single-player PvE looter-extraction RPG with a fun duck theme. Unlike hardcore tactical shooters, the game has cartoonish enemies, fog-of-war mechanics, and randomly dropped loot. Players explore a mysterious egg-shaped world that is slowly falling apart. The main goal is to customize your duck, survive, and craft a rocket ship to escape the planet.
The game also includes base-building, weapon customization, and in-depth character progression, making it highly replayable.
