Kingdoms of the Dump Launching November 18

Developer Roach Games announced a firm release date for its turn-based RPG Kingdoms of the Dump. The game, which underwent a successful Kickstarter campaign in 2019, will launch for PC via Steam on November 18, 2025.

Kingdoms of the Dump is set in the Lands of Fil and stars Dustin Binsley, a sentient trash-can and aspiring knight. Falsely accused of “trashpicking” the king of Garbagia, Dustin must clear his name while evading trash assassins and exposing an evil organization that threatens the world.

The game takes inspiration from Super Nintendo RPGs and features six playable characters, each with unique field abilities and fighting styles. Players will be able to swap out characters on the fly, solve puzzles, and overcome obstacles with field abilities such as scrap, climb, and more. There will be no random encounters, as monsters will be visible on screen. Battles take place on a tile board, with turn-based combat, and timed hits added for critical damage and blocking attacks.
