Renowned streamer Dr DisRespect and his gaming studio, Midnight Society, have finally released the first look at their much-awaited project. Although it was initially titled Project Moon, the game was re-branded as DEADROP.

The reveal took place earlier today at the LA Founder's event. Coupled with that, selected fans with battle passes were allowed to test out the game for the first time.

Fans have been eagerly anticipating the title since it was first teased by the YouTube star back in late 2021. With the game's first snippets being viewed by plenty, the gaming community has gained a lot of insight. In that regard, this article will focus on everything known so far about Dr DisRespect's first gaming title.


Everything we know so far about Dr DisRespect's game

Although the game is still in its nascent stages, fans have been able to procure some vital information. According to Dr DisRespect and the gaming studio, DEADROP will be the first "Vertical Extraction Shooter Game." In other words, it is going to be the first battle royal FPS game which will require users to move vertically.

The typically spacious maps of most shooter games will be altered by a more lateral mode of motion and gameplay, as showcased by the video and logo.

The game's official website has revealed that it is set in the backdrop of what is known as the "Climate Wars."

Furthermore, the game will feature a massive city-state construction known as "Refiner State," which has been built to generate a drug identified as Space Dust. It will be concocted using contaminants and toxins from the air, with resource-intensive structures becoming primary targets for rival factions.

The two main factions are called the "Skins" and "Syns." Both the group's participants are expected to go against each other. Along with these two, there will be another additional faction called the "Cleaners."

The gaming studio has also revealed the minimum graphics requirements for the game. Taking to Twitter, the official page of Midnight Studios revealed:
