The island is crawling with hostile Salmonids, so you’ll need to put your ink weapons and various gadgets to good use. It’s not all lonely work, though; the Deep Cut members will occasionally jump into the fray in their machines to assist you, acting as platforms for high jumps or joining in for some coordinated fire.

Your gear packs some unique utility—whether it’s dashing forward to slice through foes or automatically painting the surrounding turf. You can use salvaged parts to buff your attack power or widen your hit range. The core gameplay loop involves scrapping with enemies to gather loot, which you then lug back to your hideout to upgrade your arsenal, unlock new zones, and peel back the layers of the island's secrets.
