"Dustborn is perhaps 2024’s most misunderstood game. Upon its release in August, an unfortunate barrage of online criticisms quickly usurped any opportunity for meaningful discourse about it. But having actually played the game, we wholeheartedly believe that its twisting story and vibrant world are worth experiencing."

This description from GLAAD, featured in their list of standout titles from 2024, is an affirmation of what the development team set out to achieve. Dustborn is a heartfelt story about inclusion and diversity in a world that often feels hostile to those ideals.

"Being nominated for a GLAAD Media Award means so much to me, both as a creator and as a gay man," writes Christoffer Grav, Senior Art Director at Red Thread Games. "With Dustborn, we set out to celebrate diversity and give a voice to those who often feel unseen. This recognition is a reminder of why representation in media matters and inspires me to keep telling stories that make a difference."

We are incredibly honoured and grateful for the nomination, and proud to be in such inspiring company.
