Coal Duty 2026

About

Coal Duty is a 1-5 player co-op extraction horror-comedy. Meet the state coal quota in procedurally generated mines, coordinating over proximity voice chat while something in the dark listens in. Spend your tickets, plan your escape. Some miners get out. The state does not confirm this.

What is happening now

Coal Duty is a co-op extraction horror-comedy adventure heading to Steam Early Access on October 27. Developer Corecrew Games is positioning the game around cooperative mining mechanics paired with comedic and horror elements, though specifics on gameplay systems and scope remain limited ahead of its early access debut. The game's Early Access launch marks the first public opportunity to experience what Corecrew is building. As with most early access releases, the initial version will likely evolve based on player feedback, though the studio has not yet detailed what features or content will be included at launch or what the development roadmap looks like.
