Behold Studios and Raw Fury invite players into a mysterious handcrafted dungeon where exploration, crafting, and a good meal could mean the difference between success and disaster.
Nothing brings friends together quite like exploring a dangerous dungeon and arguing over who’s responsible for dinner.
Deep Dish Dungeon, the new exploration-focused dungeon crawler from Behold Studios and publisher Raw Fury, launches October 13, 2026, on PC and Xbox platforms, including Xbox Game Pass.
The game blends dungeon exploration, crafting, cooking, and cooperative play into an adventure that rewards curiosity and careful preparation.
And if you’ve ever thought a dungeon crawler needed more campfire cooking, congratulations. Someone finally understood the assignment.
Explore a Dungeon Full of Secrets
Deep Dish Dungeon takes players through interconnected corridors, mysterious rooms, and hidden passageways inside a handcrafted dungeon.
Rather than focusing exclusively on combat, the game encourages players to investigate their surroundings.
Environmental puzzles, concealed treasures, and enemies with different behaviors all contribute to the adventure.
The deeper you explore, the more you’ll uncover about the dungeon and the mysteries waiting within it.
But rushing forward without preparation might not be the smartest strategy.
Crafting and Cooking Are Part of Survival
Exploration is only half the adventure.
Players gather resources during their journeys and return to a campsite to prepare for the next expedition.
Collected materials can be used to craft tools, improve equipment, and prepare meals.
Cooking is especially important because different recipes provide effects that influence your character’s statistics.
That makes food a meaningful part of progression rather than an optional side activity.
You aren’t just making dinner.
You’re preparing to survive whatever horrible thing is waiting behind the next door.
Bring Two Friends Along for the Adventure
Deep Dish Dungeon supports solo play or online cooperative adventures with up to three players total.
Players can work together to solve puzzles, share discoveries, gather resources, and navigate the dungeon’s challenges.
According to Behold Studios, cooperation emphasizes helping one another rather than competing for individual success.
It’s a fitting approach for a game where knowledge and resourcefulness are just as important as fighting.
Of course, whether your friends actually share the food they cooked is an entirely different question.
From the Creators of Chroma Squad
Deep Dish Dungeon comes from Behold Studios, the developer behind Knights of Pen & Paper and Chroma Squad.
Those games established the studio’s reputation for combining recognizable genres with distinctive personalities.
For Deep Dish Dungeon, the team is bringing that creativity into an atmospheric exploration experience.
Publisher Raw Fury, whose catalog includes titles such as Blue Prince and Cassette Beasts, is handling the release.

Just make sure someone remembers to bring dinner.
Preferably someone who can cook.
