In Escape From Duckov, your Hideout serves as the central hub where you regroup after expeditions. This space allows interactions with characters and crafting without venturing outdoors. Initially sparse, it becomes fully equipped through mission completion, evolving into a vital operational center.
Core Features of the Hideout

Five key elements define the Hideout’s early-game utility:
- Jeff: The primary mission provider who assists with progression through task assignments and rewards.
- Storage Facility: Organized compartments for securing loot gathered during expeditions.
- Trading Hub: Dynamic marketplace for item transactions, occasionally offering rare crafting schematics.
- Progression Station: Machine enabling character upgrades through a resource-dependent development tree.
- Crafting Area: Workstation for constructing and enhancing equipment production modules.
Expanding Hideout Personnel
New characters join your base by fulfilling their external world objectives. Finding and assisting these individuals during expeditions leads to permanent relocation to your Hideout, a critical requirement for endgame objectives involving planetary escape preparations.
