There's a new sandbox in town, and it's not here to play nice. Grand Outlaws from Hardbit Studio is soft launching on the Play Store in the US, and it's going all-in on chaos, car chases, and open-world mayhem. Imagine a mobile version of GTA Online, compact enough to fit in your pocket but just as thrilling and explosive.
Instead of a sparse open world, Grand Outlaws offers a fully interactive playground where explosions are commonplace and often for no good reason. Players can dive into various game modes like Battle Royale, Racing, and Deathmatch, or simply enjoy customizing their characters with outrageous skins and modded vehicles.
Cross-platform play is on the horizon, with support for PC and consoles planned later this year. Currently, Android users in the US are the first to experience it. A broader release is slated for throughout 2025, encompassing iOS, Steam, and consoles such as PlayStation and Switch, spreading the anarchy far and wide.
Hardbit is also promising an array of exciting features in the pipeline. Look forward to live concerts, brand crossovers, and a cinematic story mode. Players will soon have the ability to personalize their hideouts, collect trophies, and flaunt their criminal empires. If this sounds like something your parents wouldn't want you playing at 12... well, that's probably the point.
While you wait for the full release, don't miss out on this list of the best open-world games to play on Android!
Commenting on the project, the Hardbit team stated, “We’ve helped create games that players love. Now we’re building a world with no limits. Grand Outlaws isn’t just a game — it’s our boldest project yet.”
Grand Outlaws launches on April 16th on the Play Store in the US, with much more to come. Check out the trailer above to get a taste of the excitement awaiting you.
