There's a new player in the sandbox gaming scene, and it's ready to stir up some chaos. Grand Outlaws, developed by Hardbit Studio, is set to soft launch on the Play Store in the US, promising a blend of high-octane action and open-world freedom. Envision a compact version of GTA Online that fits perfectly in your pocket, complete with the same level of excitement and noise.

Grand Outlaws isn't just another open-world game with a barren map; it's a fully interactive playground where explosions are a common occurrence, often for the sheer thrill of it. Players can dive into various game modes including Battle Royale, Racing, and Deathmatch, or spend their time customizing their characters and vehicles with outlandish skins and mods.

While the game is initially rolling out to Android users in the US, cross-platform play is on the horizon, with support for PC and consoles planned for later this year. A broader release across iOS, Steam, and consoles like PlayStation and Switch is slated for 2025, ensuring that the anarchy spreads far and wide.

Hardbit Studio is not stopping there; they have big plans including live concerts, brand collaborations, and a cinematic story mode. Players will have the opportunity to build and personalize their hideouts, collect trophies, and flaunt their burgeoning criminal empires. If this sounds like a game your parents wouldn't approve of when you were younger, that's precisely the vibe Hardbit is aiming for.
