Grand Outlaws brings chaos, crime, and car chases as it soft launches on Android

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, gearing up for a full release later in 2025. Imagine GTA Online condensed into a mobile format, yet still packed with explosive action.

Grand Outlaws isn't just another open-world game with a half-empty map. It plunges you into a fully interactive playground where chaos reigns supreme. Whether you're battling it out in Battle Royale, speeding through the streets in Racing mode, or engaging in intense Deathmatch, the game offers a variety of modes to keep you hooked. Plus, the deep customization options let you deck out your character and vehicles with outrageous skins and mods.

Cross-platform play is on the horizon, with PC and console support expected later this year. For now, Android users in the US get the first taste of the action. The game is slated for a global rollout throughout 2025, expanding to iOS, Steam, and consoles like PlayStation and Switch, bringing the anarchy to every platform imaginable.

Hardbit is not stopping there. They're promising more excitement with live concerts, brand crossovers, and a story mode that promises cinematic experiences. You’ll have the chance to build and customize your own hideout, collect trophies, and flaunt your criminal empire. If this sounds like the kind of game your parents wouldn't let you play at 12, well, that's probably the point.
