'Crossout' Early Access Update Introduces Clan Wars

by Rainier on Nov. 16, 2016 @ 9:19 a.m. PST

Set in a post-apocalyptic world devastated by an alien invasion and human genetic testing gone awry, Crossout is a new team based multiplayer vehicle combat game.

Crossout tests players’ creativity in building, upgrading and customizing deadly armored vehicles to destroy enemies in open player vs player combat.

No two vehicles in Crossout are the same, as players can create any kind of combat vehicle from the speediest buggy to the heaviest of off-road vehicles to reflect their warrior sense of gameplay. Offering complete customization, Crossout gives players thousands of possibilities to design their vehicle, including shape, armor, weapons, support systems and, cosmetic enhancements. Visit your own garage to build new advanced mechanisms and sell them via the in-game auction system. 

Players also have multiple options when it comes to mass destruction - combat vehicles can be equipped with an explosive range of weapons from chainsaws, power drills and machine guns, to rocket launchers, flying drones and stealth generators. Featuring an advanced damage model, destroy any part of an enemy machine and it will affect that vehicle's performance.


While fighting for a famed position on the leaderboards, participating clans will also compete for a rare resource used to craft powerful relics - Uranium.

In Crossout players build their own combat vehicles from the ground up using a myriad of parts unlocked through combat. In Clan Wars, two teams of four clan members each meet on their own customized vehicles in different locations such as Factory, Powerplant and Rock City. To win, players not only have to develop their own tactics on the battlefield but also find the right synergy in vehicles as they prepare for battle. After each fight, successful warriors are rewarded with Uranium, a rare resource that can be used to craft powerful items and also be sold for good profit on the market. Additionally, at the end of every week, the 30 best clans receive their fair share of the precious metal, distributed evenly among all members - even to those that did not participate in this week’s combat. As only one team per clan can be active at the same time, it is thus advised that clans send only their most determined warriors!

One of the blueprints relying on Uranium is the Flamethrower, a frightening weapon for those survivors that prefer to get up close and personal with their enemies. Offered by the Engineers faction, this weapon is the first item of many to be added as a reward for participation in Clan Wars. Future updates will include additional challenges and items to craft for those who master the new mode, as well as more maps, weapons and modules for all players.

Key Features:

  • Unique vehicles, crafted by the players using a wide range of available parts: from nimble buggies to heavily tracked off-road vehicles or combat platforms on antigrav fields.
  • Complete freedom of creativity and thousands of possible combinations. Create vehicles of any shape using dozens of parts, wide variety of armour and weapons as well as support systems.
  • Advanced damage model: destroy any part of an enemy machine and it will affect the vehicle's performance immediately.
  • Huge arsenal of weapons. From chain saws, power-drills over machine guns to rocket launchers, flying drones and stealth generators.
  • Your own workshop: create new, advanced parts and auction them at the in-game marketplace.
  • Trading options between players: every piece that you have gethered in the battle can be sold to other players
  • Choose your own battle strategy! The only thing matters is the Survival and Victory!
