Each team will need to grapple, shoot, and smash their way to victory by collecting $50k in goods from locked-down, high-end shopping districts – or from the opposing team! In rapid-fire, 15-minute matches, players raid increasingly larger stores, mod lethal new weapons like chain-saw-shovels and poison-crossbows, and afterward, level up with new perks and clothing.

In addition to unique combat moves, special abilities, clothing, and perks for each leader, Smash + Grab lets you customize your gang’s loadout. First, choose a lieutenant – each with their own upgradeable look and perks – and then pick the class for the rest of your five-person gang. Once you’ve readied up, victory can be yours through clever teamwork and smart tactical plays – with a couple of insidious ambushes and old-school beatdowns thrown in for good measure.

United Front Games' competitive, team-based, online fighter SMASH+GRAB launches today on Steam Early Access for $19.99 USD, and will be on sale during its launch week for only $16.99 USD.

Additional features and content will be announced regularly throughout Early Access.

Designed to be instantly fun and rewarding as a ‘pick up and play’ online experience, Smash + Grab’s Early Access release in September will be fully featured and include an offline practice mode alongside the initial two multiplayer modes and maps.
