Warhammer 40,000: Speed Freeks is a free-to-play, class-based, multiplayer racing-shooter mayhem with Orks set in the badass Warhammer 40,000 universe.

Fans of speed and dakka can now live out their Warhammer 40,000 fantasies, driving scrappy vehicles and unloading bombastic weapons in a Speedwaaagh to the death.      

Players can choose from various classes of vehicle, including damage, tank and support wagons, with distinct abilities that target a variety of playstyles. They’ll drive them to victory across multiple maps in this explosive take on the combat racing and shooter genres.

This fresh take on the vehicular shooter has players racing to capture points and fighting for bigger scores, with teams pushing pedal to metal in their scrappy gas guzzlers. 

Warhammer 40,000: Speed Freeks is not just any ol’ vehicular combat game, DIS IS DA KULT TO OF SPEED!

Warhammer 40,000: Speed Freeks is now available via Steam Early Access.

Join us in the grim darkness of the far future, where only the fastest, cunning, and most brutal Orks will prevail. 

Warhammer 40,000: Speed Freeks enters Early Access today for a limited time as the development team prepares for the full launch later this year, marking the start of Season 1. 

Early Access includes:

  • Two game modes: In Deff Rally, 16 players race to capture points and fight to control them in succession before a sprint to the finish. Kill Konvoy features teams racing alongside formidable Stompas, battling and bombing their enemy to help ensure their Stompa reaches the finish line first.
  • Eight vehicles to master and customize to help ensure victory.
  • Six epic battlefields representing the vast, hostile, and diverse grim-dark universe of Warhammer 40,000.

  • More than 100 customization items: vehicle kits, paint jobs, rims, and more. 

Early Access is just the beginning for Warhammer 40,000: Speed Freeks. Season 1, the game’s first major update, will launch later this year, including Ork customization for players to customize their mascot-like Pit Boss. Players can also look forward to a new vehicle, a new map, and other improvements.
