Available now and appearing in Steam Next Fest, players can get an exclusive first look at this reimagined roguelite sim, set in a post-apocalyptic United States.

Redeveloped from the ground up to be broader, more expansive, and more ambitious than ever, Badlands Crew introduces a host of brand-new features and innovations to the series. For the first time, players will command a customizable land vehicle, navigating the dangerous and desolate Badlands while managing their crew and engaging in intense tactical battles.

What to expect from the Badlands Crew Demo?

Want to dive into the brand-new demo? Here are the list of things players can expect to play around and experiment with once they get started:

  • 3 Exciting Missions – Get a glimpse of the unforgiving Badlands with a selection of missions from the dynamic and evolving campaign
  • Battle Wagon Customisation – Design your ultimate fuel-guzzling Battle Wagon, armed to the teeth using an extensive vehicle builder.
  • Intense Combat Encounters – Defend yourself against savage militia groups ruling the Badlands in fierce, tactical battles.
  • Crewmate Recruitment & Customisation – Bolster your ranks with fierce crewmates. Level them up and customise their outfits and weapons to suit your strategy.

More about Badlands Crew

As a protector of The Citadel, the last outpost of the surviving innocents, you must journey into the lawless Badlands to conquer crazed factions of marauders and defeat their evil chief, The Orator. To succeed you must construct and customize your ferocious battle wagon to adapt to the lethal threats you will face.

Use deep and dynamic vehicle customization to equip your wagon with a range of components and weapons such as flamethrowers, sniper turrets, gatling guns, lookout towers, medical stations, wheels, suspension, fuel tanks, engines and exhausts. Build your battle wagon, your way…

The Badlands is a vast desert landscape, filled with strongholds and outposts to overcome on your journey. Your decisions change the campaign map as faction influence declines and grows based on the outcome of your battles. Smart decision-making within the safety of The Citadel when planning routes, customizing vehicles and training your crew is just as important as critical calls made during the heat of battle.


Badlands Crew is set to launch in 2025 on Steam. Join the action and blaze your way through the Badlands by downloading the demo now and throughout Steam Next Fest.
