The long-awaited gameWild Bastards” will be released for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series and Nintendo Switch along with its previously announced version for PC (Steam) in 2024, as announced by publisher Modus Games and developer Blue Manchu.
Developed by the experienced team behind titles like Void Bastards and Card Hunter, Wild Bastards takes you on a journey from planet to planet to recruit, manage and take on a team of 13 outlaws, each with their own weapon, special power and growth tree.
On the planets, you will face a world of looting and confrontations that develop into intense and frenetic shootouts. The Wild Bastards used to be the deadliest gang in the galaxy until a gang of Puritan tycoon Jebediah Chaste eliminated one after another of the outlaws. Faced with their own mortality, the two remaining members have teamed up with the Wanderer, a mysterious sentient spaceship, to find and resurrect the deceased gang members as they flee to the mythical Homestead.
