Early Access gives developers the ability to test their games with the public like never before. Crossout is just another example of a game that uses an extended beta period to fine-tune the experience. In testing since 2016, the title has not yet been officially launched. But it’s available on PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC as an open beta. This free-to-play game sees players battle in vehicles on large-scale maps as they try to be the last competitor or team alive.

Unlike other vehicular combat games, the focus within Crossout is not on historically accurate tanks or armored vehicles. Instead, players build their own cars and customize them as they see fit. This makes sense when you consider that the game takes place in a post-apocalyptic future. A devastating nuclear war led to the collapse of human civilization. Meanwhile, the genetic mutations made the remaining humans more aggressive. All of this has led to an all out war between the remnants of society as they fight in the wastelands.

Personalization

The great attraction of Crossout is the customization of the vehicle. Players can design and build their own gun cars as they see fit. There are only two modules that you have to adapt to the cars, a cabin and a chassis. After that, you are free to add or remove items until you are happy with your creation.

Do you want to create an armored vehicle? Go ahead, just keep in mind that this will be a bigger and less maneuverable goal.

Crossout also features a sophisticated physics engine that will simulate how your vehicle reacts to the world. Aspects such as center of gravity and weight distribution are taken into consideration. Wrong designs lead to bulky vehicles that can roll.

It is also important to note that the different factions offer a wide range of design philosophies. For example, Loons prefer fast, agile buggies with little or no armor. Meanwhile, the Dawn’s Children faction uses high-tech armor and plasma weapons. Choosing which faction to side with is important to how you like to play.
