- Grand Outlaws has officially entered a soft launch phase in the US, following an earlier postponement
- The game is currently accessible exclusively on Android devices
- A worldwide launch, along with an iOS version, is planned for the near future
Following a postponement earlier this year, Grand Outlaws has finally arrived. Hardbit Studio has confirmed the open-world mobile shooter is now in soft launch on Google Play for US players. As of today, May 15th, you can download and play it. The global audience will need to wait a little longer.
The developers stated they used the extra time to expand game locations, enhance overall performance, and add more content. This effort has resulted in a broader and more stable experience in preparation for the title's full launch later this year.
At launch, Grand Outlaws features three main gameplay modes: Battle Royale, Racing, and Deathmatch. Each mode is designed for fast-paced, short-session action, with intuitive mobile controls and quick access to weapons, vehicles, and customization options. Players can freely switch between modes or simply explore the open world at their leisure.
While this initial phase is limited to Android, Hardbit Studio has announced a detailed multi-platform roadmap. The full Android and Epic Games Store release is targeted for July or August. This will be followed by releases on iOS, and PC via Steam and Epic in October. Ports for PlayStation, Xbox, and Nintendo Switch consoles are slated for 2026. Cross-platform multiplayer functionality is also under development.
Future plans for Grand Outlaws include significant content updates, introducing new modes like Heists and Destruction Derby, live in-game events, a full cinematic story campaign, and expanded customization for characters and player hideouts. The studio is also considering brand collaborations and seasonal content releases.

Commenting on the game's vision, Lead Game Designer Sergey Agafonov remarked: “Here, you can shoot cash from a firearm, steal a car while dressed as Buttman, and win a Battle Royale match—all before your coffee goes cold.”
For now, Android users in the United States are the first to experience Grand Outlaws, with the soft launch beginning on May 15th.
