Description

About the Game

From the veteran team behind Void Bastards and Card Hunter, Wild Bastards has you travel from planet to planet to recruit, manage and gun sling with a team of 13 outlaws, each of whom has their own weaponry, special power, and growth tree. On planets, you’ll wrangle loot and start showdowns that are then played out in intense, bite-sized shootouts.

The Wild Bastards were the most deadly gang in the galaxy until a posse from the puritanical magnate Jebediah Chaste eliminated one outlaw after another. Faced with their own mortality, the two remaining members have teamed up with the Drifter, a mysterious sentient spacecraft, to find and resurrect the dead gang members as they flee to the mythical Homestead.



Intense Showdowns

Prove you’re the ultimate gunslinger by blasting an array of enemies in bullet-flying shootouts.

Tactical FPS Combat

Use your wits to overcome crafty enemies that utilize cover, flank you, and employ a huge variety of special moves from teleportation to homing poisonous quills.



13 Outlaws to Play

Rebuild a gang of 13 outlaws, each with their own unique weapon, stunt, personality, relationships, and ability tree.

Build & Maintain Relationships

The gang know each other well, but that doesn’t mean they like each other. It’s your job to manage their dynamic relationships, but good luck getting feuding outlaws to ride together.

Keep The Gang Thriving

Accumulate resources to heal injured gang members, level up characters, improve relationships, and more.



Strategize for Victory

Evaluate each planet’s terrain, enemies, and traits before selecting which gang members you want to land there. Collect items, level up, and use special locations carefully to turn the odds in your favor!

An Ever-Changing, Lawless Galaxy

Roam the procedurally-generated galactic sectors and planets with varying parameters such as gravity, terrain features, weather, and more.



Challenge Mode

After completing the main campaign, a challenge mode unlocks to offer a sequence of challenge sectors with increasingly difficult levels and mutators to modify the play experience.

It feels like im missing something. The gameplay is boring :/, the fights are bad and unfair, the mechanics and characters feels simple, or uncomplete. I constantly felt like if you added a little more depth to some

I enjoyed Void Bastards even though it had some flaws. After about a half hour with Wild Bastards, I feel like the developers decided to focus on the negatives from Void Bastards and build off that. I think the biggest

This is not an FPS game and I feel it is deceptively named and marketed. Void Bastards was a rogue like FPS with decent mechanics. This is a visual novel gluing together a board game with the cracks filled in by a bare

Blue Manchu delivers again. A successor to Void Bastards, Wild Bastards keeps the cool visual style and roguelike elements while adding so much more. The comic book style, the great use of color, and the sci-fi western

Void Bastards really was an enjoyable, fun and great experience... This, on the other hand, is not. From the wonky difficulty, to the needlessly punishing mechanics, it is just unpleasant to play.

Was a big fan of Void Bastards so was immediately interested in this wacky looking game. If you like one you'll probably like the other. The unique style and humor is all here and the dialogue is half the reason to play
