Calling all Ork fans and gearheads! Warhammer 40K: Speed Freeks, the free-to-play multiplayer combat racer, has a confirmed Early Access release date.
Warhammer 40K: Speed Freeks Gets Early Access Release Date
Speed Freeks will roar into Steam Early Access on August 6th, kicking off its first season. After some time in Early Access for refinement, the game is expected to receive a full launch later this year. The best part? It’s completely free-to-play, so dive in and experience the mayhem without breaking the bank.
About the Game
If you’re new to Speed Freeks, here’s the rundown. It’s a car combat game set in the brutal universe of Warhammer 40K, starring the notoriously violent Ork race. Who better to pilot (or should we say “steer” loosely) vehicles designed to obliterate opponents with rocket launchers strapped to the hood?
Built with Unreal Engine 5, Speed Freeks promises a visually stunning and brutally satisfying experience. Imagine Orks tearing each other apart in souped-up buggies and heavily-armed tanks – that’s the kind of glorious mayhem you can expect.
If you enjoyed classic car combat games like Twisted Metal or the vehicular mayhem of Mad Max, Speed Freeks will feel right at home. It injects a dose of the Orks’ signature brand of anarchic fun into the grim darkness of the 41st millennium.
Speed Freeks boasts several game modes to keep things interesting. In Kill Konvoy, two teams of eight players race alongside their team’s gigantic Stompa and try to slow down the opposing team’s Stompa. Deff Rally throws teams of eight into a race where they fight for control of capture points. The Steam page mentions “Intense Racing,” but it’s unclear if this is a separate mode or just a general description of the gameplay.
So, get ready to rev your engines and prepare to unleash some WAAAGH!-powered destruction. Warhammer 40K: Speed Freeks speeds onto Early Access on August 6th.
