Evaluation

Crossout is a free-to-play post-apocalyptic MMO vehicle combat game that has been running continuously since its launch on July 26, 2017. It operates as a live service with a constant rotation of seasons, battle passes, brawls, new parts, and balance updates — it is designed to run indefinitely. Development is visibly active right up to today's date (September 17, 2026). The "New Horizon" season launched on September 3, 2026, bringing new weapons, movement parts, brawl modes, and a battle pass that runs through November 25, 2026. A bug fix patch was released on September 8, 2026. On September 14, 2026, the developer posted a notice about upcoming changes to the "Adventure" mode, referencing a publicly shared roadmap and describing major features currently in development that will "change the Wasteland from 'before' to 'after'" — signaling significant upcoming changes in future updates. The July 14, 2026 development roadmap explicitly covers planned content and features from July through December 2026, confirming the developer's active planning horizon extends to the end of the year. DLC packs released as recently as July 23, 2026 ("Vengeance incarnate" bundle) further confirm the store remains active. This game has no foreseeable content end date.

About this game

Crossout — is a postapocalyptic MMO action game where you can create a unique design for an armoured vehicle from dozens of parts and then drive it into multiplayer battles raging on land and in the skies alike.

Key Features:

  • Unique vehicles, crafted by the players using a wide range of available parts: from maneuverable buggies and armoured aircraft flying high in the sky to heavy rovers on tracks and antigravitational battle platforms.

  • Complete freedom of creativity and millions of possible combinations: create vehicles of any shape using dozens of parts, wide variety of armour and weapons as well as support systems.

  • Advanced damage model: destroy any part of an enemy machine and it will affect the vehicle's performance immediately.

  • Huge arsenal of weapons: from chainsaws, drills and machine guns to missile launchers, drones and invisibility modules.

  • Your own workshop: create new parts and auction them at the in-game marketplace.

  • Trading options between players: almost every piece that you have gathered in the battle can be sold to other players.

  • Choose your own battle strategy: you can play by yourself or find a clan, participate in battles and tournaments. The only thing that matters is the Survival and Victory!

CROSSOUT - The Road to Apocalypse

In 2027, a mysterious disease outbreak swept over the entire planet. Some died instantly, while others experienced hallucinations and unbearable pain. The source of the disease, which journalists dubbed "Crossout", and the mechanism of its development could not be determined.

Within a few months, humanity was nearly wiped out. Only small groups of people were spared by Crossout, but it forced them to fight for survival in the desolate Wasteland. The survivors began to gradually change, and after about fifteen years, these changes affected their appearance as well.

But the core qualities of people remained unchanged: peace among them was impossible. The armoured vehicles, originally built for survival, became increasingly armed. People formed factions, each with their own unique knowledge, technologies and perspectives. Some of them strive to rebuild the old world, but for others the world is synonymous with chaos and destruction. But this fragile balance was shaken when the survivors encountered mysterious robots known as the Ravagers, which can erase memories.

How to link your Steam and Gaijin accounts

If you previously played Crossout or have a Gaijin account, we recommend that you link your Steam and Gaijin accounts when you first start the game through Steam.If this is not done when you first start the game from Steam, then in the future you will not be able to link your accounts.
We encourage you to sign up for a Gaijin account if you don't have one. This will allow you to continue to use all the additional features of the game.

Here is a brief guide on how to link your Steam and Gaijin accounts

Once you've launched the game, you will see these fields on your screen.

To link the accounts, enter your Gaijin account data (e-mail and password), click "Log in" and confirm that you want to link your accounts.

If you haven't got a Gaijin account or if you choose not to link accounts, you can log into the game through the "Sign in with Steam ID" button. But you will no longer be able to link your accounts in the future.

Attention! If you failed to link accounts by mistake and entered the game only through Steam, but still want your accounts to be linked, we recommend that you do not make any in-game actions, especially in the market, and contact support. We will try to help you.

If you previously played ‘War Thunder’, then most likely your accounts are already linked.
You can learn more about linking accounts at the Technical Support website.

Please, pay attention that there are 2 guides available:

  • How to link your Steam account to your email address (In case you've been playing using the game launcher)

  • How to link your Gaijin-account to your Steam-account (in case you've been playing the game using Steam)
