Spin, drift, smash & gun your way across a post-apocalyptic world in Gearshifters!

Developed by Red Phantom Games and published by Numskull Games, Gearshifters is racing onto screens this Autumn. The high-intensity top-down vehicle combat game launches this October and will be available digitally on Xbox and Steam stores, as well as both physically and digitally on Nintendo Switch and PlayStation 4.

In the 2060s, after "The Collapse" of capitalism and democracy, a rookie driver, known as a Gearshifter, delivers critical packages from a secluded HQ to imperilled neutral zones. Making dangerous transport runs means battling aggressive factions of weapon-laden vehicles and their mega-machine bosses. Players will race across the dystopian landscape in the hope of reaching the mysterious Citadel where world-changing secrets await discovery.

In this modernised shoot-em-up experience, players should expect rogue-like elements as they traverse a post-societal world in their solo adventure. Taking the most perilous routes, fulfilling high-stakes delivery missions to ensure the safe arrival of precious cargo - only the most skilled Gearshifters will survive.

Gearshifters will feature nine different zones, 27 stages, and a customisable car. Players can choose from three gameplay modes:

  • Arcade - for those wanting to get straight into the action

  • Standard - for those wanting a narrative-led experience

  • Deadly - for those brave hardcore players

Released in October, there will be physical editions of Gearshifters on Switch and PS4, including a Standard version (game only) and Collectors edition (including game, OST CD, unique limited edition clothing patch as well as art cards).
