Grand Outlaws Global Release Set for Late Summer 2026, Android Open Beta Live Now

Hardbit has announced that Grand Outlaws - RP Life Online will officially launch worldwide on Android and iOS in late summer 2026, following a successful eight-month beta testing period. With strong player engagement and positive performance results, the open-world action game is preparing for its full global release while inviting players to jump into its already-live Android open beta.

Designed as a free-to-play, mobile-first open-world action game, Grand Outlaws combines roleplaying, competitive multiplayer, driving, and large-scale online interactions in an experience inspired by the open-ended freedom of GTA-style games.

Android Open Beta Is Live

Players don't have to wait until launch to experience Grand Outlaws. The game is already available worldwide through an international open beta on Android via Google Play, allowing players to explore the world early while providing valuable feedback ahead of the official release.

According to Hardbit, the beta is helping refine game balance, prioritize new content, and further develop the title's evolving roleplaying systems before the global launch on both Android and iOS.

"Grand Outlaws is one of the most ambitious projects we've ever taken on. The international beta on Android is already live and growing, and by the end of summer the full Grand Outlaws experience goes global-on both Android and iOS. We want the launch version to feel like something the community helped build, not something handed to them," said Michael Vaksman, CEO of Hardbit.

A Massive Open World Built Around Player Choice

Grand Outlaws places players inside a persistent online world spread across two expansive islands. From the sun-soaked streets of Suburbia to the neon skyline of City, every encounter is shaped by real players and the choices they make.

Players can build their reputation through a variety of activities, including:

  • Open-world PvP combat
  • High-speed police chases
  • High-stakes heists
  • Battle Royale matches
  • Competitive standoff battles
  • Skill-based driving challenges

The game's emphasis on live online interaction allows players to forge alliances, create rivalries, and develop their own stories within an evolving multiplayer environment.

Key Features

High-End Mobile Graphics

Hardbit promises some of the best visuals available in the mobile open-world action genre, combining detailed graphics with optimization designed to run smoothly across both flagship smartphones and mid-range devices.

Multiple Game Modes

Grand Outlaws launches with several core multiplayer experiences, including:

  • Open World
  • Battle Royale
  • Deathmatch
  • Racing

Additional limited-time modes are also planned for future updates, including:

  • Squid Games
  • Food Fight
  • Zombie Mode

Deep Roleplaying Systems

The game's RP mechanics focus on meaningful player interaction through alliances, rivalries, and player-driven storytelling. Hardbit says these systems will continue evolving based on community feedback collected during the beta.

Skill-Based Progression

Grand Outlaws features a progression system centered on player skill rather than pay-to-win mechanics. Players can unlock hundreds of cosmetics and items while customizing vehicles and mastering a wide variety of weapons, including pistols, shotguns, sniper rifles, and more.

Built by Industry Veterans

Hardbit describes itself as a team of experienced developers passionate about pushing the boundaries of gaming. Members of the studio have previously contributed to notable titles including Alan Wake 2, World of Tanks Blitz, Hello Neighbor, Deadside, Divinity: Original Sin, Blitzkrieg 3, and Pixel Gun 3D.

With Grand Outlaws entering the final stretch before launch, Hardbit is positioning the title as an ambitious addition to the growing mobile open-world genre, combining GTA-inspired gameplay with multiplayer roleplaying and competitive online modes.

Grand Outlaws is scheduled to launch globally on Android and iOS in late summer 2026, while the Android open beta remains available for players eager to get an early look at the experience.
