In this behind-the-scenes cosmic journey, join the developers at Blue Manchu as they delve into the core of Wild Bastards' gameplay. Discover how you will travel through the galaxy, select the perfect squad of outlaws, navigate the map on which skirmishes and looting take place, and strategize for victory. The developers also show how Wild Bastards' combat works and how your squad can coordinate to make sure you come out alive from any shootout. Today's video also unveils for the first time never-before-seen enemy types, playable gang members and a brand-new playable map.
 
Wild Bastards finds its lawbreakers hunted and nearly eradicated by Jebediah Chaste, a ruthlessly puritanical magnate. After killing all but two of the Bastards, Jebediah’s final targets are miraculously saved by a mysterious, sentient spaceship known as The Drifter. The Bastards flee an unwinnable standoff, exploring an ever-changing and lawless galaxy rife with precious weapons and spoils as well as grisly fates in a grand attempt to resurrect their compatriots while living to steal another day.
 
While working to demystify The Drifter’s intentions in saving them, you will amass a gang of 13 playable and uniquely talented criminals, managing the relationships between them and guiding their growth. Juggle injuries and feuds while plotting a path through the galaxy, exploring and fleecing planets and, of course, shooting anyone or anything who gets in the way. Prevailing through Wild Bastards’ campaign also unlocks a Challenge Mode which adds modifiers and a steadily ramping challenge to keep outlaws on their toes.
