Off The Grid Launches on Steam With Crossplay and Cyberpunk Upgrades


Off The Grid

The wait is over—Off The Grid (OTG), the adrenaline-fueled cyberpunk battle royale from Gunzilla Games, is officially live on Steam as of July 17. This isn't just a standard launch; it's a full-blown expansion of the OTG universe, complete with crossplay, new Battle Pass sections, powerful weapon upgrades, and blockchain integration through the $GUN token. Whether you're a console warrior or a PC sharpshooter, there's never been a better time to jump in.

Let’s break down everything that’s happening in Off The Grid and how it fits into the evolving world of blockchain games.


Full Steam Launch and Crossplay Enabled

After debuting in Early Access back in June, Off The Grid has officially gone live on Steam, joining its existing PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and Epic Games Store versions. The big highlight? Full crossplay support. Gunzilla dropped a slick “PC VS Console Cinematic” trailer to hype up the inter-platform rivalry. It’s a major step forward for a title aiming to unify Web2 and Web3 gamers under one intense battle royale experience.

Players can wishlist Off The Grid on Steam now and dive into a world where your aim, your choices, and your cybernetic limbs define your legacy.


Battle Pass Sections 3 and 4 Are Now Live

With the new Steam release, the latest update brings fresh content to OTG’s Battle Pass, unlocking Sections 3 and 4. These sections come packed with themed gear that reflects the game’s gritty cyberpunk aesthetic.

  • Section 3: Drone Operator

    • Drone Operator character skin

    • Kite Buzzboy weapon

    • Hover Touch emote

    • Jaws of Victory M4 skin

  • Section 4: Zero Chill

    • Zero Chill outfit

    • Osprey Zero Chill weapon

    • Cold Snap emote

    • Matching Osprey skin

The festive "Red, White, and Boom" event has now ended, and its exclusive content has been removed from the pass—so if you missed out, you're out of luck. But these new sections bring even more personality to your battlefield presence.


Gameplay Updates: New Attachments and Cyberlimb Tweaks

One of the most exciting additions in this update is a suite of new attachments for the Kite SMG, including stock, barrel, grip, and underbarrel mods. These enhancements allow players to further customize their builds and adapt to different combat scenarios.

Significant changes also came to cyberlimbs:

  • Buzzkilla now fires in three-round bursts, with damage per shot reduced but overall output increased.

  • Size increased by 30%, but HP dropped from 500 to 400.

  • Hammerheads and Kinetic Shield limbs received animation and camera fixes.

  • Melee no longer interrupts shoulder-switching, making fights smoother and more responsive.

These changes help make Off The Grid's modular gameplay more balanced and thrilling, especially in fast-paced matches where adaptability is key.


UI Fixes and Lobby Improvements

Beyond combat, the patch brings quality-of-life fixes:

  • Missing hint descriptions in the lobby have been restored.

  • A loot interaction bug in Marshlands is fixed.

  • Zipline climbing exploits have been patched.

It's the kind of polish that shows Gunzilla is serious about refining the player experience for both new recruits and seasoned veterans.


Blockchain Integration and $GUN Token Expansion

For fans of blockchain games, Off The Grid represents one of the most promising integrations of real asset ownership in a competitive shooter.

On July 10, Gunzilla launched its $GUN token on Solana, expanding from its original Avalanche network. This move is part of a larger multi-chain strategy aimed at reducing onboarding friction and boosting liquidity.

Highlights include:

  • A new Solana-themed NFT skin pack

  • Over $666,000 in trading volume over 30 days despite market dips

  • Support from Blackhole DEX for future liquidity pools

Players can trade loot directly on the marketplace using $GUN tokens, allowing for true ownership and monetization of in-game assets.


GUNZ Mainnet and Marketplace Milestones

Gunzilla’s custom GUNZ blockchain is evolving fast:

  • 21,000+ players migrated to the mainnet

  • 17.3 million wallets created

  • 413,000 HEXes decoded

  • $13 million in trades processed last month

Players can now stake validator NFTs, access wallets, and track assets seamlessly through Gunzilla’s ecosystem. Tools like DEGENRADAR and OTG Meta offer analytics for both market trends and gameplay builds—bridging the gap between gaming and on-chain transparency.


New Game Modes and Weapon Enhancements

The latest content also introduces:

  • Four new arenas for 20-player free-for-all deathmatches

  • A new Cyberlancer cyberlimb, featuring a dash and bleed effect

  • Enhanced damage for the Kestrel sniper

  • Faster fire rates for the AZV100

And for the tactically inclined, PC players now enjoy gyro aiming and dual-scope views in both first and third person.

A ranked mode is being quietly tested in the background, fine-tuning matchmaking for competitive play.


What’s Coming Next for Off The Grid?

Gunzilla’s roadmap hints at even bigger things:

  • New GUNZ site redesign

  • OpenSea integration for expanded NFT liquidity

  • Teased partnerships via the HEX reveal system

  • Launch of a 60-hour cinematic campaign on Teardrop Island

Led by District 9’s Neill Blomkamp, Off The Grid is shaping up to be a rare hybrid of cinematic storytelling, competitive intensity, and blockchain-backed ownership.


Final Thoughts

Off The Grid isn’t just another cyberpunk shooter—it’s a testbed for what next-gen blockchain gaming can look like. With seamless crossplay, powerful customization, and real economic value tied to in-game actions, OTG is a shining example of how the lines between gaming and digital ownership are blurring.

If you’ve been waiting for a blockchain-integrated shooter that plays as good as it looks, this might be your moment. Suit up, augment your limbs, and drop into Teardrop Island—because Off The Grid is only just getting started.
