Publisher Wired Productions and developer Caged Element have officially announced the console release dates for their multiplayer combat racer, Warhammer 40,000: Speed Freeks. The game will hit PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S digitally on May 21, with a physical edition following on July 16.
Warhammer 40,000: Speed Freeks delivers chaotic, high-octane survival racing set in the grimdark universe, featuring a cast of speed-obsessed Orks. Players face off in 8v8 team-based battles using heavily armed and armored vehicles. The project originally debuted in Steam Early Access on August 6, 2024, followed by its full 1.0 release on May 22, 2025.
The game has been a hit on Steam, maintaining an 85% positive rating. Players have praised its addictive gameplay loop, solid visuals, and the impressive level of detail on the Ork vehicles.
It’s worth noting that a wave of Warhammer classics recently returned to Steam in mid-April, including Warhammer: Shadow of the Horned Rat, Final Liberation: Warhammer Epic 40,000, Warhammer 40,000: Chaos Gate, Warhammer 40,000: Rites of War, Warhammer: Dark Omen, Warhammer 40,000: Fire Warrior, and Warhammer: Mark of Chaos – Gold Edition. This follows the recent trailer for Warhammer 40,000: Boltgun 2, which is currently in development for PC, PS5, and Xbox Series X/S.
