Warhammer 40,000: Speed Freeks is gearing up to hit consoles, giving PS5, PS5 Pro, Xbox Series X, and Xbox Series S players a fresh new option for chaotic vehicular combat. After making its name on PC, Caged Element and Wired Productions have confirmed the console release is on the way, opening the doors for more players to jump into its explosive, arena-style battles set in the grimdark Warhammer 40,000 universe.
For fans who’ve been craving a modern combat racing fix, the timing is hard to ignore. It’s been well over a decade since the last major entry in the genre’s most famous car-combat series arrived on PlayStation 3. While that franchise has seen renewed attention in other ways, an official new game hasn’t appeared—so titles like Speed Freeks are stepping in to deliver the high-speed destruction many players have been missing.
Speed Freeks focuses on PvP multiplayer, built around brutal vehicle-on-vehicle mayhem where firepower matters as much as driving skill. If you’d rather practice or play solo, it also includes a single-player option that lets you battle against bots, making it easier to learn the maps, test vehicles, and get comfortable before heading back into competitive matches.
One of the standout additions for console players is the inclusion of a multiplayer level editor alongside an in-game workshop. This setup lets the community create custom maps and upload them to the cloud, so other players can download and play new arenas without waiting for official updates. For anyone who loves user-generated content and constantly rotating multiplayer experiences, this could become one of the game’s biggest long-term draws on PS5 and Xbox Series consoles.
The game comes from the same studio behind Grip: Combat Racing, a pedigree that should interest players who value tight handling mixed with aggressive, weapon-heavy action. On PC, Warhammer 40,000: Speed Freeks has built a strong reputation with very positive player feedback, and it’s currently priced at $19.99 there—though the console price has not been announced yet.
A release date also hasn’t been revealed so far, but console store listings are already live, meaning you can add it to your wishlist now and keep an eye on launch timing. If you’re looking for a new Warhammer 40,000 game with multiplayer intensity, vehicle combat, and creative community-made maps, Speed Freeks is shaping up to be one of the more exciting upcoming arrivals for PS5 and Xbox Series X|S.
