Hello everyone,

Today’s update to Teardown is focused on modders.

We have been working with modders in our community on ways to broaden and improve the modding experience.

The workflow for creating a mod and the mod editor itself are now accessible straight from the main menu. We’ve also added a bunch of new APIs that give modders more tools to play with, as well as fixed some bugs and updated the UI.

We hope that these improvements spawn a new wave of cool mods, and that all of the modders out there like the revised mod creation workflow.

Big thanks to Autumn, apollo, CaptainBear, Agenttomate, stachu, Shawn and all the modders who have given us feedback on the modding process and helped shape this update.

If you want to stay up-to-date on more upcoming features that are currently in development, follow us here.

Enjoy!

Hi everyone.

We just released the last update for the year. We have added the Löckelle Motor Park as a built in mod. The motor park was previously released as an early-access pre-order bonus for Xbox players but is now available to everyone for free. It consists of a challenging obstacle course and two formidable monster trucks to take to the track. The two monster trucks are spawnable in any part of the game.

We have also been hard at work with bug fixes and minor improvements. This update includes fixes to issues like loading times in OpenGL and problems with alt-tab functionality in fullscreen with DX12. We have also included improvements for modders that open up new functionality to the modding API. We hope even more awesome mods are created as a result.

We will continue to make improvements and polish the game, as well as add more big features to the game next year.

Happy holidays everyone!

Version 1.5 is out today. With it comes DirectX 12, massive performance improvements and language support for German, Spanish, Italian, French, Japanese, Russian, Polish and Simplified Chinese. We’re also launching our Season Pass and the first premium DLC, Time Campers, which we hope you have the chance to play.

And finally, we had the opportunity to work with a special guest on our console release trailer, which also dropped today. If you’re interested, check it out:

We have tons of features that we are still looking to add to Teardown in the future, and we can't wait to be able to show them to you!

Join us for a first look at Time Campers!

Hello everyone,

Saddle up and prepare for a wild ride back to a time when explosives were made from dynamite and sledgehammers were... still sledgehammers. Let your destructive imagination run rampant as you execute daring escapades across a fully destructible wild west in the upcoming DLC – Time Campers!

Time Campers is the first of four premium DLCs launching with our new Season Pass, available November 15, 2023. The Season Pass will normally be available for $29.99 (or your regional equivalent), but will launch at a 33% discount until November 22. If you don’t want to commit to the entire Season Pass, Time Campers will also available for purchase individually for $7.99.

We hope you enjoy our reimagining of the wild west when Time Campers launches on November 15th!

Hello everyone,

It’s time we talk more about the future of Teardown.

First things first: we want Teardown to be more accessible to people around the world. Not only is our upcoming console launch on November 15th going to help with that, but on that same day we will be releasing an update that contains localization for French, Italian, German, Spanish, Japanese, Polish, Russian and Simplified Chinese. We have also been doing a ton of optimization work and are adding support for DirectX 12, which will make the game run smoother on a wider set of hardware. You’ll probably see this update hit our experimental branch sometime in October.

When it comes to more content, while our community makes a ton of awesome content through modding (more than we could have ever hoped for), sometimes we’ve got our own ideas about cool stuff that could be added. To that end, part of our team has been working on expanding official game content that we plan on releasing as DLC packs. Our goal is to release four of them by the end of 2024, the first two of which we can share some information on today:

First up will be Time Campers, a campaign expansion set in the Wild West. You’ll travel back in time and experience a collection of missions in a similar format to the current Teardown campaign, but with old-timey tools and architecture. Much of this new content will also be available in Sandbox Mode. Time Campers will be available on November 15th as part of a Season Pass which will grant access to all four upcoming DLCs, or as a stand-alone purchase.

Then, in the first half of 2024, we’ll be releasing Folkrace. This DLC also expands the campaign in Teardown, but rather than following our current campaign format, instead introduces a ton of new vehicles and a series of destructive racing game modes. You’ll be challenged against AI drivers and expand your car collection as you win. It will feel like a brand new game in Teardown's voxel world.

If this new type of content isn’t for you, don’t worry. Our community continues to make amazing mod content while the rest of our team remains hard at work trying to expand the functionality, systems, and ways that we hope you are able to play Teardown in the future.

Hello everyone,

Effortlessly build new objects of all shapes and sizes with various materials, including wood, brick, metal, and more. From there, you can easily save, spawn, move, and duplicate the fruits of your labor!

Creative mode is a new mode where you can not only tear stuff down but actually build up new stuff.

I hope you will like it!

Hello everyone,

After the Steam Spring Sale, the base price of Teardown will increase from $19.99 to $29.99. Now is your last chance to buy Teardown at a discounted price (currently also 20% off) before the change goes into effect on March 23.

We can’t thank the more than one million players who have already joined the Teardown community enough. The game has grown a lot since we entered Early Access in 2020 and we can’t wait to show you what we have in the works as we continue to expand it more.

Hey everyone,

We are honored to have been nominated for Most Innovative Gameplay in the Steam Awards. While we are up against some fantastic games, we'd like to ask you to consider voting for Teardown.

Whether we win or not, we are proud to have such a great community (with so many amazing mods) built around this simulated and fully destructible voxel game. Thank you for all of the support!
