Company profile

researched Aug 2026

Off The Grid (OTG) is a free-to-play, cyberpunk-themed battle royale video game developed and published by Gunzilla Games, a German-headquartered company. Built on Unreal Engine 5, it is played from a third-person perspective and supports both PvP and PvE matches of up to 60 participants, with Trios and Solos among the currently available modes. The game is set on the fictional Teardrop Island, a location described as having been controlled for years by three MegaCorporations; named in-game areas include Stork City, OCIO, Tryout and Midtown Harbor, with additional locations planned. Signature mechanics include detachable and swappable cyberlimbs (30+ variants, obtainable from crates or taken from defeated opponents) and a large set of customizable weapons modeled using 3D scanning technology, with attachment slots for sight, muzzle, tactical, underbarrel and magazine.

The title carries a narrative layer alongside the battle royale mode: story missions and episodic content (for example "Episode 1: Switcher"), an in-world commentator character named Cobra who hosts "Cobra's Corner," and writing credits for Neill Blomkamp and Richard K. Morgan, with Blomkamp directing the narrative storyline. The game includes an optional NFT marketplace for buying and selling in-game items; the developers state the game is fully playable without engaging with NFTs, and Valve's platform policy prohibits cryptocurrency and NFT use.

Supporting products include the Off The Grid: Companion App, a mobile application operated by POSEIDON 133 PTE. LTD. (a Singapore-incorporated company, registration number 201502546D, registered at 39 Robinson Road #14-01 Robinson Point, Singapore 068911) and published on Google Play under the Gunzilla Games name. The app provides teammate matchmaking, personal and team statistics tracking, voice and group chat, a news feed, friend activity tracking and in-app gifts, with account creation via QR code from the game or an Epic Games sign-in and a paid subscription tier for full functionality.

Business model

Free-to-play game distributed across PC and console storefronts, monetized through optional in-game purchases, an optional NFT marketplace for in-game items, and subscription products including an "OTG Pro Subscription" and a paid subscription within the Companion App. The Companion App subscription is charged through the applicable in-app payment provider and may renew automatically until cancelled.

Optional NFT marketplace transactions for in-game items plus recurring subscription revenue (OTG Pro Subscription; Companion App subscription with auto-renewal), layered on a free-to-play base game.

Traction

Early access launched October 8, 2024 across all platforms and the game is described by the company as fully playable. The Off The Grid: Companion App reports 100,000+ downloads on Google Play with a 4.9 rating from approximately 6,510 reviews as of the listing, last updated May 28, 2026. User reviews raise complaints about cheating, matchmaking balance and queue times.

Latest developments

As of the sources, full release is planned for October 2026, with a public roadmap covering planned features from June to October. The Companion App received an update on May 28, 2026 described as small UI/UX fixes.

β–ΈFull profile β€” market position, technology, go-to-market, geography, history, risks & controversies

Market position

Positions itself as a "next-gen" battle royale differentiated by narrative content and Hollywood creative involvement. Wikipedia classifies it among battle royale, cyberpunk, early access and blockchain games. Press coverage cited in reference sources described the early access launch as a hit while noting the need for players to understand the NFT component.

Distinguishing features relative to other battle royales include PvE story missions and an episodic narrative directed by Neill Blomkamp with writing by Richard K. Morgan, detachable cyberlimb mechanics that let players take opponents' limbs, 3D-scanned modular weapons, an in-world commentator character, and an optional (rather than mandatory) NFT layer.

Technology

The game runs on Unreal Engine 5 and uses 3D scanning technology to produce high-fidelity, customizable weapon models. It incorporates blockchain-based elements in the form of an optional NFT marketplace for in-game items. A separate mobile companion application provides statistics tracking, matchmaking and voice/text communication, integrating with gaming platform and third-party accounts.

Go-to-market

Distribution through major PC and console storefronts and cloud gaming (Steam, Epic, Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation 5, Mac, GeForce Now) under a free-to-play model, launched via early access ahead of full release. Community engagement runs through Discord, Twitter, a support portal, a published code of conduct for players ("Zeros"), a downloadable brand asset kit for press and creators, and a mobile companion app with 100K+ downloads on Google Play. A public roadmap for the 2026 full release is hosted at roadmap2026.gunzillagames.com.

Players of free-to-play battle royale and third-person shooter games on PC (Steam, Epic), Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation 5, Mac and GeForce Now; the Google Play listing is rated Teen and the Companion App terms require users to be 18 or older.

Geography

Gunzilla Games is described as German-headquartered; the entity behind the Companion App, POSEIDON 133 PTE. LTD., is incorporated in Singapore with a registered address in Singapore, and the Companion App terms are governed by Singapore law. Distribution is global via digital storefronts.

History

The game was announced in May 2022 and was initially scheduled for a 2023 release before being delayed. It entered early access on October 8, 2024 on PlayStation 5, Windows and Xbox Series X/S. Company FAQ material references six years of active development and a full release currently planned for October 2026, with a published 2026 roadmap.

Risks & controversies

The game's blockchain component has drawn scrutiny: Valve's policy prohibits cryptocurrency and NFTs, and press coverage framed the NFT element as something players need to understand; the developers emphasize it is optional. The project has also experienced schedule slippage, moving from an initially planned 2023 release to a 2024 early access and an October 2026 full release. Google Play reviews cite cheating, unbalanced matchmaking, long queue times and limited modes, and one review characterizes the platform as unsafe. Community guidelines note unauthorized third-party account sales and impersonation of staff as ongoing risks.
