Hard West is a story-driven game set in a supernatural version of the Wild West. After a tragic turn of events, Warren pursues revenge, hunting down those who wronged him as he descends into the darkest parts of the human soul. Demons, arcane rituals, satanic cults and the walking dead shape a world where black pacts with forces beyond human understanding haunt everyone around them.

Story and choices

You play through 8 story-based scenarios and meet a colorful cast of playable characters whose fates are closely tied to yours. Choices made during and between combat missions affect future events and the characters’ ultimate fates. The narrative has multiple endings, and your decisions help uncover the plans of the ancient powers at work.

Turn-based combat

The game includes 40 individually designed turn-based combat missions, set on original tactical maps with distinct story-based objectives. You control a squad of 1–4 members and use Western-inspired abilities, from gunslinging feats to ways of surviving against the odds. Luck also plays a role in combat, alongside probability.

You can use objects in the environment to create cover, then flank and maneuver around opponents. The Western sun and the sounds enemies make can reveal foes who are out of sight: watch the shadows they cast. Metal objects can also let skilled gunslingers ricochet shots beyond the line of sight.

Abilities and weapons

You earn unique ability cards by completing main and optional objectives, exploring, bartering and hunting for treasure. Equip and combine cards to gain new abilities, create stronger combinations and expand your options in combat. The game also features 40 historically inspired weapons, including shotguns, rifles, pistols and sniper rifles based on real prototypes, designs and ideas from the era.
