Announced tonight at The Game Awards, Highguard is a new free to play ‘raid’ shooter from some of the developers behind Apex Legends and Titanfall. Check out the trailer below!
Per the developers, “From the creators of Apex Legends and Titanfall, comes Highguard: a PvP raid shooter where players will ride, fight, and raid as Wardens, arcane gunslingers sent to battle for control of a mythical continent. There they’ll clash against rival Warden crews for possession of the Shieldbreaker, then break into and destroy the enemy base to secure territory in this all-new breed of shooter.”
The really good news is, you don’t have long to wait before you get to play. It’s releasing as a Free-to-play game – Highguard launches on Steam, Xbox Series X|S, and PlayStation5 January 26, 2026.
