Fans of large-scale strategy combat, get ready—Ninja Kiwi, the award-winning studio behind the wildly popular Bloons franchise, has officially launched the first public playtest for their upcoming multiplayer strategy title, Fightland. Available now on Steam for Windows, this playtest offers gamers a chance to experience the game before its official Early Access launch.
If you’re a fan of tactical PVP, hero-based shooters, or massive multiplayer brawls with a strategic edge, Fightland could be your next obsession.
What Is Fightland?
Fightland is a fresh take on the massive multiplayer tactical strategy genre, where up to 100 players engage in large-scale team battles. Divided into four squads of 25, players must collaborate to conquer objectives, defend zones, and raid enemy teams—all while customizing their characters with unique weapons, abilities, and gear.
Set in a mysterious universe shaped by cosmic forces, Fightland throws warriors from across space and time into a beautifully stylized battlefield, where team coordination and smart decisions trump brute force.
Key Features:
- 4 Teams of 25 Players – Massive squad-based competition
- 3 Hero Classes – Each offering distinct playstyles
- Customizable Loadouts – Weapons, gear, outfits, and more
- Dynamic Objectives – Conquer, defend, and outmaneuver your opponents
- Battle Assets – Game-changing pickups that can shift the tide mid-fight
- 3 Game Modes – Offering varied gameplay experiences across each session

Gameplay Breakdown: Squad-Based Strategy Meets Action-Packed Chaos
Unlike traditional hero shooters or MOBAs, Fightland places a strong emphasis on tactical squad play. Every decision—from your weapon loadout to the path your squad takes—can mean the difference between victory and defeat.
You’ll choose from:
- Three Distinct Hero Classes: Each designed for specific roles in team-based combat
- Primary & Secondary Weapons: Ranging from long-range rifles to close-combat brawlers
- Battle Assets: Randomized, powerful modifiers that shake up each match
- Outfits: Not just for looks—each outfit comes with gameplay bonuses and style options
Every match plays out differently, driven by player tactics, team synergy, and battlefield control.
What’s Coming in Early Access?
While the playtest delivers a polished glimpse at Fightland’s core mechanics, the upcoming Early Access launch will expand upon this foundation with:
- New hero classes
- Additional game modes
- Expanded customization options
- Advanced team-based mechanics
- Ongoing community-driven updates
With an Early Access release just around the corner, now is the perfect time to dive in and become one of the game’s earliest champions.
