Crossout is a post-apocalyptic vehicle combat MMO where you build your own war machine from scavenged parts and battle in PvP arenas.
Vehicle building: Use the garage to construct your vehicle. Frame pieces provide structure. Cabin determines your vehicle’s energy and stats. Weapons consume energy — more powerful weapons need more energy. Wheels, armour, and modules fill the rest. Keep your cabin protected — if it is destroyed, you die.
Best early weapons: MGs (machine guns) are beginner-friendly — good range, easy to aim, consistent damage. Shotguns for close-range burst. Cannons for heavy single-shot damage at higher levels.
Faction choice: Each faction unlocks specific parts. Engineers (starter) → Lunatics (fast, light) → Nomads (balanced, versatile) → Scavengers (heavy, durable). Level all factions eventually.
Note: Verified as of July 2026. Check official patch notes for updates.
Faction Progression — What to Level First
Each faction unlocks unique parts. Level them in this order for optimal progression:
| Order | Faction | Level Target | Key Unlocks |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Engineers | 10 | Basic structural parts, starter weapons |
| 2 | Lunatics | 7 | Light frames, shotguns, fast wheels |
| 3 | Nomads | 7 | Medium frames, balanced weapons |
| 4 | Scavengers | 10 | Heavy frames, cannons, truck parts |
| 5 | Steppenwolfs | 7 | Military-grade armour, heavy tracks |
| 6 | Dawn’s Children | 7 | Energy weapons, hovers |
| 7 | Firestarters | 7 | Fire weapons, melee parts |
Do not split levels evenly. Push Engineers to level 10 first for basic structural parts, then Lunatics for speed, then Scavengers for durability. Specialise based on your preferred playstyle (fast/light = Lunatics, heavy/tank = Scavengers).
Parts List Economics
Crafting parts requires resources from missions and raids. Sell unwanted parts on the player market:
- Blue/Purple weapons — 10-50 coins each
- Epic cabins — 100-500 coins
- Limited-edition parts (event rewards) — hold for 3-6 months, then sell for 2-5x value
