Coming Soon To Early Access

The developers of this game intend to release as a work in progress, developing with the feedback of players.

Note: Games in Early Access are not complete and may or may not change further. If you are not excited to play this game in its current state, then you should wait to see if the game progresses further in development. Learn more

What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“Our goal is for Pizza Bandit to reach its full potential, and community feedback has been instrumental in shaping the game's development. By launching early access, we aim to involve players as early as possible, ensuring that their insights and suggestions guide the game in the right direction.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“We plan to keep the game in Early Access until it meets our key milestones: featuring at least seven unique mission types, a robust array of weapons and equipment, and an engaging 4-player co-op experience that encourages replayability. Our current estimate for this phase is 6 to 12 months. However, as a small team of six, we acknowledge that achieving these goals might take slightly longer.”

How is the full version planned to differ from the Early Access version?

“At Full release, along with additional weapons, gadgets, and achievements, we'll be adding mission variations to increase replayability, higher-tier difficulty warp stations, more monster varieties, and competitive leaderboards to track and showcase their achievements.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“The Early Access version will include a wide range of character customization, eight missions(7 distinct types) plus a tutorial mission, 11 weapons, seven gadget varieties, a weapon modification system, and full restaurant customization. We've also added a restaurant prestige system and a cookable pizza oven that will give you and your team additional buffs. A decent amount of achievements will also be available.”

Will the game be priced differently during and after Early Access?

“The game's price will gradually rise as we introduce more content throughout the Early Access period. Purchasing early gives you a front-row seat to its development and offers the advantage of a lower price.”

How are you planning on involving the Community in your development process?

“We value every piece of feedback from our players on Steam, Discord, and other platforms. Your thoughts on existing elements of Pizza Bandit, like weapons, enemies, level design, music, and sound, are crucial. We're equally interested in your ideas for the game's future. The community's input has already significantly shaped Pizza Bandit, and we're excited to continue this collaborative journey.”

Reviews

“Pizza Bandit is always ludicrous, and its inspirations are obvious, but it’s never less than fun.”
IGN

“There is not a moment in the game that is not just pure bliss and enjoyment.”
YardBarker

“Pizza Bandit is a silly concept that’s been executed at a delightfully high level, and I can’t wait to put on my dirty chef’s hat again!”
The Gamer

About This Game

Pizza Bandit is what happens when a third-person shooter crashes headfirst into a cooking show — bullets, bounties, and burnt crusts flying everywhere. In this mission-based, 4-player co-op adventure, you play as an ex-mercenary chasing an oddly specific dream: opening the galaxy’s greatest pizza joint.

Armed with time-travel tech and a questionable business plan, you’ll dive into chaotic eras, take down dangerous targets, and cook under pressure—literally. From flipping dough in a warzone to seasoning your kills with style, every mission is a high-stakes recipe for disaster… and maybe, just maybe, your dream pizzeria.

🍳 Cook or Be Cooked

Get ready to take on diverse missions that test both your trigger finger and your culinary skills. You’ll have to dodge relentless enemy attacks while cooking under pressure—chopping, assembling, and plating meals mid-battle. It’s not just about firepower, but about precision, multitasking, and keeping your cool when the kitchen turns into a warzone.

🔥 Speed, Spice, and Spray 'n Pray

Fast-paced battles demand quick reflexes and even quicker thinking—as you dive, roll, and shoot your way through chaos like a caffeinated stunt double. Enemies aren’t just fast—they're unreasonably angry, absurdly persistent, and definitely not fans of your cooking.

🔫 Lock. Load. Let It Simmer.

Every mission starts in the loadout screen—so choose wisely. Your skills matter just as much as your guns, especially when you’re juggling bounties and baking. Scavenge ingredients and weapon parts mid-mission to upgrade your arsenal. Score big with bounty contracts to unlock deadlier tools and spicier skills.

🍽️ Your Restaurant, Your Vibe

Between bounty runs, you’ll funnel your hard-earned credits into the dream: a pizzeria worth fighting (and frying) for. Buy furniture, kitchen appliances, neon lights, and wall decor to customize your future five-star hotspot. Just don’t ask where the funding came from.

🕶️ Style Is Half the Battle

Dress like the unhinged culinary assassin you are. Mix and match outfits, highlight colors, glowing accessories, hairstyles, and skin tones.

Whether you’re channeling streetwear chef or intergalactic food warlord, the drip is yours to command. (Facial and body morphing not included)

🤝 1–4 Player Co-op (a.k.a. Chaotic Goodness)

Roll solo or roll deep in 2–4 player co-op. Mission difficulty scales to your squad size, but don’t get too cozy—friendly fire is always on, and miscommunication is half the fun. With quick-join enabled, you’ll be yelling “Who burned the crust?!” with strangers in no time.
