About the Game

Stunningly rendered for the first time in dazzling full color! Join us now for these treacherous tales of the dauntless Diesel Knights and their fearsome fighting machines!

Diesel Knights a 6-v-6, Mech/Movement Shooter set in a pulp-inspired, dieselpunk world. Players assume the role of the titular "Knights", brave gunwalker pilots of the 407th Special Armored Calvary Regiment, and engage in frenetic multiplayer combat both on foot, using advanced parkour movement mechanics and mid-century inspired weapons and gadgets, or in the cockpits of towering, 65-ton, diesel-powered, mechanical battle suits.

Utilize verticality and momentum to outmaneuver your opponents in all new first or third person multiplayer action or compete for the fastest time in the time trial mode.

Important Note for Mac Players

While the current prototype is playable on Mac, we’ve made the difficult decision to suspend official Mac support for now. We’ll continue limited internal testing and hope to revisit a full Mac port in the future, but due to compatibility and scope constraints, we can’t guarantee official support at this time.

Prototype playtest available now!
