About the Game

Iron Courier is a first-person co-op survival horror game about manning an armored tank across a dead, haunted wasteland. You take delivery contracts, drive out to buried bunkers, retrieve the cargo on foot, and haul it home for credits and reputation. Predators are out there the whole time, following at a distance, waiting for you to slip.

HOME IS WHERE THE TANK IS

Your tank isn't a menu. It's a room you walk around in, and you drive it by throwing the levers inside: accelerate, reverse, steer. In co-op that splits the crew. One of you drives while the other watches the dark, patches the hull, and keeps an eye on the fuel and battery before either runs out. Lose the tank and you've usually lost the run.

YOU DON'T FIGHT — YOU SURVIVE

There are no guns. The things in the wasteland can't be killed, only avoided, and each one avoids differently. Some track sound. Some track sight. Some you just do not want to wake up. Your tools are your headlights, your speed, and how quiet you're willing to be.

RUNS THAT MATTER

Death is permanent. Lose a run and the credits and cargo go with it — only your experience and faction standing carry over. Complete contracts to raise your reputation with each faction and unlock perks that make the next run out a little less brutal.

-

Three factions, procedurally generated bunkers, rolling storms, and a classic hand-built PSX-era look.

Play solo or bring one other courier. Keep the tank alive, deliver the cargo, and don't stop moving.
