SAND: Raiders of Sophie Set for June 10 PC Debut

Publisher tinyBuild alongside developers Hologryph and TowerHaus announced that the extraction shooter SAND: Raiders of Sophie is scheduled to launch for PC via Steam on June 10, 2026.

Ahead of this release, an open server slam playtest is currently available to the public and will remain active through the weekend ending June 7, 2026..

While the initial launch is exclusive to PC, versions for the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series consoles are confirmed to follow at a later date.

The game is set in an alternate-history, dieselpunk environment on the planet Sophie, a world devastated by an ecological disaster that evaporated its oceans.

Players navigate these vast desert wastelands using customizable, titanic mechanical walking vehicles known as Tramplers.

This title aims to provide an accessible entry point for fans of extraction shooters and survival games by featuring a persistent progression system that prevents offline raids.

The current server slam playtest introduces new PvE Trampler enemies, expanded weaponry, and additional points of interest for players to explore.

A new Storm Dive Mode is also being tested, featuring a shrinking safe zone that culminates in a final confrontation over a massive shipwreck.

Participants in the playtest can experience Voyage Mode for lower-tier scavenging or increase the stakes in Storm Dive Mode for greater rewards.

The announcement on June 5, 2026, coincided with the release of a new trailer showcasing the modular Trampler editor and multiplayer action.
