What is Teardown? Destruction, Crafting, Trailer, & more!

Going on destructive rampages in sandbox games is one of my favorite means of digital catharsis. However, most games don't feature completely destructible environments where every object within view can be razed to the ground—Teardown is not one of them. In this voxel-based game, you can destroy every object within sight down to its last pixel. Here's everything we know about Teardown.

Everything we know about Teardown

Teardown is a single-player sandbox game that uses a graphics engine based on voxel technology, similar to Minecraft. It features game mode options like a campaign with destructive heists, challenge modes, various mods and custom maps, and a sandbox mode.

Campaign

The campaign in Teardown puts the player in the shoes of the owner of Löckelle Teardown Services. Players must pull off dubious tasks and requests for characters they meet, most of which include destroying or stealing specific targets by using a plethora of tools and machines and then making a getaway from authorities.

Crafting and Destruction

Besides the campaign, Teardown features a sandbox mode where players can use unlocked tools to demolish environments to their heart's content with unlimited resources and vehicles. Certain items can be combined to craft deadly inventions. Furthermore, players can also play around with the in-game level editor to create new levels from their imagination.

Modding

Teardown features extensive mod support and a huge modding community. Players can use the in-built level editor to create levels or simply jump into one of the thousands of community-created mods.
