Copenhagen, Denmark – April 17th, 2025 - Neighbors: Suburban Warfare, the slap-happy PvP multiplayer game from developer Invisible Walls and publisher Amplifier Studios, is available now on PC via Steam Early Access for $9.99 / £8.99 / €9.99.
Developed by Invisible Walls, the team behind the cult classic First Class Trouble, Neighbors: Suburban Warfare delivers an all-new chaotic multiplayer experience to players. Set in the less-than-peaceful town of Heartsville, two teams of up to four players bring their neighborhood quarrels to the streets in an effort to destroy their neighbors’ home, all whilst defending their own.
Engage in Slaphappy, Entertaining Combat
After two Open Beta tests that have attracted more than quarter a million unique players across the globe, the streets of Heartsville inspired by the late American 50s are now open for all to enjoy and ruin in equal measure. Here’s some of the key gameplay features of Neighbors: Suburban Warfare:
- Pick Your Poison – Choose one of eight playable Neighbors, each with unique abilities and play styles, ranging from the lovable granny Doreen and her trusty boxing gloves to the veteran med kit wielding Gramps or Louie the explosions specialist. There’s something for everyone!
- Adapt, Improvise, Overcome - Grab everyday household items and slap the opposing team into next week. From frying pans and rolling pins to tennis ball turrets or weaponised bird poop, every tool becomes lethal. John Wick? Never heard of him.
- Keep the Change, ya Filthy Animal – From upgrading to an electric fence to laying down bear traps, anything goes in Neighbors: Suburban Warfare. As the opposing team seeks to destroy the other team’s essentials, a multitude of tools and gadgets are available to hamper their progress. Oh look, a lovely cheese pizza just for me!
- Dress to Transgress – Demolishing the neighbors’ house is messy work, but who says one can’t look good doing it? Neighbors: Suburban Warfare features a range of neighbor outfits, weapon skins and house blueprints that are available for players to purchase or acquire as they display their fashion flair while they destroy the bedroom feng shui.
Early Access & Beyond
“All right, we’re live! Wait, is this thing on? In all seriousness, we’ve been waiting for this moment for quite a while.” says David Jean Heldager, CEO at Invisible Walls. “Over the past three years, the Invisible Walls team have worked hard to create a unique multiplayer experience that we aim to support for years to come. We can’t wait to see what players think of our game as it enters Early Access and beyond!”
Neighbors: Suburban Warfare will continue to evolve through Early Access with new playable neighbors, wacky new weapons, and action-packed maps for players to enjoy. Invisible Walls is set to keep its community at the forefront of development as they listen closely to their players’ feedback.
