Car Wars (Sixth Edition) is a futuristic vehicle game for 2–4 players, with an approximate play time of 180 minutes. Set on arenas and freeways of the future, it puts the right of way in the hands of those with the biggest guns.
Before heading onto the road, players build their vehicle from the ground up. Each machine can be equipped with essential elements and upgrades that shape its presence on the course.
- Weapons for bringing serious firepower
- Armor for outfitting the vehicle
- Suspension as part of the vehicle build

Once their vehicles are ready, players take them into an arena or out onto the freeway. The setting delivers a distinctive vision of the future, where driving and heavy weaponry come together in a high-stakes contest for the right of way.
Sixth Edition is a streamlined update of the classic Car Wars. Its focus is on making the experience quicker to build, quicker to learn, and quicker to get started, while preserving the central appeal of creating a vehicle and taking it onto the road.
For players looking for a substantial tabletop experience built around futuristic vehicles, customizable equipment, arenas, and freeways, Car Wars (Sixth Edition) offers a direct route from vehicle design to the action. Gather 2–4 players, prepare the machines, and choose whether the next destination is the arena or the open road.
