Originally released in 1988, Wasteland brought the post-apocalypse to video games and inspired a genre. Play one of history’s defining RPGs with completely overhauled graphics, sound, and expanded musical score.

The year is 2087, nearly a century after an all-out nuclear war turned vast swaths of the Earth into a radioactive hellscape. You are a Desert Ranger, a band of stalwart lawmen who are the only hope left in what was once the American southwest, and good people’s last defense against hunger, sickness, ravaging raiders, and mutants.

Now something more secretive and sinister is menacing humanity, and it's your job to investigate. Recruit help and follow leads—the choices you make will shape the world around you. Choose wisely, your life and the lives of those you’re sworn to protect depend on it.

Update

A couple weeks ago an error made Wasteland Remastered free on the Microsoft/Xbox Store, but what people snagged before we fixed the glitch can’t actually be played. So, we’re giving them one that can.

If you were lucky enough to redeem it, you’ll soon see the (non-working) game removed from your library, and you’ll have a new copy to claim waiting for you in your Offers & Credits: https://xbox.com/play/user?openOffersAndCredits=true

Hope you enjoy and see you in the Wasteland.

    Possibly a price error so grab it asap.

      If you try to buy as a gift, it shows as $4.86, so it still has a price value assigned to it, meaning it's not classed as a free item (at least not yet anyway)

      Xbox Cloud Gaming? Requires a Game Pass Ultimate subscription.

      • Lockieasy on 17/04/2026 - 12:26

        Just checked and its playable on the Premium tier as well for cloud gaming.

          Cool, no subs for me and they keep changing it so I haven't kept up.

  • daydream on 17/04/2026 - 22:40

    Expired already?! That wasn't around long.

    For those that got this, it was an error and the game will be removed from your profile/console.

    However…

      Got a message from Xbox today with a link to redeem the new version.

      Odd, but I'll give props that they didn't just revoke it at least.
