Teardown Steam Guide: Multiplayer, Mods, and PC Specs

What Do You Get With Teardown on Steam?

A locked door is an invitation to make your own entrance. Teardown Steam gives you a 40-mission campaign, a destruction sandbox, Steam Workshop integration, and online multiplayer for up to 12 players. That combination gives you structured heists to solve and room to keep experimenting with new maps, vehicles, and tools.

Developed by Tuxedo Labs, Teardown builds its environments from destructible voxels. Walls, floors, vehicles, and loose objects become part of your solution: knock through a building, construct a ramp, or reposition a truck to connect objectives.

The PC version includes these Steam features:

Feature	Details

You can switch between first-person and third-person views, too. The Character Update added selectable characters, custom character mod support, and third-person support for tools, vehicles, and official post-launch content.

How the Campaign Turns Destruction Into a Puzzle

You run a demolition business struggling to pay its bills. Accepting a questionable contract pulls you into corporate sabotage, police investigations, theft, and increasingly elaborate jobs. Emails move the story forward between missions, while your warehouse gradually improves as the business becomes more successful.

Many heists have two distinct stages. You get unlimited preparation time to explore and reshape the map. Triggering the security alarm then starts a 60-second escape window in the familiar timed missions.

That structure makes preparation matter. Smashing a doorway saves seconds; destroying the floor beneath your getaway vehicle creates another problem.

Before starting a timed run:

1. Inspect every required target. Check its elevation, access points, and alarm connections.
2. Choose an objective order. Account for the trip back to the getaway vehicle.
3. Open direct routes. Cut through walls or floors where existing hallways take you away from your destination.
4. Build missing connections. Use planks for ramps and crossings once you unlock them.
5. Position vehicles deliberately. Leave each one facing the next stretch of your route.
6. Quick-save your preparation. Use the saved setup to refine a failed attempt.

Read each mission’s security conditions before demolition. Wired alarms, fire alarms, and moisture-sensitive objectives require different handling.

Tools, Valuables, and Optional Objectives

Your starting equipment includes a sledgehammer, fire extinguisher, and spraycan. Campaign progression expands that selection with tools such as the blowtorch, shotgun, explosives, and rocket launcher.

Optional objectives increase your score and help you reach tool unlocks sooner. Hidden valuables provide cash for equipment upgrades, including additional ammunition and improvements to planks.

Search buildings during preparation, while there is time to explore. Mark your planned route with the spraycan, and keep the fire extinguisher accessible on jobs where spreading flames can trigger an alarm.

The campaign also includes transportation, demolition, robot encounters, and other mission types. Some jobs revolve around moving a heavy object intact, so inspect the available cranes, trucks, and boats before trying to drag it across the map.

Does Teardown Have Multiplayer?

Yes. The released multiplayer update supports online sessions with up to 12 players, including the full base campaign, Sandbox, and compatible community mods. You can create a private session with friends or join a public lobby.

Competitive modes include:

• Treasure Thieves
• Deathmatch
• Team Deathmatch
• Capture the Flag

The update also added Splitfield Estate and Cratertown.

For campaign co-op, assign targets and escape routes before anyone touches a wired objective. Agree on a countdown, and give each player a clear responsibility. Extra hands help with simultaneous objectives, but everyone still needs a route through the altered environment.

Choose multiplayer-compatible mods when assembling a session. Compatibility matters when combining custom maps, tools, vehicles, and game modes.

Teardown Rally Is Still in Development

The September 30, 2026 announcement introduced Teardown Rally as a free multiplayer update in development. Its announced features include quick races, tournaments, cups, and 18 vehicles: 12 rally cars and six monster trucks.

Keep that upcoming mode separate from the multiplayer content already available. Folkrace is also a separate paid DLC with its own racing content.

Steam Workshop, Sandbox, and Creative Mode

The PC version includes Steam Workshop integration. Teardown supports thousands of community creations, including custom environments, tools, vehicles, and alternate game modes.

The built-in editor and Lua scripting also let you create your own mods. Example projects provide starting points for learning how the systems work.

Choose content around the activity you want to try:

• Custom maps provide new places to explore and demolish.
• Tools and weapons introduce different ways to manipulate the environment.
• Vehicle packs expand driving and destruction experiments.
• Game modes add objectives and rules beyond the campaign.

Check a mod’s requirements and multiplayer support before building a session around it. Add a few creations at a time so you can learn their controls and effects.

Sandbox removes campaign objectives and gives you unlimited resources for experimentation. Creative mode lets you construct objects by placing voxels.

The Art Vandals mini campaign is free and includes five heist missions in Tilläggaryd, along with tools such as the Paperboy Gun and Jackhammer.

PC System Requirements

Teardown’s blocky appearance still comes with substantial graphics and physics work. Compare your hardware with these requirements before buying:

Component	Minimum	Recommended
Operating system	Windows 10, 64-bit	Windows 10, 64-bit
Processor	Quad Core CPU	Intel Core i7 or better
Memory	8 GB RAM	8 GB RAM
Graphics	NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1060 or similar; 4 GB VRAM	NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1080 or similar; 4 GB VRAM
Storage	12 GB available space	12 GB available space

Integrated graphics cards are not supported. The native PC release supports Windows; there are no native macOS or Linux versions.

Start with a base-game map when evaluating how your computer handles the game, then increase the scale of your experiments.

DLSS and FSR Graphics Options

The November 3, 2026 update added NVIDIA DLSS and AMD FSR support. You can find the controls under Options → Graphics → Upscaling.

Upscaling renders the game at a lower internal resolution and reconstructs the image at your selected output resolution. It provides another way to balance image quality against frame rate.

Try the available options on your hardware and compare clarity with smoothness. Performance gains depend on your computer and settings, so evaluate the result while moving through a level and during destruction.

Controller support also makes the PC version accessible from a gamepad. Use the in-game control prompts when switching between tools, vehicles, and modded equipment, since custom creations can introduce their own controls.

Buying the Base Game and Choosing DLC

The base game includes the campaign, Sandbox, Workshop support, and released multiplayer features. Start with the Teardown Steam purchase page to compare the current regional price and bundle contents.

Choose expansions by the kind of additional gameplay you want:

• Time Campers: A Wild West setting with new destructive escapades.
• Folkrace: Racing modes, tracks, destructive challenges, unlockable vehicles, and skins.
• The Greenwash Gambit: A space campaign with 14 missions across four maps, specialized tools, and zero-gravity mechanics.
• Relics of Barkuna: Exploration of ancient ruins, puzzle solving, and relic collecting on the trail of the Great Gem.

The Greenwash Gambit gained multiplayer support on August 18, 2026. Its full campaign supports up to 12 players, with two to four recommended for the campaign experience. Everyone joining a session needs to own that DLC.

Relics of Barkuna is a single-player game.
