Sandbox (stylised as S&box) is a sandbox game currently in development by Facepunch Studios using Valve's Source 2 engine. The game is intended to be a Garry's Mod sequel, a previous game released by Garry Newman. It is due for release in 2021.

Development
Development started in 2017 with Unreal Engine 4.

After a restructuring at Facepunch in 2018, development for Sandbox halted so that they could focus on Rust and Garry's Mod. On the April 27, 2020, Sandbox was picked up again by Garry Newman, moving into "heavy development" by the second half of 2020.

On October 27, 2020, Sandbox switched to Source 2 upon gaining access to it from Valve. Sandbox would be the first 3rd party game with access to the full toolkit of Source 2.
