The off-road exploration title 'over the hill' launches on PC via Steam this week, offering a fresh driving experience for fans of the genre. Players can immediately access the game on October 14, with console versions for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series, and Switch 2 arriving in 2027. This staggered release allows PC gamers to start exploring the wilderness right away while console players wait for the later ports.
Funselektor's off-road exploration game arrives on Steam this week
Developed by Funselektor and Strelka Games, the title carries the pedigree of the studio behind 'art of rally'. The game focuses on solo and co-op gameplay that supports up to four players navigating diverse environments. Players can customize their vehicles and explore biomes based on real-world locations, providing a grounded yet adventurous driving simulation.
Funselektor describes the experience as a chance to explore, navigate, and uncover a vast wilderness. The developers encourage players to pick a ride inspired by classic four-by-four overlanders from the 1960s and 1980s. This design choice emphasizes a rambling, exploratory pace rather than high-speed racing, aligning with the off-road exploration genre.
We looked at NBA 2K27 Announced for PS5, Xbox earlier while tracking Funselektor launches. The upcoming console releases are scheduled for 2027, though the source only specifies the year rather than a specific month or day. This timeline gives the developers time to port the game to the newer generation of hardware.
The PC version is available now on Steam, providing immediate access to the customization and exploration features. Console players will need to wait until 2027 for their respective platforms. The game stands as a distinct entry in the off-road driving space, backed by the team's previous success in rally simulation.
