Over the Hill Set for October 14 PC Launch

Developers say the Steam release expands the demo with multiple regions plus added content, signaling strong indie demand ahead of console ports in 2027.

Overview

  • Funselektor and Strelka Games confirmed on Monday, August 10, 2026, that Over the Hill will launch on PC via Steam on October 14, 2026.
  • Console versions for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series, and Nintendo Switch 2 are planned for release in 2027, with no firm dates announced yet.
  • The launch build will include several areas in the Canada and Alergia regions and features such as dynamic weather, day/night cycles, wildlife spotting, and more content than the Steam Next Fest demo offered.
  • Pre-launch interest is unusually high for an indie title, with more than one million Steam wishlists and a widely played demo that helped drive media impressions and player anticipation.
  • The game continues Funselektor’s low‑poly, 'vibey' design and focuses on slow, cooperative off‑road exploration for solo or up to three co‑op players, using vehicle upgrades and equipment like winches and planks to solve terrain challenges.
