Synthesized from 2 Yomimono stories · updated Jun 17

Funselektor Labs, the studio behind the competitive rally racing game 'art of rally', is working on a new project called 'over the hill'. The game is a cooperative off-road exploration adventure, a clear shift from the studio's previous focus on high-speed rally racing. A demo for 'over the hill' was released on June 12, 2026, and is available during Steam Next Fest, running until June 22. The demo features the Emerald Lake area and supports up to 4-player online co-op, with three unlockable vehicles.

The full version of 'over the hill' is planned for release later in 2026. It will launch on PC, PS5, Xbox Series X|S, and Nintendo Switch 2. The demo offers a low-stakes experience where players drive old-fashioned trucks through natural parks and mountain roads, with cooperative features like winching stuck vehicles out of mud. This marks a notable departure from the competitive, time-trial nature of 'art of rally'.
