Developed by KODgames, who previously released Bounty:Drag Racing in May 2024, Bounty Off Road launches on Steam Early Access with a 10% discount until April 24th 2025.
Apparently inspired by offroading games from the early 2000s, you’re able to take part in trail, rally, race and hill climb events with multiplayer lobbies of up to 16 players, along with complete trails to earn money and exploring three large maps.
You can choose to drive a wide variety of vehicles, including ATV’s, UTVs, SUVs, Pickup Trucks, Crawlers, Diesels, and Electrics, with the ability to customise them, tune the tyres and suspension, and with persistent fuel simulation across gaming sessions, along with engine temps to watch when you’re tackling rough terrain.
The aim is for Bounty Off Road to be in Early Access for around a year, with the full version getting more maps, events, vehicles, and a higher purchase price. It’s currently in a Beta release playbale online in co-op. Recent updates have changes the difficulty of the gameplay, fixed an issue with force feedback settings not being saved, and some revisions to courses, along with a variety of other fixes.
It seems that off-roading has become a bit of a trend for games in 2025, with Bounty Off Road joining the upcoming Roadcraft due out in May, and Over The Hill coming from Funselektor and Strelka Games. It’ll be interesting to see if solo developer KODGames can carve out a trail to differentiate it. Certainly the idea of 16 players all co-existing for convoys and impromptu get-togethers could be interesting, along with the potential to randomly bump into people at a petrol station, garage, or out in the wild.
Bounty Off Road is available for the PC via Steam Early Access, and you can keep up with updates, DLC and more, here.
