Star Overdrive, the hoverboarding open-world title for the Nintendo Switch, is set to launch on PC, PS5, and Xbox on June 19, 2025. This expanded release will allow even more players to experience its captivating, technologically wild atmosphere and unique gameplay. The exciting part is that developer Caracal is not merely porting the game; they are completely overhauling it. With input from the community taken into account, the new version will include all major patches and bug fixes that have been addressed since the original release.
Assume the role of Bios, who is stranded on the planet Cebete, armed only with your Keytar weapon and trusty hoverboard. Experience the thrill of gameplay reminiscent of the best Tony Hawk games while being immersed in an atmosphere similar to that of Tears of the Kingdom. Explore four unique biomes and engage in epic boss fights that enhance the exciting and unique combat.
The pre-orders are live right now and there are two editions to choose from:
- Standard ($34.99)
- Deluxe ($39.99) – Additional hoverboard cosmetics, 50 dyes, a digital manga written by the dev team, and the game’s soundtrack.
For an additional five bucks, the Deluxe edition seems like the best choice considering everything you get with it. This is awesome considering the journey developer Caracal has taken since the development of earlier titles like Downward and OkunoKA. The success gathered by Star Overdrive is incredibly well-deserved. Seeing it expand to even more platforms is exciting to see. I’d love to see where this success takes the developer when they announce their next title.
