Quite a Ride, a Survival-Horror Game Set on a Bike, Announced for PC

Developer Goodwin Games has announced a new survival horror game for PC called Quite a Ride. Built with Unreal Engine 5, you must keep pedaling on your bike in order to keep the fog around you – and the horrors within it – from consuming you. It doesn’t have a release date as of yet.

As Goodwin describes it, “You travel by bicycle through a foggy rural landscape filled with eerie secrets and monsters lurking in the dense mist. The game’s atmosphere and themes draw inspiration from Stephen King’s works and iconic horror films of the ’80s and ’90s.” Check out the announcement trailer above and the first screenshots in the gallery below.

Your phone’s battery drains over time and must be recharged by continuing to pedal your bike. And that phone will keep sending you strange messages that might help or hurt you. Meanwhile, as you go, you’ll encounter oddities like deserted towns and bizarre laboratories. The road is always changing, but Goodwin says there’s a unique pseudo-multiplayer twist: “Players’ collective global efforts can change the environment, unlocking new locations, hidden characters and secret quests over time.”

You can wishlist Quite a Ride on Steam if you’re interested.
