Exo Rally Championship launches on Steam with procedural alien worlds and rally-style career mode

Exo Rally Championship first showed up at the 2023 PC Gaming Show, and after a couple of years it's finally out — the extraterrestrial rally sim launched on Steam today.

The developers describe it as a brutally realistic racing simulation, with customizable rovers built around realistic tire models, drivetrains, suspension, and damage systems. Low-gravity environments add thrusters into the mix for extra maneuverability. There's a career mode modeled on real-world rally, Baja, and Dakar events. No head-to-head online racing, but you can chase asynchronous leaderboard times across procedurally generated alien landscapes — and share seeds with friends so they can race the exact same terrain against your ghost.

If you ever enjoyed driving the Mako across barren planets in Mass Effect — and plenty of people did, despite the complaints — Exo Rally Championship scratches a similar itch, just faster and with brutal-looking space weather thrown in. It's available now on Steam.
