Evaluation

Hydrofoil Generation launched into Early Access on February 16, 2023 and graduated to its full 1.0 release on November 7, 2023, bringing with it official SailGP content including the F50 catamarans and liveries. The launch post described the 1.0 release as the completed vision of the game, expressing gratitude for Early Access feedback and framing the release as the culmination of the project. Following the 1.0 launch, the only post-release update was a bug-fix patch (v1.0.1) on November 15, 2023 addressing minor issues. There are no DLC listings on the store, no roadmap or announced future content, and no developer communications of any kind after November 15, 2023. The developer has not established a pattern of post-launch major content updates — only a single bug-fix patch followed by complete silence. With no outstanding content commitments and no update activity since November 15, 2023, the game appears to have launched as a finished product and development concluded at 1.0 release.

About this game

Hydrofoil Generation is the realistic and exciting sailing and foiling simulator from Indie developer Jaxx Vane Studio. A passion project created by Stefano "kunos" Casillo co-founder of Kunos Simulazioni, the globally acclaimed developer behind the racing simulation masterpiece Assetto Corsa.

In Hydrofoil Generation you will sit at the helm of state-of-the-art engineering marvels modeled with unprecedented physical accuracy, sailboats that can "fly" over water to speeds over 50kn.

Take control of the course, the sails trim and, most important , the foils. Keep your boat flying as high as possible to maximize speed but not so high to risk coming down with a splash or worse, as capsizing is just around the corner.



Deal with changing winds, different sea conditions, currents and up to 10 opponents in fierce multiplayer races.
Hydrofoil Generation is a demanding simulator that will push your skills and passion to the limit.



For an even fuller gameplay experience, Hydrofoil Generation now features official Global Racing League SailGP content including SailGP’s flying F50 catamarans and liveries: these high-tech, hydrofoiling F50’s are capable of speeds close to 100 km/h and are now available to race in this super accurate first-person simulation of multiplayer "in-shore" regattas.

The Vessels:

F50
Is a one-design foiling catamaran used in the SailGP race series, capable of speeds close to 100 km/h.

Jx50
A 50ft modern foiling catamaran capable of speeds of up to 50kn.

Jx40
A 40ft modern foiling monohull with automatic systems for ride height control.

You will be able to race these boats in several exciting locations such as Chicago, Den Haag, Hong Kong and Bermuda, with carefully recreated coastlines.
