OHV

OHV is a solo-developed Early Access open-world game set in 1990s Poland. The developer, Przemysław Hadała, has maintained an active and transparent development pace since the game launched, shipping significant updates at regular intervals. Since the previous assessment in June 2026, two more substantial updates have arrived. On July 28, 2026, the developer shipped a large update adding fuel consumption, hunger and thirst systems, vehicle trailers, new locations (a lakeside recreation area, a bar, new grocery stores, an apartment block area), a card game, a hitchhiker NPC, and more — while also noting that fishing, wildlife NPCs, and game modes had been delayed and would follow "in approximately three weeks." True to that promise, the August 9, 2026 update delivered the new game modes (Casual, Standard, and Permadeath), with the developer explicitly stating that permadeath balancing and new achievements will continue in future updates. A minor bug-fix build followed on August 14, 2026. The July 28 update also mentioned that the fuel/hunger systems serve "as the foundation for new content coming to the game, on which I'm still working." Several locations added in that update were described as early versions with interiors and NPCs still to be added. The developer remains active and clearly has more work planned before a 1.0 release.
