Evaluation

WheelMates launched on Steam on September 1, 2026. On September 16, 2026, developer Firevolt published a post-launch update explicitly confirming that new content is already in development — they describe it as "more WheelMates for those who can't get enough" and state the work has already begun, with details to be shared when it's ready. They are also actively preparing console releases for Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation 5, and Nintendo Switch 2. This follows an earlier pre-launch Q&A on August 21, 2026 where the team confirmed DLC and major updates were planned. Since launch, Firevolt has been actively engaged: two hotfix patches shipped on September 7 and September 9, 2026, addressing progression blockers, co-op bugs, and performance issues. The only currently released DLC is the Supporter Pack (cosmetic content), which launched alongside the base game. The team is communicative, active, and has clearly stated that both new content and platform expansions are ahead.

Evidence

Developer confirms new content is already in development for players who finished the story, and console versions for Xbox Series X|S, PS5, and Nintendo Switch 2 are in active preparation. States 'WheelMates is still just getting started.'

About this game

You and a friend answer a call for help from a professor who has mysteriously disappeared. Take control of two tiny RC cars, drive through his maze-like home laboratory, overcome oversized obstacles, and uncover the strange experiments he left behind.

Every room turns the house into a playground for two tiny RC cars. Race across shelves, drift through cluttered desks, explore every location and piece together what really happened inside.

In this co-op journey your progress depends on working together. Solve puzzles and overcome challenges that require communication, timing, and both players doing their part.

Upgrade your RC cars with rope-swings, magnetic wheels, magnet grabs and other power-ups. Each new gadget opens up fresh way to exploration of the professor’s home.
