The price reveal landed on August 25, 2026 in an official Reddit post, after the developers had digested Next Fest feedback. The base game is $24.99 USD on Steam with a launch discount (size not yet announced) and usual regional pricing. There are no pre-orders at all; the only pre-launch purchase is nothing, which is refreshingly simple.
What each item costs
| Item | Price | What it is |
|---|---|---|
| over the hill (base game) | $24.99 USD | Steam launch price, launch discount on top, regional pricing applies |
| Soundtrack | $9.99 USD | Separate DLC, by Tatreal and Giacomo Giunchedi |
| Supporter Pack | $9.99 USD | Name tag, exclusive cosmetics, unique camping site, printable maps, 4K wallpaper album |
| Bundle (all three) | $37.99 USD | Roughly the price of the game plus both $9.99 items with a small bundle cut |
The Supporter Pack is a support-the-studio item, not a content gate: everything listed for it is cosmetic or physical-style bonus material (name tag, cosmetics, a unique camping spot, printable maps, wallpapers). The developers have also said they plan bundles with other games later.
No pre-orders, by choice
The price post is explicit: "There won't be any pre-orders, but we've put together a special Supporter Pack for anyone who'd like to help us take the journey a little further." The way to signal interest before October 14 is the Steam wishlist, and the way to play early is the limited Discord playtest, not a purchase.
⚠️ Unconfirmed. The exact launch-discount percentage has not been published. Console store pricing for 2027 is entirely unannounced; any dollar figure attached to PS5, Xbox or Switch 2 versions today is invented.
Reviews and the "is it worth it" question
The game does not release until October 14, 2026 (full timeline here), so there are no critic scores and no Steam user rating. What exists is Next Fest demo reception: broadly positive, with recurring asks around performance optimization (which the team says it has been working on since), more vehicles, and more camera options. We do not score games on this wiki; when launch reviews exist, this section will link the aggregates with dates. Meanwhile, which platform gets the game when is the practical buying question, and the FAQ collects the rest.
FAQ
How much does over the hill cost?
$24.99 USD on Steam at launch, with a launch discount and regional pricing. The discount percentage has not been announced yet.
Is there a deluxe or collector's edition?
Not as a game-content edition. The Supporter Pack ($9.99) is the closest thing: cosmetics, a unique camping site, printable maps and 4K wallpapers. Physical goodies have been teased but not detailed.
Can you pre-order over the hill?
No. The developers have said there will be no pre-orders at all. Wishlist the game on Steam and buy on October 14.
What does the $37.99 bundle include?
The base game, the soundtrack, and the Supporter Pack together, at a small saving over buying all three separately.
Is $9.99 the price of the game?
No, that is the soundtrack or the Supporter Pack. The game itself is $24.99. This page exists partly because search results confuse the two.
