Hi all!
It’s been just over a month since Cycling Champion launched in Early Access!
It’s been a very modest launch, which is understandable given my zero marketing budget and the limited time I’ve been able to dedicate to the game.
Even so, thanks to all your feedback, I’ve already released several updates improving, fixing and balancing the game.
Here are the biggest updates I’m currently planning on the road to the full release:
September 2026 — v0.1.6: New Challenge Mode A complete overhaul of Challenge Mode, with a new progression system and different cyclists to unlock and master.
October 2026 — v0.2.0: Teams + Editor Teams will arrive in Cycling Champion, together with an editor that will give you more ways to customize the game.
November–December 2026 — v0.3.0: 1v1 Multiplayer Race against another player and put your tactics to the test in head-to-head races.
January–February 2027 — ??? There are still a few things I’d like to add before leaving Early Access. More details will come later!
May 2027 — v1.0.0: Full Release The finish line of Early Access. Cycling Champion will reach version 1.0 around the start of the Giro d’Italia.
These are the major milestones, but there will also be smaller releases in between, adding content, fixing issues and continuing to improve and balance the game.
As always, plans may change depending on development and your feedback.
Thanks to everyone who has played, shared feedback or supported Cycling Champion so far.
The road to 1.0 continues! 🚴
