- Performance, Translations, NPC ragdolls & more - 5 September 2026
Hey Tourists!The update is officially live! We spent the last month mostly working on improving performance, with a few other improvements and additions. More on it below. Optimization & PerformancePerformance was our priority for this release. After setting up an automated testing suite and upgrading to Unreal Engine 5.8, we went hunting for bottlenecks. We managed to double the framerate on our low-end test laptop ( with a GTX 1050Ti ), with substantial gains on mid-range rigs and better overall stability. Keep in mind that you still need at least a GTX 1000 series or equivalent (compatible DX11 or better) to run the game properly. Integrated graphics is not supported.Patch NotesEngine & PerformanceUpgraded engine to Unreal Engine 5.8 for performance, bug fixes and stability.Optimization: performance improvement on low-end and mid-range systems.Added an automatic hardware benchmark on…
- Upcoming Update - Optimization ! (Experimental Available) - 1 September 2026
Hey Tourists!The next update is coming soon. We spent the last month mostly under the hood, improving the game's performance, while working on the second map and polishing what's already available.Optimization, Performance & SettingsOptimization was the main mission. We started by building an automated performance testing system, so we could actually measure where the game was struggling instead of guessing. We also upgraded the game engine from Unreal Engine 5.7 to 5.8 as it was bringing many fixes and slight performance improvements by itself. Then we went hunting.The result: on one of our older test laptops running a GTX 1050 Ti, we more than doubled the framerate. Mid-range machines get a solid boost too. Together with a long round of debugging and crash fixes, this should make Rosalie more stable across the board.On first launch, Rosalie now also runs a short benchmark on your mach…

- Leaderboards Update - 1 June 2026
Hey Tourists! This update brings leaderboards to Rosalie. You can now compare your times to others, whether you play solo or duo, in normal or easy mode. Beware, to get a valid leaderboard time, there are a few rules: - You must validate every checkpoints. - Once you cross the first checkpoint, your run is marked as either solo or duo. After that, you must cross every checkpoint under the same conditions. - Do not change the difficulty of your save, or it will invalidate your time. Other than that, let the pilot in you do their best! Although this update only adds leaderboards, a lot of work has been done in the background for future updates (split-screen, camera rework, the second map, and more). Read more about this in our latest news post!Happy pedaling, Patch note: Leaderboards in solo/duo and easy/normalMain characters texture improvementFixed Smokes/Explosions render on some AMD G…

- Patch: 0.1.3 Motion sickness, cuts and tweaks - 27 March 2026

With an "off-road" vehicle bouncing over bumpy terrain not meant for a pedal car, this can happen!To address this, we’ve added a Free Camera Mode.
