Indie developer Robot Laser Shark has announced that Grannies on Wheels, a chaotic four-player party game, is slated for a Steam release in early 2027. The Estonia-based studio's latest project transforms a family feud into vehicle combat inside bright, toy-like arenas made of clay.
Quick Facts
- Game Title: Grannies on Wheels
- Developer: Robot Laser Shark
- Platform: PC via Steam (with Steam Deck and Linux support planned)
- Release Window: Early 2027
- Player Count: Up to four players on a single screen
Chaos in Clay Arenas
Up to four players share one screen, each driving an oversized monster truck through destructible clay stages. The primary objective centers around jars of jam, where each jar serves as a single life. Players must protect their own jars while crashing into rivals to steal theirs, leaving the last driving granny victorious.
Match rules can shift dynamically through odd camera angles, reversed controls, or unexpected black holes. The gameplay loop relies on quick driving, jumping, and smashing, with destructible ground and flying props keeping matches unpredictable.
Linux and Steam Deck Compatibility Details
For handheld and desktop Linux players, the studio states that the game is coming first "via Windows." According to the developers, the game already functions on Steam Deck, and the team will explore a native build version once the launch version is finalized. Built using Unreal Engine 5, the project has a solid technical base, though the studio has not yet shared frame rate targets, system requirements, or official Valve verification details.
Players can wishlist Grannies on Wheels now on Steam ahead of its early 2027 launch window.
