PC Critic Reviews

Wheel World is a cyclist’s haven, with tons of challenging races to beat, lands to cycle through, and heaps of customisation options to create your perfect bicycle. Highly recommended.

While it’s not as long as I would like, Wheel World is still an excellent time. The races are awesome, finding parts is fun, and riding around is a pretty chill time. Bike customization lost its shine for me earlier than I anticipated, but the races themselves never diminished even slightly. Depending on what you’re looking for, this short length (4-6 hours) could be just perfect for you. Regardless, you’ll have a great time in Wheel World while you’re here. Anyone looking for a chill, cool, slightly weird racing game would do well to check this one out.

Wheel World is an excellent game, bringing a realistic weightiness from the bike handling and merging it with a beautiful world that's a joy to explore.

Get on your bike and ride - Wheel World is a sheer joy, and one of 2025's most relaxing games.

That choice, to ride how you want, to shape your experience not just through specs but through connection, is the heart of Wheel World. It’s a title that take you by surprise offering more than expected through its flexibility and reverence.

Developers Messhof have created a cycling utopia with Wheel World; they’ve created a universe that celebrates the art of cycling and includes a pumping soundtrack to go along with it. It’s a game that I’m honestly surprised hasn’t been made sooner, due to how prevalent cycling is as a mode of transport and how cyclists love their bikes and the freedom they give them. This is one that I would recommend to my non-gamer cycling mates, as it’s so easy to pick up and will provide them with an immersive world that I know they’d just love to be a reality.

If Wheel World set out to be a cycling-themed open world, well, it's nailed it. There are a few niggles, but nothing too serious and/or that can't be fixed with a patch in the days following launch.

A wonderful open world adventure filled with racing and exploration, Wheel World is a joy to behold thanks to its intuitive controls and stunning cel-shaded art style. Even if you're not a fan of bicycles, this gorgeous little game is well worth your time.

Wheel World was a real surprise for me. Its simple yet detailed world, satisfying racing and customization options, and great music introduced me to the world of bike racing, which I didn't know I loved so much. Whether you like the genre or not, give Wheel World a try if you want to relax and have some fun without putting in too much effort.

Wheel World is one of those experiences that embraces the player with its lighthearted atmosphere, friendly visuals, and welcoming soundtrack. While it's not a game that relies on major twists or complex challenges, it knows exactly what it wants to deliver: an uncomplicated, fun, and engaging adventure, with a healthy dose of exploration, customization, and naturally evolving racing mechanics.
