Comic book-style road trip driving game Heading Out is making a beeline for the PS5.

The game – by Serious Sim and Crunching Koalas – is “not about the destination but the journey”, according to the press release.

“Heading Out is a genre-bending road trip adventure that fuses high-speed racing with immersive storytelling,” the blurb continues.

“Inspired by cult classic American road movies, this narrative-driven experience invites you to outrun your fears and carve your legend across the open highways of a mythic, timeless America.”

With a sharp cel-shaded art style, this invokes memories of the Initial D games or even Auto Modellista, although its mostly monochrome colour palette is particularly unique.

What’s even more interesting here is that your decisions will have consequences on the outcome of the story, and you’ll need to think carefully about which roads you take and why. Will you have enough fuel to reach your next destination if you take the long way, for example?

The game’s already available on PC, where it’s been mostly warmly received – and it’s not overly expensive either. While there’s no release date just yet, you can wishlist the title on the PS Store right now if you want to be notified as soon as it becomes available.
