Heading Out
A gameplay overview for Heading Out is out there to help us understand what is going on before Heading Out releases soon
Get those motors running and head out to the highway with the latest we have for Heading Out. Latest and best bit that Serious Sim and Saber Interactive have to offer up before the game releases on May 7th. Here we go with a look at how this narrative and open road game will actually function when we are able to get behind the wheel on the PC. We have more gameplay along with a bit of a breakdown of how Heading Out is going to handle out there once we turn the key and get on rolling down that road. Let us all dive in.
You can get a feel for the bits of gameplay we are going to have in Heading Out in the video below, but here is a quick recap of a few things. We will be driving about the world racing against some clocks in a Thema & Louise kind of story where we will need to run odd jobs along the way. All to outrun and escape the authorities, collect some cash, upgrade our vehicles, and navigate that open road. This is all about the journey and less about where we are going to end up. A journey that looks like it will have many paths to go down as we make choices along the way in the story of Heading Out. All in the end to give us a game that will have us driving around a very stylized world out there. Have a look and see how it will all flow with the following video we have.
Heading Out — Gameplay Overview
Are you interested in popping the hood and seeing what Heading Out has to offer? This presentation covers some finer points of navigating the open road, resource management, and, ultimately, yourself.
Heading Out is rolling in fast on May 7th!
It’s you, your car, and the road. Take off down America’s cities, highways, and backroads on an emotional trip of discovery blending white-knuckle racing, strategy, and storytelling. Grab the wheel and choose your own route across the USA on an unpredictable thrill ride shaped by the decisions you make. It’s not about the destination — it’s about your journey.
Key Features:
- Your Adventure: Each trip offers a unique balance of high-speed chases and races, treacherous hazards and challenges, and colorful characters and stories, brought to life with stylish graphic novel visuals. Outrun your fears and the law, pursue your dreams, and risk the consequences at the end of the road.
- Your Choices: Every journey is yours to define. Strategically plan out your route and resources in advance on the map, or hit the gas and fly by the seat of your pants. Each decision shapes the road ahead, including your narrative encounters, fuel consumption, car condition, and wanted level.
- Your Legend: Your unique story unfolds with every pitstop across the heartland. Meet strangers, oddballs, and lost souls who’ll influence your tale, but don’t linger too long – you’ve got to keep moving. Listen to radio hosts spread your myth to the people as it grows while an eclectic Americana soundtrack carries you down the horizon.
All in all, Heading Out does look like it is going to be more of a straightforward racing game that is not on a basic track. Not a terrible thing at all, but the main grind is to drive from one place to another. It does feel like this one will be all about the story that is told along the way and less about highlighting any of the big gameplay moments. Not a terrible thing, but worth noting since this breakdown does not show off much in the way of anything groundbreaking. I know I am still excited to see what Heading Out has to offer up and cannot wait to see more. We are only a month away from the launch, so I have a feeling that we are just getting the little teasing done for now and the bigger surprises are still to come.
Where are you rolling up when it comes to Heading Out the gameplay we have to see?

How different will each run be in the game or will it all boil down to the same ending with a few things changed along the way? Take to the comments and give us all of that discussion we keep looking for. There is still more to come for Heading Out and we will keep you updated here as best we can. Please keep on checking back for all of those updates along the way and the various others we can speed on out to you as well.
