TheXboxHubNeil WattonAug 20254.5/5 starsWheel World is a triumphant celebration of the bike; a game that understands the culture of cycling. That is something which is long overdue, and you’ll not be left wanting by the open world rides, and highly replayable races, it allows.

GameGrinDylan PamintuanJul 20259/10Wheel 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.

Metro GameCentralJul 20254/10A quirky and offbeat open world biking RPG that works nicely until races get more taxing, at which point its mechanical limitations make it frustrating to play

Game InformerWesley LeBlancJul 20255/10Wheel World is an amalgamation of boring races and exploration, poor storytelling, and often clumsy gameplay that never felt great.
