Drive a championship-winning Mars Rover across photorealistic URC terrain. Experience real URC competition missions; built in Unreal Engine 5 by the URC 2017, 2025, and 2026 World Champions. Out now, free to play on Steam.
Photorealistic Martian terrain, true-to-life rover physics, and real URC missions. All running in Unreal Engine 5.
Every mission in RoveSoSimulator is modeled after actual University Rover Challenge tasks; the same ones that took MRDT to be World Champions.
Explore vast Martian landscapes built in Unreal Engine 5 using Nanite and Lumen, real-time global illumination, dynamic dust storms, and surface detail drawn from USGS LiDAR imagery.
Complete official University Rover Challenge mission types: autonomous traversal, equipment servicing, and delivery.
Drive the actual rover geometry used by MRDT. The mantis suspension, wheel slip on loose regolith, and center-of-mass dynamics are modeled to match the real hardware built at Missouri S&T.
Drive with a gamepad for precise rover control, or use keyboard and mouse. Multiple camera modes; driver cam, chase cam, overhead map view, and arm camera, let you tackle any mission your way.
Released August 12, 2026; free to play, no strings attached.
Built with Unreal Engine 5 by a team of engineers at Missouri S&T who know what it takes to drive a rover on simulated Mars; because they've done it in Utah.
