Hyundai ventures into the realm of retro gaming, crafting an automobile inspired by timeless gaming classics.
The Hyundai Insteroid, a compact electric car with an upgraded look, is making a splash at Gamescom 2025. This exciting new development from Hyundai Motor Company was originally conceived as a virtual concept car for a race against the Renault 5 Turbo 3E.
But the Hyundai Insteroid isn't just a virtual car. It's a real-life electric vehicle that has been created from the popularity of the Hyundai Inster. Visitors at Gamescom 2025 can not only admire the sleek design of the car but also play a retro-style, classic-game-inspired button basher called Insteroid.
In the Insteroid game, players guide the Inster character through two stages, with the first stage evolving the character into the Insteroid. In this first stage, players collect steroid-can-shaped electricity items. The goal is to complete the mission as quickly as possible.
In the second stage, players guide the evolved character to trap the final boss within a maze. The gaming experience of the Insteroid game is going on a world tour, appearing in South Korea, Italy, and Japan within the year.
What sets the Insteroid game apart is its unique sounds. These include drifting, idling, boarding, and exiting, all developed specifically for the car. The game also features an integrated BeatHouse sound system, promising an insane sound system experience.
Whether you're a fan of cars or games, the Hyundai Insteroid is a must-see at Gamescom 2025. With its combination of real-life electric vehicle and retro-style game, it's sure to be a hit with visitors.
