Okay, grab your warmest hat and prepare for some hilarious downhill mayhem.
The viral indie sensation, Sledding Game, developed by the one-man powerhouse known as The Sledding Corporation (aka Max), has officially announced it’s sliding onto Xbox consoles and, crucially, day one into Xbox Game Pass!
This delightfully chaotic multiplayer snowsports hangout, which recently exploded in popularity on Steam, promises a unique blend of sledding, social interaction, and spectacular ragdoll crashes, all coming soon to the Xbox ecosystem.
Welcome to the Ultimate Snow Day
Forget complex controls and deep narratives; Sledding Game is all about pure, unadulterated fun with friends. It’s described as a “friendslop game,” a multiplayer hangout where you jump onto a sled and see what happens next.
The core of the experience is its social interaction, powered by proximity voice chat. You can chat with your mates as you hurtle down the slopes, coordinate strategies for minigames, or simply express your feelings by repeatedly crashing into each other with glorious ragdoll physics.
More Than Just Sledding
While the main event is careening down snowy hills, there’s a surprising amount to do in this winter wonderland.
You can race your friends down treacherous slopes, try to stack up points by landing gnarly tricks, or engage in a variety of minigames. Fancy a snowball fight? Or maybe a quick game of darts in the lodge? It’s all here.
If competition isn’t your thing, you can simply hang out, explore the environment, and enjoy a virtual cup of hot cocoa. You can also spend your time unlocking cool cosmetics to customize your avatar and show off your unique style.
The snowy landscape is yours to explore, but venture too far off the beaten path, and you might encounter the Yeti, who isn’t too fond of trespassers and will swiftly kick you back onto the map. You have been warned!
The Solo Dev Journey
This incredible success story comes from Max, a solo developer based in the US, working under the banner of The Sledding Corporation. What started as a fun side project documented on YouTube and TikTok has genuinely snowballed into a highly anticipated release.
The slopes are calling, and soon Xbox players will be able to answer. With its simple premise, emergent chaotic fun, and the promise of hilarious moments with friends, Sledding Game looks set to be a massive hit on Game Pass. There’s a Steam page to consider if you like too.
Prepare for the ultimate virtual snow day.
