Half Grip is a pixel-art roguelike combat racing game in development at Half Games, designed to be played with one hand. It is scheduled for release on PC via Steam in 2026, and a gameplay trailer has been released.
Half Grip is a combat racing game from developer Half Games in which everything is controlled with a single arm. Steering, gear changes, shooting, and reloading all share that one arm, so racing becomes a trade-off between driving and firing. The studio has described the game as a pixel-art roguelike, with players racing armed rivals and using items such as rams, shotguns, magnets, and landmines.
Prize money from races funds vehicle upgrades and weapons, tying the racing to the roguelike progression loop. Wishlist registration opened alongside the game's announcement, and a gameplay trailer followed a month later. Both stories state the game is scheduled for release in 2026.
The trailer story adds the platform detail: the game is set for release on PC via Steam. The earlier story did not name a platform. That is the main piece of new information across the two stories, along with the trailer itself, which presents the one-arm control scheme as the game's central design idea.
