Rollout Inline September 15, 2026 Early Access Launch
What shipped on day one for MLMEDIA’s aggressive inline skating game.
Rollout Inline entered Steam Early Access on September 15, 2026, priced around $18.99, with a Very Positive review trajectory in the mid-90s percent range shortly after release. Built by solo developer MLMEDIA (also known for Rooftops & Alleys), the launch positions the game as a modern aggressive inline simcade: intuitive enough to learn, physical enough to reward mastery. The official Early Access launch trailer is embedded above; use it as a feature tour, then read the concrete ship list below.

Feature checklist at launch
Official materials call out: Riding, Grinding, Cess Slides, Free Spinning & Flipping, Air Grabs, Toe/Heel Rolls, Handplants, Physics/Momentum-based Movement, Ragdoll, Balancing Mechanics (Optional), Multiple Maps, Intuitive Controls, Replay Editor, Original in-game Music/Radio, Challenges, Progression System, and Difficulty Settings.
The dual-stick philosophy is the differentiator: left stick steers and spins, right stick jumps, and grinds/cess slides use both sticks with each stick representing a foot. Alternative spinning controls in settings can unlock more freedom. Deep tutorial coverage lives in Controls and Tricks and Grinds.
Maps and challenge structure
The three launch maps emphasize aggressive park language—massive gaps, long rails, vert ramps, pools, and more. Challenges show up on every map. Clear a batch to raise map level and reveal a harder set while keeping older challenges available. That loop feeds clothing unlocks and long-term goals without a separate multiplayer season pass. Practical routing tips: Challenges and Progression and Maps Overview.
Hardware and performance notes shipping with the build
Minimum specs target accessible gaming PCs: Windows 10+, Intel Core i5-6600K or AMD Ryzen 3 3300X, 8 GB RAM, GeForce GTX 1050 Ti or Radeon RX 460 (4 GB), DirectX 12, about 2 GB storage. Recommended notes emphasize 16 GB RAM and the same DirectX/storage floor, with repeated guidance that the game plays best at high FPS—tune for at least 60.
Controller guidance bundled with requirements: connect the pad before launch; Xbox controllers recommended including force feedback; DualShock/non-Xbox pads may need Steam Input attention; DualShock/DualSense users should prefer USB when troubleshooting.

What launch is not
- Not a Roblox experience and not a codes-driven live game
- Not keyboard-friendly
- Not a multiplayer session browser
- Not a finished map roster—three is the starting count
- Not a promise that Q3/Q4 2027 is immovable
Keeping those boundaries clear prevents Early Access disappointment and keeps wiki advice honest.
Day-one player checklist
- Connect an Xbox-preferred controller (or USB PlayStation pad) before boot.
- Confirm 60 FPS targets on your hardware.
- Complete the onboarding path in Getting Started.
- Learn stick roles before maxing difficulty.
- Clear one easy challenge batch and inspect clothing unlocks via Character and Skates.
- Bookmark this Updates Hub for patches.
Where the trailer fits
The launch trailer showcases movement, challenges, and progression tone. It is not a substitute for stick time. After watching, skate a quiet rail line, then compare your feel against the Trick Difficulty ladder so expectations stay calibrated.
