Over the hill meteorites: finding impacts and demo extraction

Field Guide editorial desk·Reviewed 15 October 2026

Find the glowing impact after a falling meteor. If you are playing the June demo, connect the rear winch directly to the meteorite, then apply throttle while pulling the winch. The exact full-release extraction sequence has not been verified, so the demo steps below are kept separate.

Quick guide

Two version branches. Do not treat the June demo extraction as a tested launch-build solution.

Identify your build: June demo instructions are below; full-release controls remain a gap.
Locate the visible impact and approach with room to reposition the car.
June demo only: connect rear winch directly to meteorite; throttle and pull together.
For large demo meteorites, each helper attaches directly to the rock rather than chaining cars.

Full release: find the impact, then recognise the evidence gap

Use the visible fall and glowing landing point to decide where to drive. Approach from ground where you can turn or reverse rather than trapping the car against the impact.

The exact current attachment prompt, required pull and completion cue are not confirmed here. We cannot give you a reliable release-build extraction sequence yet. Do not follow an invented key combination or drive to a claimed fixed coordinate from an older demo.

June demo only: rear winch, throttle and pull

Bring a vehicle with its winch usable and position it so the rear attachment can pull away from the meteorite.

Select the rear winch attachment and connect it directly to the meteorite.
Apply throttle and pull the winch together to tug it out.
If a large meteorite does not move in multiplayer, have each helper connect directly to it; do not connect the helpers to another car.
Continue only once the rock has come free; inspect the resulting completion/reward display before leaving. No fixed pull duration or payout is established here.

June demo only: fix the connection before repeating the pull

If the cable ends on another car, disconnect and attach to the meteorite itself. If the car is wedged against terrain, reposition it before repeating the throttle-and-winch pull. More cars in a chain are not the developer’s advice for a large meteorite.

Sources & version notes

Demo procedure: developer miketsukami bo., June 19, 2026, “Meteor Tugging Inconsistency.” Large multiplayer rocks may need friends, each attached directly. This is not a current-release test.

Release review 06:18 discusses the meteorite/reward loop but does not establish the full input sequence. Still missing: release-specific extraction footage or developer instructions, current completion cues and reward values.

Release-era sources reviewed on October 15, 2026. Older FAQ plans are distinguished from current launch information; editorial advice is not a claim of hands-on testing.
