DoloTwin

South Tyrol in 1:1 Scale

The idea behind DoloTwin is straightforward: we wanted to capture the driving feel of games like Forza Horizon or Test Drive Unlimited combined with the open-world sandbox freedom of Grand Theft Auto (GTA)—but set on a completely real map. Using real elevation and geographical data, we recreated the entire 7,400 km² region of South Tyrol (Northern Italy) at a 1:1 scale in Unreal Engine 5.

You can get behind the wheel and drive real mountain passes, step out of your car at any time to explore on foot, or hook up your home fitness gear via our Companion App to tackle the climbs physically.

Core Features

• 7,400 km² Open World: The entire map of South Tyrol is open from day one. The terrain, valleys, and mountain ranges match the real-world geography.
  
• First-Person & Third-Person Views: Switch freely between first-person and third-person perspectives at any time, both while driving and walking.
  
• Arcade Driving & Free Roam: Built around accessible arcade driving physics. Take on quests, test your times on winding pass roads, or just drive and explore at your own pace.
  
• MMO Multiplayer: Share the map with other players online. Meet up for group drives, interact in the open world, or compete in challenges. Logins are handled through our Development Forum, which supports direct Steam account sign-in.
  
• Fitness Hardware Support (Companion App): Beyond standard controllers and keyboards, our Companion App lets you use real bicycles, smart trainers, and treadmills to move in-game. It is designed to work even with fitness equipment that doesn't natively support gaming.

Who We Are & What to Expect

We (Martin and Thomas) are a two-brother indie team from South Tyrol building DoloTwin out of passion. Because a 7,400 km² map is massive for two people, we follow a simple rule: "make it happen first, make it good later." The entire map, multiplayer servers, driving mechanics, and Companion App are up and running. Visually, many towns are still in a basic placeholder/blockout state and are being progressively updated with custom 3D buildings, new quests, and more vehicle types like planes and boats.
