Camper Van: Make it Home is a game about camperizing vans, where you embark on a journey of personal discovery while decorating your van and creating a space for all your belongings.

Camper Van: Make It Home is a cozy videogame for camperizing vans which will take you to discover a story through the objects, adventures and experiences of its protagonist. Inspired by the relaxing experience of Unpacking, it will make the gamers live a journey of personal discovery.

In Camper Van: Make It Home, gamers will be able to camperize their own van and will embark on a journey of personal discovery while creating a space as creative as useful to organize all their belongings.

The game allows gamers to delve into the story of its protagonist, who leaves behind her comfortable and monotonous life to dare to explore a nomadic, more natural, and environmentally aware one. This title invites us to discover the experiences the main character goes through on each trip thanks to the objects she carries with her, the ones she collects, the ones that undergo changes, and the ones she leaves behind.

The journey starts with a totally empty van in a charming destination. In the process of camperizing, it will be possible to add as much furniture as space allows. Once furnished, the goal will be to store and sort all the traveler's belongings, which will be available in a pack list. Not only is it possible to decorate the space inside the van, but also the exterior is customizable.

Once the process of camperizing and organizing is finished, it will be the time to move on to the next journey. What will be the destination? For that, we will still have to wait a little longer.


Developer Malapata Studio announced a special collaboration with Juanma Latorre, guitarist and composer of the renowned band Vetusta Morla, who will compose Camper Van: Make it Home’s official soundtrack.

Juanma Latorre joined the project after meeting the studio’s team through a mutual friend, Arturo Monedero, with whom he had collaborated previously. The concept of Camper Van: Make it Home resonated with him because of the game’s values of connection with nature and self-discovery. “It’s a special project that combines an outward journey with an inward one; an adventure that allows you to reconnect, connect with nature, and experience the freedom of exploring in a camper van,” Latorre commented about the collaboration. For him, the opportunity to contribute a soundtrack that captures this essence was a unique chance to add an emotional layer to the game.

Latorre's participation in the Save & Sound event marks the beginning of this musical collaboration, with a presentation showcasing some of the melodies he has composed especially for the game. According to the development team, the soundtrack aims to capture the calm, creativity, and sense of belonging that characterize the experience of van customization and living within it.
