Bugbear Entertainment Working on New PC Next-Gen Racing Game
Peter Donnell / 12 years ago
Demolition derby is set to return in a very big way! Best known for their critically acclaimed, multi-million selling “FlatOut” series (FlatOut, FlatOut 2, FlatOut: Ultimate Carnage) and most recently for Ridge Racer Unbounded, team Bugbear is going to deliver the definitive demolition derby racing game soon.
“We are returning to our roots to make this game, re-interpreting what initially excited us way back in FlatOut days. It’s full-contact motor sports with cars built for crashing. We’re doing it because our fans have been asking for this kind of game for years. We get the messages every week.”
“Nobody else seems capable of delivering what they need, and there hasn’t been a proper demolition derby game for a long time. It’s about time the fans got an answer.”
“Technology now allows us to fully realize what we imagined back then – debris-filled scenes of high speed carnage. We’re taking destruction racing to a level you’ve never seen before. We can put tons more metal and dirt in the air now, and that’s exactly what we’re going to do. We want to make you feel the carnage. We’re calling it just our next car game for now. It’s coming for the PC and yet to be announced platforms. More news soon.”
The FlatOut games used to be a lot of fun on the PC, I even still go back for a few games of FlatOut 2 from time to time myself and the prospect of a next-gen fully up-to-date and no doubt packed to the max with epic physics based destruction makes this one game I really can’t wait to see in action.
