Co-op Racer Trailblazer Coming in Spring 2018

Videogame publisher Rising Star Games and independent game developer Supergonk, announced a new racing game called Trailblazers. Its claim to fame is that it is said to be the world’s first true, second-to-second co-operative arcade racing game. It will be unleashed across all major gaming platforms, including the Xbox One, in Spring 2018.

Trailblazers is a new co-operative racing title with an new innovative on-track game mechanic: paint the track, boost on your color, and work as a team to win! Racing in teams of up to three-versus-three, players paint the track as they race, capturing key areas to dynamically change the racing line, then boosting on their team’s color. Racers who drive with flair and style will also amass skill points to blaze their way to victory! Players can experience the blistering high-speed action with up to six players online, or locally via split-screen for up to four local players with additional online or CPU-controlled challengers.

The game takes place in a lavishly designed world from the creative mind of BAFTA award-winning artist Will Milton. Players race through expansive and scenic tracks set across locations ranging from mountain tops to lush forests and arid desert valleys. Aural soundscapes are provided via the officially licensed soundtrack featuring leaders of the Future Funk genre, including Get On Up by Skope, Bad King Kong by The Derevolutions, and Dead Ringer by A.Skillz.

A final tidbit of information for you. Players will race as, and alongside, a diverse cast of characters. Each driver plays a vital role in the racing community and unfolding story of the Trailblazers world, and each has a unique role and driving behaviour. Players can also choose from a showroom of the fastest race cars in the galaxy, each with customised stats to fit every play style and track type.

We hope to have more coverage of the game as the launch date gets firmed up, and more gameplay impressions hit the web.
