Like racing? Well, it’s time to forget everything you know about crossing the line first as ONRUSH gets ready to redefine the arcade racer.
Available to purchase right now on Xbox One and PS4, Codemasters – the kings of racing – are back with an all-new arcade racer. But ONRUSH is very different from anything that has gone before it. Very different.
In fact, it’s so different that the aim of ONRUSH is not to cross the finish line first, but instead utilise style, flair and a ton of utterly incredible takedowns as you try to help your team claim victory. With Boost playing a key role in any success, and a RUSH meter that changes the game on the fly, this is one racer which will satisfy the needs of the most hardcore adrenaline junkie.
“We’ve had a blast creating this completely original take on what the racing genre can do,” said Paul Rustchynsky, Game Director, ONRUSH. “We can’t wait for players to get their hands on ONRUSH and experience the thrill of takedowns, risky stunts and, of course, RUSH.
“We set out to create a racing game that was designed to be played together, with friends and against rivals,” Paul continued. “A game that’s inclusive, so people of all skill levels can enjoy playing together, including those that typically don’t play racing games, achieved by keeping players at the heart of the action at all times.”
If you’re looking for cool, calm and considered simulation racing, then move away from ONRUSH right now. But those fixated with arcade racing and some hardcore gravity defying madness, could do a whole load worse than pick up a copy of ONRUSH on Xbox One and PS4 right now. Of course, the usual digital stores will sort you out for a download – the big question is which edition will you get? The Standard for £54.99 or the Digital Deluxe Edition for a tenner more? The latter will deliver more vehicle designs, further artwork bits and a number of Track Tombstone additions.
Keep an eye out for our full review in the days ahead.
Game Description:
ONRUSH heralds the return of all-action, gravity defying, arcade racing. With the Standard Edition you’ll recieve the Day One Edition unique ‘Vortex’ buggy design. ONRUSH is not about racing to the finish line. It’s not about car set up or tyre choice. It’s all about style, flair and the feeling of performing incredible takedowns, racing on the edge of control and risking everything in an effort to take the victory for your team. No arcade game would be complete without Boost, and ONRUSH takes this to the next level with RUSH – the ultimate racing power up. A devastating and exhilarating burst of energy and power, RUSH is a true game changer that can wreak havoc and destroy your competition.
