Are you ready to Rocket Rumble?

Stick the word ‘Rumble’ into a game name and you should know what to expect. Prefix that with ‘Rocket’, chucking in some animals as you go, and you’ve got something that should well excite. Let’s hope that the release of Rocket Rumble onto Xbox, PlayStation and PC does just that… 

Available right now on Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation 5 and PC is Rocket Rumble from the PixelNAUTS Games team. This is a game that has been in PC Early Access for a good few years already, but now it is launching in full, for real, bringing party-based racing brawl action to the masses. 

A rumble with rockets?

Priced at £20.99 on the Xbox Store, with a Free Trial if you prefer, Rocket Rumble sees you joining a cast of rocket powered animal racers as they look to prove themselves as champion racer. Racing to victory is the main focus, but as with many party games, it’s not always best to just shoot off in front and hope for the best. 

Nope, in Rocket Rumble you’ll gain points for ticking off checkpoints before all others, but you’ll gain more for dishing out some damage too, knocking opponents off course. When you consider this is a fast paced action brawler, you can bet your bottom dollar that the fighting aspect wil be key. 

Playable online or through local play, catering for up to four players, Rocket Rumble comes to Xbox, PlayStation and PC with some wild tracks, ramps, boosters and more, procedurally generated to add to the fun. There’s also a ton of customisation available as well, much as you would expect from a party game. We’d say that will aid this as it looks to gain traction in your party gaming roster.
