Are you ready for a racer like no other? Trailblazers brings co-op racing and track painting together as one!
Available today on Xbox One – with a PS4 and PC release seeing Trailblazers arrive a day earlier – Trailblazers brings high speed thrills, an explosion of colour and some hugely innovative racing ideas.
With a price of £23.99 in place (although for a limited period you’ll find a launch discount available on that), Trailblazers delivers a rather unique racing mechanic or two. Not only will you take on the opposition in teams of three vs three, but in order to ensure your team members get the upper hand on any rivals, painting the track with boost lines is a key strategic feature.
This will ensure that you get to experience blistering high speed action as you drive with flair and style, racking up skill points and taking yourself to utter glory. With no two races ever being the same, multiple game modes in place AND a full story campaign to discover, whether you’re looking to take on the Trailblazers world alone, or with friends, this is one racer that will have you sorted.
“The development of Trailblazers has been an incredible journey and we’re very excited now that launch day has finally arrived,” states Ben Ward, Founder and Lead Designer at Supergonk. “Our indie team had the ambitious goal of bringing something truly innovative to the racing genre and I feel we really achieved that with Trailblazers.”
“Trailblazers has the strong combination of stunning visuals and unique gameplay that potentially lead to the beginning of a strong franchise run,” states Lee Skittrell, Marketing Manager at Rising Star Games. “The Supergonk development team has created something truly dynamic and special to the racing genre and we’re thrilled to be part of the Trailblazers ride.”
