Warp Drive is just a standard everyday arcade racer, yeah? Well, no. Because in Warp Drive you’ll find yourself teleporting your way to victory.Â
Available to purchase and download right now on Xbox One and Xbox Series X|S, Warp Drive comes about via the Supergonk team, playing on the back of a previous PC and Apple Arcade drop.
It comes to Xbox with a rather distinct visual style, one that weirdly has been used to a lesser extent in the most recent Need for Speed Unbound. Bright, supercolourful and running as smooth as you could imagine, Warp Drive is all about crossing the line first. It’s just how you go about that which is a little different to the norm.Â
Priced at £20.99, Warp Drive throws you behind the wheel of a powerful Quad Rotor; a drone-cum-WipeOut-styled racecraft. From there, it’s all about the win, as you hit the track with a number of others, looking to best anything and everything they can do.
Upgrading that Quad Rotor is key to your success, but so is the utilisation of many weapon types – missiles, bombs, and more. But the most exciting addition to Warp Drive is the inclusion of the titular teleporting black holes, as you quite literally warp your way to victory.Â
We’re super excited to get hands-on with Warp Drive on Xbox, providing a review on the back of our playthrough. If you wish to join us, hit up the Xbox Store and take home a download.Â
