Ready to get dirty? Don’t mind a little mud on your undercarriage, or some grit in your teeth? The ground may still be frozen solid across much of North America, but in the world of Overpass, it’s almost time to fire up your favorite quad and get racing. With the game’s PC release less than a week away, publisher Bigben just released a new gameplay video detailing Overpass’s two types of available tracks.
Part racing game, part puzzle, Overpass looks like it’s going to bring something unique to the motorsport genre. On the Obstacle Course tracks, players will need to figure out what combination of throttle, differential, and wheel positioning will get their chosen four-wheeler across each natural or artificial obstacle in the quickest time with the least amount of damage. For Hillclimbs, the idea is similar: reach the top through the various obstacles, but the risks to your vehicle are greater. The final game will feature over forty tracks across six different environments, allowing for plenty of variety and challenges.
Sitting at the start, ready to go.
Overpass will ship with a full career mode. Players can manage sponsors, build a garage of their favorite vehicles, and figure out which races to run in to dominate a season. Local and online game modes will also provide plenty of opportunity to challenge other players. The game features over twenty vehicles, and uses licenses from top manufacturers such as Polaris, Yamaha, Arctic Cat, and Suzuki.
Blasting up a mountain in a cloud of dust!
The game arrives on PCs via the Epic Game Store on February 27th, 2020. Console versions for the Sony PlayStation 4, Nintendo Switch, and Microsoft Xbox One will release on March 17th. Physical and digital pre-orders, with various in-game bonuses, are available on the official website https://play-overpass.com.
