      Dieser Beitrag wurde von den Benutzern als News markiert
      Curve Digital is delighted to unveil the colourful retro-inspired racing game, Hotshot Racing, from Lucky Mountain Games and experienced racing genre stalwarts, Sumo Digital. Hotshot Racing channels classic arcade racers sporting colorful polygonal visuals, boost-fuelled drift gameplay and a silky smooth 60 frames per second in the game’s single-player modes regardless of platform.



      Hotshot Racing is set to emulate and expand upon the classic ‘90s arcade racing game formula featuring eight different hotshot drivers to choose from (each with their own personality and multiple varied four-wheeled rides), 16 personality-filled sun-baked tracks from across the globe, and multiple game modes for players to prove their driving prowess.

      “When we first played Hotshot Racing we were immediately transported to the halcyon days of our youth when we used to pop 50p coins into classic arcade racers like Virtua Racing, Crusin’ USA, SEGA Rally and others that used to punctuate seafronts across the UK” said Simon Byron, Curve Digital’s Publishing Director. “It’s fantastic to see this type of gameplay make a triumphant return and we can’t wait to see what people make of it!”

      Hotshot Racing will also feature multiple single-player and multiplayer game modes - both online and offline including 4-player local split-screen co-op.

      There’s the traditional Grand Prix mode where challengers race on multiple tracks in multi-round championship, Time Trial mode where players complete laps as they wish to seek out the fastest lap time for the online leaderboards, Cops and Robbers mode where the criminals need to evade capture to secure a big cash bonus whereas the police need to take them down, and the Drive or Explode where players need to race to checkpoints to avoid exploding.

      Hotshot Racing is set to launch for PC and consoles later this Spring and is available to Wishlist on Steam from today via store.steampowered.com/app/609920/Hotshot_Racing

    • Sieht gut aus. Mag solche Racer, gibt es leider viel zu wenig (aktuelle) von. Erinnert mich etwas an Bleifuss (Screamer), falls das noch wer kennt.

      Geniales DOS Game von ~1995.



      Beste war es im Netzwerk, es hat immer der schnellste PC gewonnen, wenn man halbwegs gleich gut war, das Spiel lief da dann schneller und ich hatte 1995 einen Pentium 1 120. :lol:

      For the game’s full feature breakdown, please see below:

      GAME MODES
      Time Trial and Grand Prix modes cater to those who like to compete in classic racing formats, while ‘Cops and Robbers’ and ‘Drive or Explode’ modes offer exhilarating new ways to play. Each mode is available in single-player, four-player split-screen and eight-player online, while Time Trial is single-player only. Single-player modes run at a blistering 60FPS to deliver one of the fastest depictions of racing possible. Smash lap records to rise-up the global online leaderboards or download ghost laps to match your racing lines against the very best.

      THE CIRCUITS
      16 racing circuits provide the twists, turns and straights conducive to searingly quick racing. Take in coastal, jungle, alpine and Las Vegas desert environments, with each course modelled with the most vivid colours and blue skies for miles.


      MEET THE HOTSHOTS
      Keiko, Xing, Mike, Alexa, Aston, Toshiro, Marcus and Viktor - eight speed addicts that have dedicated their lives to the pursuit of being the greatest racing driver in the world.


      CATCH THE DRIFT
      Drifting is crucial in Hotshot Racing. Boost charges as the player drifts, so maintaining it for as long as possible is vital to preserving maximum speed throughout a race.

      DRIVE OR EXPLODE
      In this mode each car has a bomb attached to it. Drop below a certain speed and BOOM! The trigger speed gets faster and faster, forcing players to maintain impossibly high speeds.

      COPS AND ROBBERS
      Robbers evade the cops. Cops catch the robbers, and in doing so convert them to the police side, leading to an exciting test of skill for the surviving criminals.

    • Draussen und sogar teil des Xbox Game Pass!

      Curve Digital, Sumo Nottingham and Lucky Mountain Games are delighted to announce that their blisteringly fast arcade racing game, Hotshot Racing, launches today for PC, Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4 and Xbox One.

      Developed by esteemed racing game veterans Sumo Nottingham (Outrun 2, Sonic & SEGA All Star Racing, Team Sonic Racing and more) and Lucky Mountain Games, Hotshot Racing takes the colourful and iconic arcade racing formula of the 90s and updates it for the modern generation.



      Featuring tracks in playfully reimagined locations from across the globe, drivers bursting with personality and an easy to pick up yet hard to master drift-centric gameplay, this new release is sure to be a winner with anyone who spent their formative years slinging coins into driving games at arcades. Thankfully though this arcade racer is easy on the wallet…

      Hotshot Racing’s recommended retail price is £15.99 / €19.99 / $19.99 USD but during the week of launch, prospective racers can purchase the game for 20% off that price. Additionally, there are no microtransactions, and Sumo Nottingham and Lucky Mountain Games are already working on free post-release downloadable content in the guise of new tracks, a new championship and more! Further details on this exciting new content will be shared in the weeks ahead.

      Xbox One Game Pass subscribers have even more reason to be excited as Hotshot Racing will be available on the service from launch.

      For the full breakdown of Hotshot Racing’s extensive features, check out the rundown below:

      - RACE AROUND THE WORLD
      Hotshot Racing features 16 tracks set across the globe with sharp corners providing technical yet enjoyable challenges. Take in coastal, jungle, alpine and Las Vegas desert environments, with each course modelled with the most vivid colours and blue skies for miles.

      - PLAY YOUR WAY (AGAINST AI, 8 PLAYER ONLINE and LOCAL 4 PLAYER SPLITSCREEN)
      Time Trial and Grand Prix modes cater to those who like to compete in classic racing formats, while ‘Cops and Robbers’ and ‘Drive or Explode’ modes offer exhilarating new ways to play. Each mode is available in single-player, four-player split-screen and eight-player online, while Time Trial is single-player only. Smash lap records to rise-up the global online leaderboards or download ghost laps to match your racing lines against the very best.

      - 60FPS ON EVERY PLATFORM
      Thanks to the awesome Sumo Engine, Hotshot Racing runs at a solid 60 frames per second in all single-player game modes! This 60FPS performance promise also includes basic Xbox One and PlayStation 4 models, as well as Nintendo Switch.

      - MEET THE HOTSHOTS
      Keiko, Xing, Mike, Alexa, Aston, Toshiro, Marcus and Viktor - eight speed addicts that have dedicated their lives to the pursuit of being the greatest racing driver in the world. These racers have no qualms about rubbing fenders and quarter panels before reaching the chequered flag. Each racer has four unique vehicles which pay homage to some of the most iconic racing cars on the planet.

      - ADDITIONAL RACE TYPES
      In addition to classic single race and championship game modes, Hotshot Racing also features two new signature game modes; Drive or Explode and Cops And Robbers. In Drive or Explode players must keep their vehicle above a minimum speed which continues to increase at regular intervals. Drop below that speed and the car begins to take damage. Too little speed or too many bumps with your fellow competitors and BOOM - game over! Cops And Robbers is an eight-player game mode which casts players as law enforcement or criminals. The robbers need to flee their pursuers while the cops need to catch them. Each robber apprehended is immediately drafted into the cops in this frenetic yet fun game of cat and mouse.

      - GOTTA UNLOCK ‘EM ALL
      It’s only through mastery of these 16 courses that players will be able to unlock everything Hotshot Racing has to offer. Every race completed earns players dollars based on their performance which they can utilise to customise their ride from new chassis components to cockpit ‘improvements’ like furry dice and bobbleheads. There are dozens and dozens to choose from, some of which are unlockable with in-game currency whereas others are by achieving in-game objectives such as winning championships, drifting for a certain amount of time etc. All customisations are purely cosmetic and ensure your ride will appear different to your competitors when you roar over the finishing line.

    • Auch schon geladen und die Spritztour Liga auf Normal mit Gold Abgeschlossen.

      Genau auf so einen Arcade Racer hab ich schon lange gewartet, fühlt sich tatsächlich an wie ein Sega Arcade Racing Game aus den 90er.
      Dazu eine aufgebohrte VR Grafik die zumindest auf der One X komplett ohne Pop Ups und in 60FPS über den Bildschirm saust, da kommt echte Arcade Racing Freude auf.
      Passend dazu natürlich noch der überdrehte Kommentator, und dazu gar noch einen zweiten der mich eher an den aus Ridge Racer 5 erinnert.
      (muss ich unbedingt auch mal wieder einlegen)

      Die Steuerung geht Arcadig einfach von der Hand und die Kurse sind mit allerlei Beiwerk geschmückt.

      Ich bin damit erst mal Glücklich, und mit dem Umfang von 16 Kursen erst mal länger beschäftigt, doch würde ich mir genau so einen Racer mit einer an die Sega Model 3 angelehnte Technik auch noch Wünschen.

      Ich wollte mir das Spiel ja eigentlich für meine Switch Kaufen um das Spiel unterwegs zocken zu können, hab dafür auch schon mein Konto Aufgeladen, doch freue ich mich dank Game Pass da erst mal reinspielen zu können.

      Geht mir auch so. :D Im Grunde das ideale Game für die Switch! Mit der Ankündigung, dass es im Game Pass landet, werde ich auch erst einmal ein paar Runden auf der One drehen. Wenn es mir tatsächlich so taugt wie ich denke, werd ich es mir aber sicherlich noch auf der Switch für unterwegs sichern. :)

      Sehr gern! Wenn du am Wochenende Zeit haben solltest meld' dich auf jeden Fall. Da mein Urlaub coronabedingt abgesagt ist (Mallorca Trip war geplant :rolleyes: ), steht das Wochenende auch nichts besonderes an. :)


      Edit: Gerade die ersten Runden gedreht und auch direkt die erste Meisterschaft mit Gold auf Normal beendet. Am Anfang musste ich mich kurz an die Fahrphysik gewöhnen, dann ging es aber ziemlich gut von der Hand. :D
      Mal schauen ob meine Renntaktik im Verlauf das Spiels auf höheren Schwierigkeitsgraden auch noch funktioniert. Sinnvoll erscheint mir derzeit auf jeden Fall in den ersten beiden Runden nicht großartig zu boosten, sondern immer den Windschatten nutzen um an den ersten Plätzen dran zu bleiben. In der letzten Runde dann möglichst spät durchboosten, bestenfalls bis zur Zieldurchfahrt - Sieg.

      Hab dich gestern über die xbox app angeschrieben. Mein Handy auf der Arbeit vergessen und somit bis Montag whatsapp und Telefon offline.

      Aktualisiere gerade noch die Xbox hier bei der Freundin und könnte dann 1h. Habe hier aber leider kein headset und müssten dann über skype/ ipad quatschen.

    • Man darf das Driften nicht mit einem Ridge Racer Driften vergleichen, wo man einmal denDrift eingeleitet gut durch die Kurve kommt.
      Eher wie bei den Need for Speed Games, man muss im Drift immer noch die Kurve mitlenken und mit dem Analogen Gas Triggern dosiert Gas geben.
      Weshalb ich auch noch am Überlegen bin das Spiel überhaubt für die Switch noch mal zu Kaufen, da es dort ja keine analogen Tasten zum dosiert Gasgeben gibt.

      Und immer Windschatten Fahren nicht vergessen, das beschleunigt doch ordentlich.
      Da kann man sich auch die Turbos für Fahrfehler aufheben, um eben wieder auf die Gegner aufzuschließen und dann kurz vorm Ziel die restlichen Reinhauen um erster zu werden.

    • Expert ist dann wohl was wenn man das Spiel perfekt beherscht.

      Bisher hab ich noch nirgends Expert angefangen, der zweite Schwierigkeitsgrad ist mir noch genug.

      Weiß man eigentlich schon was ob es einen Spiegelmode gibt wenn man alles auf Gold hat?
      Kommt ja bei Arcade Racern gerne mal vor.

    • Ich habe gerade Mal weiter gespielt und den ersten Cup neben Normal jetzt auch auf Hard und Expert abgeschlossen.
      Lief überraschend gut. Jedes Rennen mit dem ersten Versuch gewonnen. :)

      Habt ihr schon einen Favoriten bei den Fahrern und dazugehörigen Wagen?

      Edit: Gerade auch das erste online Race beendet. Direkt gewonnen... :D
      Läuft aber leider noch etwas laggy.
