Wreckfest 2 Launches on Steam Early Access March 20

by

THQ Nordic announces a fresh trailer and launch date for Wreckfest 2, the follow-up to the amusing automobile demolition game. The upcoming installment of Wreckfest is set to debut on March 20, exclusively as an early access on PC platforms. At this time, there’s no word regarding its release on consoles.

One significant upgrade made by Bugbear Studio that stands out is the engine’s optimization, which significantly enhances both the game’s graphics and the way physical interactions occur within it.

As a dedicated fan, I can’t help but feel thrilled about the team’s emphasis on enhancing the collision system – a key component of the game. Their objective is clear: to create an environment where players and developers collaborate closely, with the studio eagerly incorporating player feedback to refine the game during its early access phase.

In their latest video, we catch a sneak peek at some exciting new arenas and vehicles that will be part of the upcoming release. It’s a testament to the studio’s commitment to delivering an exceptional gaming experience.

Main features of Wreckfest 2:

Unmatched racing experience

Get ready for the absolute thrill of unrestricted, full-throttle racing packed with breathtaking chaos and devastation, all fueled by an advanced physics engine! Engage in intense, one-on-one battles on tracks that offer high-speed circuits, zany courses filled with obstacles and jumps, intersections, and oncoming traffic. Alternatively, take control in derby mode for a heart-pounding experience of destruction!

More and more tracks & arenas will be added during the Early Access phase.

Awesome & customizable cars

Skip the shiny luxury cars: Our vehicles are vintage, battered, and pieced together. Each one has a tale to tell, and you can pen your own by personalizing your vehicle. Throughout our early access phase, we’ll be adding an increasing number of customization options to the game. Not only will they unleash your creativity, but they’ll also introduce new armor and component types that cater to specific playstyles. As we progress in Early Access, you’ll even have the chance to share your designs with other racers and wreckers!

Fully revamped game modes

Kicking off our early release, featuring the initial game modes: Racing, Derby, and multiplayer. During this Early Access period, we’re excited to introduce an entirely overhauled career mode that tailors to your unique playing style and helps shape your path towards true mastery! For enthusiasts competing online, expect a sophisticated matchmaking system based on skills and dynamic server queues in the near future!

Challenges

As an enthusiast, I’m thrilled about another exciting aspect during the Early Access phase: unique challenges that’ll have me at the helm of unusual vehicles, ones that probably shouldn’t be seen on a race track! These engaging, bite-sized scenarios will keep me hooked as I compete for top scores in an exhilarating race against time and unconventionality.

Tournaments

During the Early Access period, players can anticipate participating in tournaments as well. These events offer exclusive rewards and challenge not only your driving abilities but also other aspects of gameplay!

Mod Support

In the Early Access period, we’ll incorporate mod support, enabling you to customize your gaming experience by installing a variety of mods directly from Steam Workshop.
