  • BARREL ROLLS, BOOST, AND BRAVADO — LOW SPACE RACE BLASTS BACK WITH MASSIVE ‘OUT OF THE VOID’ UPDATE

    BARREL ROLLS, BOOST, AND BRAVADO — LOW SPACE RACE BLASTS BACK WITH MASSIVE ‘OUT OF THE VOID’ UPDATE

    No power-ups. No random loot. No lucky pickups to save you when you’re outgunned. Just pure, unfiltered speed — and the split-second choice that wins or loses the race.

    Developer collective Super Game Builder has today dropped Out of the Void, the landmark free update for their acclaimed anti-gravity racer Low Space Race, overhauling tracks, machines, and competition while keeping the one rule that matters: skill is the only thing that counts.

    ENERGY IS EVERYTHING — THE HEART OF THE RACE

    Low Space Race doesn’t play like other anti-gravity racers. Your energy is your boost and your shield — push too hard and you’ll go fast, but one hit from a rival and you’re gone.

    • Drafting — tuck behind another racer to recharge your energy
    • Barrel-roll attack — spin into a rival and deal five times normal damage
    • Slide mechanics — drift without losing momentum, rotate freely, snap direction instantly
    • Steal energy — wreck someone and their reserves become yours

    It’s a high-stakes dance: conserve to survive, or burn bright to lead. Every race is a balancing act between aggression and survival — and there are no shortcuts.

    OUT OF THE VOID — EVERY TRACK REBUILT, EVERY MACHINE REFRESHED

    This isn’t a handful of tweaks — it’s a complete reimagining of the game. The update delivers:

    • All 12 tracks fully rebuilt from the ground up — tighter corners, smarter layouts, zones designed for maximum chaos
    • All 16 racing machines redesigned and rebalanced — every craft now has a clearer identity, strengths, and playstyle
    • X Cup — an all-new championship featuring 4 procedurally generated tracks, so no two championships ever feel the same
    • Ironman Mode — permadeath racing; crash once and your run is over
    • Last-Man-Standing — the ultimate test of endurance; racers drop out until only one remains
    • Global leaderboards wiped clean — a fresh start for every pilot to claim their place
    • Online multiplayer — now fully supported alongside 1–4 player local split-screen and Steam Remote Play Together

    NO TEXTURES, NO MODELS — PURE PROCEDURAL SPEED

    Low Space Race is something genuinely rare: everything you see is generated entirely by code. No pre-made 3D models, no texture files, no hand-drawn UI — tracks, ships, environments, and even audio are built on the fly. The result is a game that weighs barely megabytes, runs on modest hardware, and looks unlike anything else on the track.

    The developers have also championed the game as a symbol of digital ownership — the offline version fits on a single 3.5-inch floppy disk, a deliberate statement about preserving games in an era of always-online dependence. Use the hashtag #bringfloppydisksback and join the conversation.

    100% POSITIVE — AND HALF PRICE

    Released 25 September 2026, Low Space Race has earned a perfect 100% positive rating on Steam from early players. Right now, it’s 50% off — discounted to just $4.77 — with the promotion running through 22 November.

    It supports Windows, macOS, and Linux, full controller support, and 13 languages — and a free demo is available so you can test the speed before you commit.

    THE VOID IS CALLING — STRAP IN

    “Low Space Race is a return to when racing was about reflexes, not luck,” said Yuri Pourre of Super Game Builder. “Here, the best pilot wins — no exceptions.”

    The tracks are rebuilt. The leaderboards are blank. The competition is online.

    Burn bright. Stay sharp. Be the first across the line.

  • HOVERBIKES, HIT-AND-RUN, AND HIGH-OCTANE CHAOS — AIRFRAME ULTRA LAUNCHES TODAY FROM THE CREATORS OF RAIN WORLD

    HOVERBIKES, HIT-AND-RUN, AND HIGH-OCTANE CHAOS — AIRFRAME ULTRA LAUNCHES TODAY FROM THE CREATORS OF RAIN WORLD

    They made the quiet, haunting survival masterpiece Rain World — now VIDEOCULT, alongside publisher Akupara Games, has unleashed something entirely different. Airframe Ultra is available right now on PC via Steam and GOG, bringing neon-soaked, high-speed hoverbike combat racing to players everywhere.

    From Silence to Speed

    VIDEOCULT built their reputation on Rain World — a meditative, atmospheric survival adventure celebrated for its deep ecosystems and deliberate, thoughtful pacing. After years crafting a world of quiet peril, the team has pivoted 180 degrees: Airframe Ultra is pure, unapologetic adrenaline — a throwback to the ferocious, unpolished fun of classic combat racers like Jet Moto and Twisted Metal, reimagined for today.

    “We spent basically 12 years making a mopey pixel platformer,” VIDEOCULT’s team said of their shift in direction. “This time we want to do the opposite — stupid fun”. The result is a game stripped of complexity but brimming with chaos: no convoluted progression systems, no endless stats to grind — just bikes, bats, and blazing tracks.

    Race, Crash, Fight, Repeat

    Set in the rain-slicked, neon-drenched streets of Megacity West, Airframe Ultra drops players into an underground racing circuit where gutterborn pilots fight not for championship points, but for infamy. Here’s what you can expect:

    • Blazing-fast hoverbike racing — skim above the asphalt, drift through tight corners, and leave smoke and sparks in your wake.
    • Combat is half the game — swing baseball bats, toss explosives, pour gasoline on the track and light it ablaze. Get knocked off your bike? Keep fighting on foot — and if you’re quick, steal your opponent’s ride right out from under them.
    • Play your way — jump into online multiplayer or huddle up on the couch with split-screen support for up to four players. The devs added local play late in development, not just for nostalgia, but to recapture that electric energy of shouting alongside friends as you crash and burn.
    • No philosophy, no pretension — just explosions, close calls, and pure, unfiltered fun.

    Available Now — Jump In Today

    Airframe Ultra is live immediately on Steam and GOG for PC. Whether you’re teaming up with friends or diving solo into the fray, Megacity West is waiting — and the race never slows down.

    For more details, wishlist links, and future updates, head to the official Akupara Games store pages or follow the studio on social media.

  • Drift, Dream, Design — Reality Drift Welcomes Katamari Creator Keita Takahashi!

    Drift, Dream, Design — Reality Drift Welcomes Katamari Creator Keita Takahashi!

    Buckle up for something truly extraordinary — and delightfully strange! Independent studio Arganoid Industries is thrilled to announce that their surreal 2.5D roguelike racer Reality Drift will feature exclusive guest artwork from legendary designer Keita Takahashi — the creative mind behind Katamari Damacy, Wattam, and to a T.

    Where the Road Makes No Sense — And That’s the Point

    Reality Drift isn’t your average race. It’s a strategic roguelike journey through ever-more-bizarre worlds, where your driving skill matters just as much as the upgrades, cards, and paths you choose between runs. Deliver packages to eccentric, god-like beings, customise your ride, and carve your own route through the unknown.

    Now, things are getting even weirder — and wonderfully so — thanks to Takahashi’s signature touch:

    • A Track Inside You — His centrepiece contribution: a fully realised racetrack where you drive through the human body itself
    • Delightfully Odd Sprites — Giant sheep, towering pigeons, grinning skulls, bats, and a landscape where colossal legs rise straight from the ground
    • Pure Unmistakable Charm — The visionary behind Katamari brings his whimsical, joyful, utterly unique style to the game’s most memorable corners

    A Match Made in Surreal Heaven

    For lead developer Andrew Gillett — a veteran of titles including LostWinds and Elite Dangerous — this is a dream collaboration: “As someone who has loved Katamari Damacy ever since its release in 2004, it’s really exciting to be working with the man behind it. I always try to make games which are a bit unhinged, so when I was looking for an artist to supplement the visuals in Reality Drift, Keita was the perfect fit.”

    Steam Next Fest & Launch Details

    • Steam Next Fest — Play the demo during the October showcase
    • Full Release — November 11, 2026, on Steam for Windows, macOS, and Linux
    • Wishlist Now — Head to the Steam store page to follow the game and be notified at launch

    Expect the unexpected. Race through the impossible.

    Reality Drift — Keita Takahashi is along for the ride.

  • Milestone launches free demo for Screamer, the arcade racing game

    Milestone launches free demo for Screamer, the arcade racing game

    If you miss the days of high-octane, loud, and unapologetic arcade racers, Milestone has some fantastic news for you. The Italian developer—mostly known for their simulation heavy-hitters like Ride and MotoGP—has officially released a free playable demo for Screamer, its neon-soaked, anime-infused combat racing game.

    Whether you play on console or PC, you can jump into the cockpit right now. The demo is available across PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC (via both Steam and the Epic Games Store).

    What is Screamer?

    For the veteran gamers out there, the name might ring a bell. Screamer is a radical modern reboot of the classic 1995 MS-DOS arcade racer. However, Milestone has ditched traditional retro styling in favour of a gorgeous, futuristic 1990s anime aesthetic (with cutscenes handled by the legendary Polygon Pictures) and mixed it with heavy vehicular combat.

    Set in the cyberpunk-esque city of Neo Rey, drivers compete in a brutal tournament where cars are fitted with something called the ECHO system. This mysterious tech turns racing into a literal fight, forcing players to juggle offensive and defensive mechanics while drifting around corners at breakneck speeds.

    What’s Included in the Free Demo?

    Milestone isn’t just giving us a simple time-trial. The free demo gives players a meaty taste of the early events of the main Tournament mode. Here is what you can expect:

    • Welcome to Neo Rey: Take your first laps through the bright, neon-lit streets of the Neo Rey tracks.
    • Single & Team Races: Experience both traditional solo placement matches and the chaos of Team Races, where protecting your allies and taking down rivals is just as important as crossing the finish line first.
    • The ECHO Combat System: Get hands-on with the game’s core mechanics. You’ll manage Sync to trigger your Boost and Shields, build up Entropy to unleash violent, combat-style Strikes, and max out your meters to trigger Overdrive—giving you temporary invincibility and instant-KO power on contact.
    • The Twin-Stick Handling: Test out Screamer’s unique handling model, which uses the left stick to steer and the right stick to drift, allowing for highly tactical, aggressive slides.

    Please Note: Only a select handful of characters, modes, and tracks are accessible in this trial version. Additionally, Milestone has confirmed that save data from the demo will not transfer over to the full game, so treat this purely as a proving ground to test your skills!

    Where to Download

    The Screamer demo is live right now. You can grab it directly from your platform’s respective digital storefront:

    • PlayStation 5: PlayStation Store
    • Xbox Series X|S: Xbox Games Store
    • PC: Steam / Epic Games Store

    If you’ve been looking for a game that plays like a glorious cross between WipEout, Blur, and a late-night Crunchyroll marathon, this is definitely one demo you shouldn’t pass up. Download it today and see if you have what it takes to survive the tournament!

    Have you taken the Screamer demo for a spin yet? Let us know your thoughts on the twin-stick drifting mechanics in the comments below!

  • Start Your Engines: Star Wars: Galactic Racer Hits the Track This October

    Start Your Engines: Star Wars: Galactic Racer Hits the Track This October

    It’s time to trade your lightsaber for a repulsor engine. Lucasfilm and Fuse Games have officially confirmed that Star Wars: Galactic Racer™ will launch worldwide on October 6th, 2026.

    The spiritual successor to the cult-classic Episode I: Racer is coming to PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC, and it’s promising to be much more than just a trip down memory lane. This is a high-stakes, “racing adventure” set in the lawless Outer Rim, where the fall of the Empire has left a vacuum filled by gambling, syndicates, and a desperate need for speed.


    More Than Just Podracing

    While the return of Podracing is the headline act, Galactic Racer expands the garage significantly. Players will master four distinct classes of vehicles:

    • Podracers: The high-speed, high-fragility icons of the Boonta Eve.
    • Speeder Bikes: Agile and perfect for tight, technical tracks.
    • Landspeeders: Heavy-duty machines built for shunting and durability.
    • Skim Speeders: Versatile crafts designed for varied terrain.

    The game introduces a new protagonist, Shade, in a story-driven campaign. You’ll navigate the underground Galactic League, working with your mechanic, Hibi, to upgrade your ride while dodging the influence of the underhanded Kestar Bool.

    Tactical Speed: The Ramjet System

    Forget simple “hold button to go fast” mechanics. Galactic Racer features a two-phase boost system. The second phase, known as the Ramjet, offers terrifying speeds but generates massive heat. Run it too long, and your vehicle will literally explode. You’ll need to use the environment—like the cooling waters of the tropical planet Lantaana—to manage your temperature if you want to stay in the race.


    Pre-Order Details & Bonuses

    Pre-orders are live now, and there are plenty of incentives to get on the starting grid early. All pre-orders include:

    • Exclusive Vehicle Livery: A platform-specific colour scheme (Blue for PS5, Green for Xbox, Red for PC).
    • Special Player Banner: For use in the 12-player online multiplayer modes.

    Edition Breakdown:

    EditionFeatures
    StandardBase Game + Pre-order bonuses.
    Deluxe3 Exclusive Repulsorcraft, Deluxe Livery Pack, 3 Unique Arcade Events, and a Digital Art Book.
    Collector’sAll Deluxe content + Physical Landspeeder Model, Steel Case, Pilot Patches, and a Physical Art Book.

    Iconic Tracks and New Worlds

    The circuit takes players across familiar sands and brand-new vistas. Expect to push your engines to the limit on:

    • Tatooine: The classic desert heat.
    • Ando Prime: The return of the fan-favourite ice circuits.
    • Lantaana: A lush, volcanic island planet where lava and water provide tactical heat management opportunities.
    • Jakku & Sentinel I: New challenges in the post-Empire era.

    “This is a game where there isn’t just one racing line,” says the development team. “There’s the one for your current situation, your vehicle build, and the environment.”

    Star Wars: Galactic Racer™ launches October 6th. Are you ready to risk it all for the trophy? Head over to the official stores on PS5, Xbox, or Steam to secure your spot in the League today.

  • Now This is Podracing: Everything We Learned from the Star Wars: Galactic Racer Gameplay Trailer

    Now This is Podracing: Everything We Learned from the Star Wars: Galactic Racer Gameplay Trailer

    The wait is finally over. After months of speculation following its reveal at The Game Awards 2025, Fuse Games just dropped the official gameplay trailer for Star Wars: Galactic Racer™ during the February 2026 State of Play.

    If you were worried this would be a “clean” corporate racer, think again. This is gritty, underground, and looks like it was built by people who genuinely miss the “move or die” intensity of Burnout and Episode I: Racer.


    The Setting: Chaos in the New Republic

    Forget the Jedi and the Sith. The game is set in the lawless Outer Rim during the New Republic era (shortly after the fall of the Empire). With the galaxy rebuilding, a power vacuum has opened, filled by The Galactic League—an unsanctioned, high-stakes racing circuit backed by shadowy syndicates.

    Key Gameplay Features

    • A “Runs-Based” Experience: This isn’t just a series of laps. Tracks feature branching routes and dynamic environments that change mid-race. You’ll need to make split-second risk-reward decisions.
    • The Fleet: You aren’t limited to one vehicle type. The trailer showcased:
      • Podracers (including the return of fan-favourites like Sebulba and Ben Quadinaros!)
      • Speeder Bikes
      • Landspeeders and Skim Speeders
    • Tactical Combat: Drawing from the developers’ Burnout roots, the game encourages shunting, slamming, and “brutal takedowns.”

    The Story: Revenge at 600 MPH

    You play as Shade, a lone-wolf pilot with a grudge against the current League champion, Kestar Bool.

    The campaign is immersive and choice-driven. You’ll work with your mechanic, Hibi, to customise your ride with parts and upgrades earned through a branching path of events. It’s not just about being the fastest; it’s about building a machine that can survive a league where “no rules” is the only rule.

    “No rules, no safety committees, and definitely no official medals—only those willing to punch, dodge, and face the risks will cross the finish line.” — Official Announcement


    Multiplayer and Modes

    For those who want to test their mettle against the galaxy, the game confirmed:

    • 12-Player Online PvP: Hard-fought races where reputation is everything.
    • Arcade Mode: Focused on precision driving and climbing the global leaderboards.
    • Scenarios Mode: Unique challenges and hardcore conditions that push your piloting skills to the limit.

    Initial Thoughts: Is It the Successor We Wanted?

    The visuals in Unreal Engine 5 are stunning, taking us from the familiar sands of Jakku to lush jungles and industrial cityscapes. While some fans on Reddit are debating the “grittier” art style, the sense of speed in the trailer is undeniable. It feels like a love letter to the N64/GameCube era of Star Wars games—experimental, fun, and a little bit dangerous.

    Star Wars: Galactic Racer is slated for release later in 2026 on PS5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC. You can officially wishlist it on Steam and the PlayStation Store now!
