Trials HD is a full-scale, physics-based motorcycle racing game. The game features over 50 mind-boggling tracks (levels) in two unique game modes: Race and Skill. Race-mode emphasizes balance, skill and control as the player tries to tackle indoor obstacle tracks with minimum faults, as fast as possible. Skill-mode extends the riding into breath-taking, extreme stunt tracks, in which explosions, crashes, and injuries cannot be avoided. Skill-games also introduce a completely new type of in-game friend scores, unseen in any other Xbox LIVE Arcade game so far.

The physics model of RedLynx’s Trials-game is taken even further, allowing the tracks to vary hugely from extreme stunt tracks to skill-based race tracks and physics puzzles. The game also has stunning full 3D HD graphics, rider customization, unlockable bikes, global rankings, and many other Trials HD specific features. While playing the game, players also get to enjoy the perplexing, hilarious, and absolutely fearless voice-overs from truly bone-breaking Trials HD riders: Brandon DiCamillo, Art Webb and Rake Yohn!

"Only a handful of downloadable console games have reached this plateau," said Tero Virtala, CEO of RedLynx. "For a company of about thirty-five people, it's a significant achievement, and it validates our strategy of focusing on online and downloadable games that have the potential to evolve into long-term, successful game franchises."

This one million sales mark represents sales of the Trials HD game through Xbox Live. It does not include sales of the first expansion pack, Trials HD - Big Pack, whilew the second expansion Trials HDL: Big Thrills, will contain some 40 new tracks, including 10 tracks created by the game's most dedicated fans, those who competed in the recent Track Creator Challenge.

"Congratulations to RedLynx for creating such a beloved, fun game that powerfully showcases the Arcade experience," said Scott Austin, Director of Digitally Distributed Games at Microsoft. "We look forward to bringing more Trials HD content to the Xbox LIVE community with the upcoming release of Big Thrills."

"This is a satisfying milestone," said Antti Ilvessuo, Creative Director and co-founder of RedLynx, as well as the lead designer on Trials HD. "But it's just the beginning. With the Big Thrills DLC, we are including ten of the very best user-created tracks right alongside our own."

He sighed, and donned a long judge's robe and powdered wig, then picked up a gavel. "Thousands of tracks were entered into the competition," he said. "For the next few weeks, I shall be a very busy, track-judging man."
