'Trailblazers' (ALL) Gets Retail Edition, Switch in September With Extra Content - Screens

by Rainier on July 6, 2018 @ 5:25 a.m. PDT

Trailblazers is a co-operative racing title with an innovative on-track game mechanic: paint the track, boost on your color, and work as a team to win!

Racing in teams of up to three-versus-three, players paint the track as they race, capturing key areas to dynamically change the racing line, then boosting on their team’s color. Racers who drive with flair and style will also amass skill points to blaze their way to victory! Players can experience the blistering high-speed action with up to six players online, or locally via split-screen for up to four local players with additional online or CPU-controlled challengers.

Loaded with multiplayer thrills and a series of single-player challenges across an extended campaign mode, Trailblazers is an audio-visual onslaught of retro-futuristic style and attitude. The game takes place in a lavishly designed world from the creative mind of BAFTA award-winning artist Will Milton. Players race through expansive and stunning scenic tracks set across locations ranging from mountain tops to lush forests and arid desert valleys. Aural soundscapes are provided via the officially licensed soundtrack featuring leaders of the Future Funk genre, including Get On Up by Skope, Bad King Kong by The Derevolutions, and Dead Ringer by A.Skillz.


Rising Star Games announced that Trailblazers will be made available for PS4 and Nintendo Switch at physical retail in September. Previously scheduled for June 2018, Trailblazers will on the same date also be made available digitally for Nintendo Switch.

To celebrate, both the boxed and digital versions of Trailblazers on Nintendo Switch will pack in extra content, including brand new racer ‘Boo’s Dad’ as well as increased single-player content available straight out of the gate.

In Trailblazers, players will race as, and alongside, a diverse cast of characters. Each driver plays a vital role in the racing community and unfolding story of the Trailblazers world, and each has a unique role and driving behavior. Players can also choose from a showroom of the fastest race cars in the galaxy, each with customized stats to fit every play style and track type.
