The great outdoors can be quite harsh to anything on four wheels. Offroad racing challenges experienced drivers to make their across rough terrain with the types of buggies and quads that can handle the pressure. Zordix Racing’s Overpass is the ultimate test of endurance and skill – you’ll need to have everything it takes to accelerate your ride across several dirt-filled tracks. The game’s finely tuned physics engine looks to do an awesome job of replicating the real-life feel of driving atop a withered bridge and against craggy slopes. This unique take on racers is specially made for those looking to challenge themselves and overcome Mother Nature’s toughest racecourses.
Developer: Original Fire Games
Publisher: Square Enix Collective
Platforms: PS4, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, PC
Release Date: TBA
Square Enix Collective is a new arm within the legendary video game publisher/development company that goes out of its way to bring indie games to a wider audience. This welcome initiative is working closely with the development studio Original Fire Games, which is surprisingly comprised of just six talented individuals. The studio’s passion project is Circuit Superstars, a top-down racer that combines the best elements of arcade-style racing and more simulation-like driving physics. The visuals may be too simple for some, but Circuit Superstars’ well-tuned gameplay and quality tracks should be enough to get racing game fans to give it a look.

TT Isle of Man 2
Developer: Kylotonn
Publisher: Bigben Interactive
Platforms: PS4, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, PC
Release Date: TBA
The Isle of Man TT race is known worldwide as one of the most challenging sporting events. 2018’s TT Isle of Man: Ride on the Edge managed to replicate the nail-biting motorsport thrills of that racing challenge with great success. Now developer Kylotonn is back with a retooled sequel that will hopefully build upon the solid foundation set by its predecessor. TT Isle of Man 2’s visuals look even better than before, plus it’s improving its driving mechanics thanks to more precise steering, newly added speed wobbles, and redesigned brakes/shock absorbers. This motorsport experience should push the TT Isle of Man racing game franchise to a higher level than ever before.
