Hailed to take car destruction and track construction to whole new levels, Ridge Racer Unbounded has been released for the PS3 and Xbox 360 in North America. This game is the latest installment in the much popular Ridge Racer series, following Ridge Racer for PS Vita which was outed earlier this month.
The title will have players indulging in high speed destruction in order to please Kara Shindo, who’s the leader of the Unbounded gang. Doing so will increase their street cred in Shatter Bay. This game is said to contain the series’ signature arcade handling and drifting elements. A new car selection also makes its way into the offering, even allowing players to get behind the wheels of vintage muscle cars, as they drive through alleys and street corner of Shatter Bay.
Carlson Choi, Vice President of Marketing, Namco Bandai Games America, commented, “We are excited to have racing fans unleash their destructive prowess against friends and foes online in Ridge Racer Unbounded. With a greater focus on demolition and high octane destruction, Ridge Racer Unbounded takes the franchise to new heights in racing mayhem.”
The City Creator feature that’s on offer through the title allows players to design their own urban tracks using the in-game tools. Moreover, these creations will be sharable online, which means that gamers around the world would be able to compete against each other to dominate the races on others’ tracks.
Ridge Racer Unbounded is now available for the PS3 and Xbox 360 in North America at a price of 59.99 USD (approx. Rs. 3,045). It will be released in Europe on March 30.
