HIGHLIGHTS
- New tournament: Carmageddon
- New free Carmageddon tracks
- New Eagle-R reward car
We're excited to announce a new tournament, and it's a very special treat!
If there's one game that perfectly blended racing and destruction, not to mention a wicked sense of dark humour, that's the original Carmageddon and its numerous successors. When we got a surprise chance to inject some of the Carmageddon vibes in our game we didn't need to think twice about it - Carmageddon inside Wreckfest is like a marriage made in heaven! So there you have it: the new update adds two iconic environments "Bleak City" and "Devil's Canyon" from the original Carmageddon, the infamous Eagle-R car and a healthy number of zombies to run over, all wrapped in the pixelated glory of the early 90s, perfect to release your inner Max Damage.
Let's start smashing some zombies!
Additionally, this release also contains a few additional improvements but we invite you to check out the release notes below for a complete summary of items fixed or improved upon. Unfortunately, the title also suffers from a few issues at the moment which we are going to address, and a list of those can be found below as well.
