Gravel Announced
March 2nd, in the year of our Lord 2017,
Milan – Milestone, one of the leading and longest established
racing game developer in the world, is proud to announce its new
IP dedicated to the 4-wheeled off-road world: GRAVEL. The game
will be available on PS4™ Pro, PS4™, Xbox One® and STEAM™ next
summer.
CONCEPT:
“Gravel is the most extreme off-road challenge. It celebrates
off-road racing by taking the player to exotic locations around
the world with some of the most exciting vehicles ever created.
Thanks to the Unreal Engine 4, Milestone could finally unleash
its creativity by tackling the arcade-genre with the most
ambitious off-road racing game ever created. Bearing in mind the
concepts of “fun”, “competition”, “speed” and “adrenaline”, we
had the chance to think big by putting into the same game the
best elements that we could create: photorealistic graphics,
dynamic time of day and weather system, accessible physics that
can be enjoyed by everybody, breath-taking locations where the
player can race at full speed rushing through forests, snowy
mountains, dunes and deserts. We love the way Gravel is shaping
up and we believe that the players will be amazed by how funny
and fresh this game will be", says Irvin Zonca Head of Game
Design Milestone.
DISCIPLINES:
There are four disciplines included in the new Milestone IP,
which promises to take the player into an adrenaline-fuelled
combination of petrol and dirt: Wild Rush, combative races in
wild locations; Cross Country, with open maps to explore or to
conquer until the last checkpoint; Speed Cross, real tracks and
races without holding anything back; Stadium Circuit, with
arenas and spectacular jumps. Offline modes will be in this game
as well.
THE TV SHOW:
The game will revolve around the GRAVEL CHANNEL, which presents
the OFFROAD MASTERS format, an annual television program that
will accompany the player on their way to fame and glory.
Through challenges and events which are dedicated to every one
of the in-game disciplines, the skilled driver must reach the
FINAL LEAGUE and challenge the champion from the previous
edition, attempting to be crowned as the new OFFROAD MASTER. The
route will be strewn with increasingly difficult challenges, but
also with discipline specialists, real MASTERS, who will put
even the most experienced players to the test.
