Sony Computer Entertainment Europe is pleased to announce the forthcoming release ATV Offroad, an exhilarating and action-packed ATV (All-Terrain Vehicle) racing game.
Featuring white-knuckle action and speed, huge free-roaming and competitive racing environments, more than 20 different offroad racing tracks and a hard rock soundtrack, ATV Offroad harnesses the power of PlayStation 2, bringing the true spirit of ATV racing to life in the most realistic ATV simulation yet.
ATV Offroad provides gamers with a multitude of options to enhance their ATV racing experience, with 11 authentic ATV models, six different event types and three styles of bikes to choose from. Players can select their ATV from a variety of high-profile manufacturers. A Garage feature allows players to further customize their driving experience by tweaking options such as tire friction, shock reaction, steering and braking.
ATV Offroad also includes a great lineup of music from a variety of top hard rock artists, including Alice in Chains, Soundgarden and Anthrax, providing players with an emotionally-charged racing environment.
By using the multitap, ATV Offroad allows up to four players to compete against one another in a race experience like no other. Huge, free-roaming environments of up to two square miles in area encourage players to experience true offroad racing, navigating their way to the finish line over sandy deserts, rocky hillsides and deeply forested mountain trails. Players can choose from 11 different ATV models, taking into consideration factors such as traction, acceleration, top speed and stability, depending upon the landscape. Realistic physics force gamers to feel every bump, turn and crash in the terrain, and a track editor allows players to diversify the competition by creating their own unique racetrack within the existing environments.
