UK based indie developer VooFoo Studios is thrilled to today announce that its first self-published game, Mantis Burn Racing, will launch across PlayStation 4, Xbox One and Steam (for Windows PC), on Wednesday 12th October 2016.
“The response to the game at recent Gamescom and EGX expos has been nothing short of phenomenal,” says Marketing & PR Manager at VooFoo Studios, Sean Walsh. “We’ve been blown away by the feedback from everyone who’s played the game. We’re thrilled that, in just a few days’ time, players will be able to get their hands on the final game.”
While the game itself doesn’t seem to include a bunch of Mantis racing down a track as they burn alive, I suppose what the team is giving us looks pretty cool. I’m a big fan of this top-down racers and their arcade sensibilities. Here’s to hoping the team crafted something fun, even if they left out the burning bugs.
Shortlisted as a finalist for ‘Racing Game’ in the TIGA Games Industry Awards 2016, Mantis Burn Racing comes packed with four-player local Split-screen racing and 9 different event types that are all playable in both the 20-hour single-player campaign and in eight-player online competitive races and is the PlayStation 4 Pro’s first native 4K title running at 60fps for crystal-clear high definition racing.
