The critically claimed anti-gravity racing title, Redout is making an appearance on both PS4 and Xbox One later this year, as Redout: Lightspeed Edition. This console version of the gravity defying title will feature additions such as split screen, all the DLCs and a unique, format-exclusive livery (blue/black).
Here is the official description by 505 Games:
“Redout is a tribute to the classic racing monsters. It is designed to be an uncompromising, fast, tough and satisfying driving experience, soaked in that vertigo that stands at the core of the arcade racing genre. The floating system and driving models are based on physics: Every slope, hard-brake, acceleration, and each turn and twist of the track will apply a unique force to the ship. A sharp low-polygon style blends meshes and terrains with the latest state-of-the-art shading and lighting effects provided by the Unreal Engine 4, creating beautiful and instantly recognizable aesthetics. The melancholic, dystopian atmosphere of a semi-abandoned Earth is the background for the most high-speed, tense and beautiful futuristic racing clashes, across breezy coastlines, eerie frozen landscapes and vast desert plains.
