Out now on Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series XS and PC. A post-apocalyptic mix of action RPG, rock n’ racing and dungeon crawling, perfect for fans of Mad Max and The Legend of Zelda.
DANGEN Entertainment and developer Rastrolabs have announced that RoadOut has now released on Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC.
RoadOut is a story-driven post-apocalyptic action-RPG that fuses 2.5D rotatable dungeon crawling with retro-style car exploration and vehicular combat.
Players step into the role of Claire, a mercenary for hire who races, fights, hacks, and crashes her way through the ruins of The Dead Zone. In her quest to uncover her connection to A.I., she’ll uncover conspiracies, clash with gangs, track down relics, and personalize her ride (and body) for maximum style and destruction.
A final, action-packed trailer has been revealed alongside its launch. The trailer highlights RoadOut’s mix of twin stick action, on-wheels exploration and rock n’ roll style racing (yes, like the SNES game).
Players should look forward to puzzle-filled dungeons, overworld exploration on wheels, arcade style racing, upgrades and mods, all wrapped in a retro post-apocalyptic world seething with style and synthwave.
STORY
After a great cataclysm, what’s left is a post-apocalyptic world dominated by an A.I. with rebel groups that take refuge in a desert area known as The Dead Zone.
Claire survives in this world by executing black market contracts for local leaders involving delivery, sabotage and murder. The Dead Zone, now not so dead, is occupied by three rival factions: The Wasteheads, The SaibaKuran, and Order of the New Code.
While investigating her past, Claire uncovers strange evidence that links her existence to the origin of the A.I.
GAMEPLAY
Part exploration on-wheels, part dungeon crawler, RoadOut shifts between retro-style behind-the-wheel action and on-foot brawling. Switch from turbo-charged chases to twin-stick shootouts. Drive into run-down city hubs, take on underground side quests, and blow up dangerous hideouts. Players can upgrade both Claire and her ride with body mod and vehicular customization, while scouring the world for items to craft their own items, weapons and upgrades.
| Explore the World on Wheels The world is no longer the same. All that remains is The Dead Zone, a large artificial biome created to sustain a new era of humanity. Drive through The Dead Zone doing jobs, getting paid and running roughshod over the scum guarding the secrets of the world. Join factions, fight rival gangs, barter items and take up quests to earn clout while progressing Claire’s story. Twin Stick Combat and Dungeon Exploration Exit your ride and explore locations in the world of RoadOut on foot. Crush bandits with short and long range attacks, block with your shield, and recover using drugs that you’ve crafted on the way. Solve puzzles using fully rotatable stack sprite perspectives that look 2D, but are actually 3D. Body Mods and Cybernetics Craft new moves, weapons and drugs to survive. You can customize Claire with body mods, cybernetics and an intricate skill tree system. Upgrade her car to traverse different terrain and withstand the effects of weather, night and day. Battle in Your Bitchin’ Ride Equipped with weapons and other tech, Claire’s car is your best friend against dangers in The Dead Zone. Hungry animals are ready to rip you apart. Murderous bandits will rob your lifeless corpse. Prepare for the worst with your car and its arsenal of weapons. Race for Glory The world may have come to an end, but who said we can’t have fun? Ride or die in red-hot races to be the best on the post-apocalyptic circuit. 10 tracks in multiple biomes, innumerable races, all of them equal measures deadly and glorious. Indulge in extra game modes such as destruction derby-style racing and twisted battle arena, all while roading out to a thumping synthwave soundtrack. |
