Developed by the Ukraine-based studio Beatshapers, Ready to Run is a next-gen racing game developed exclusively for the PlayStation 4. Announced a few hours ago via a trailer released by the company, the game will take place in a uniquely shaped futuristic-retro universe as you will be able to take the controls and race your RC car to the finish line.
Resembling a tear-down clone of Mario Cart, the game doesn’t seem to offer as much, yet it is set to be a ‘true next-gen’ racing game. Beatshapers, responsible for Jetpack Joyride, BreakQuest and other various PS mini-games, officially stated that Ready to Run will be the first title in a PlayStation 4 exclusive franchise.
Hoping to bring back the arcade style of gaming back, the game will feature RC racing physics, real-time and synchronous multiplayer modes, and over 15 radio-controlled cars. Players will be able to compete for a place in various scoreboards with different filters, as Ready to Run will emphasis on the PSN friends network.
Players will be able to ride around various tracks in a single city environment that will feature ‘endless track configurations.’ Different race modes will also be included.
Ready to Run is planned to be released in the second quarter of 2014.
