Last August I came before you to announce, gleefully, that Wreckfest 2 was on the way. Now I say to you that Wreckfest 2 is here. In early access, at least, you can take developer Bugbear's sequel to the beloved car-smashing destruction derby/battle race game for a spin.
Above all, though, I have to say that I love the approach to an early access launch trailer that Wreckfest 2 has taken. They take a real proper, honest approach: This is a game that's not done. It's going to break and crash. Also, it's a game about literal crashes, and that's just comedy gold, folks. It's especially effective when they show off the greybox-style sandbox area.
The trailer also highlights the biggest feature of Wreckfest 2: Its impressive new physics and destruction features. Cars in Wreckfest 2 take almost shockingly-specific damage as bits and pieces fall off, frames and panels bend, tires collapse, wheel rims spit sparks against the road, and more. More like, specifically, the physics of car suspension and drivers getting thrown wildly around.
Bugbear says that the first update for Wreckfest 2 will come in May and include two new tracks and two new cars. The final release, when that comes in the future, will have a "big variety of game modes, tracks and cars" alongside career mode, multiplayer modes, full car customization including performance and deeper cosmetics, support for tournament play, and modding support.
