Description
MotorStorm Arctic Edge sees the music, the festival and the brutal off-road racing arrive in the breathtaking yet lethal and unpredictable setting of Alaska. With temperatures plummeting, sudden avalanches, broken ice bridges, and three different racing altitudes, this is possibly the most inhospitable environment the MotorStormers have ever had to deal with. With grip at a premium, and in addition to the six existing classes from the original MotorStorm, two new vehicles have been introduced to combat the ice, the cold and the snow - the Snowcat and the Snow Machine. One has the power and size to blast through packed snow, whilst the other has the grip and pace to combat most of what the sub-zero conditions can throw at it.
A further new introduction to the MotorStorm festival is personalisation of your vehicle class. Each vehicle in the game has a selection of different parts - for example wheels, exhausts, spoilers - liveries and stickers to choose from. Players can also create their own liveries from a set of base patterns and decals. There are so many combinations that each player could own a unique vehicle!
Special Features
Stunning Alaskan Environments -- Tracks are modeled after the rugged Alaskan landscape featuring a unique blend of narrow mountain passes, giant ice caves, long ice bridges, and treacherous terrain. Players must battle through each race facing a number of weather conditions including snow, rain, and wind.
New Vehicles -- Two new vehicles are available specifically to tackle the Alaskan terrain including the nimble Snow Cat and more forceful Snow Plow.
New Tracks -- 12 available tracks that show off the unpredictable nature of the rough Alaskan setting. Each of the tracks will be accessible to race in reverse for added race variety.
Split-Screen Racing -- MotorStorm Arctic Edge on PS2 offers players the opportunity to challenge friends offline with two-player split-screen racing.
Bobsleigh corners -- Vehicles power, slip, and spin through a variety of icy structures with only boost to provide control.
Avalanches -- Snow-baked terrain brings the imminent hazard of avalanches, triggered by players sounding their horn.
Collapsing Ice Bridges -- Travel over these in a heavy vehicle and risk the chance of it collapsing behind you.
Customize Vehicles -- Players can personalize each vehicle in the livery by updating with a selection of various parts including wheels, exhaust, spoilers, and sponsorship stickers. Players can also create their own liveries from a set of base patterns and decals.
Cutting-Edge Artificial Intelligence -- A.I. analyzes the race and surroundings and reacts in the most realistic manner possible. Not only will the competition try to win the race at all costs, but the A.I. will react to situations realistically, such as locating the best routes and changing the level of driving aggression based on player actions.
Attacking and Offensive Driving -- Players must not only try to win the race but survive against the other racers. Combat-like racing takes center stage as the vehicles are the weapons.
