OUTBRK: Development Outlook (December 2024)

Happy holiday chasers! This month we released OUTBRK version 0.2 that contained the very anticipated passenger princess feature to allow players to ride in the same car, a new car: the Solstice, a lot of new car and character cosmetic options, and more !

RELEASE OF THE PASSENGER PRINCESS UPDATE

0.2 was our most successful release to date! Our testers did a fantastic job to help us release a very stable feature right from day 1 and we’re extremely happy to see how our community engaged with the feature. This was a colossal amount of work to get this feature ready but seeing all the crazy moments that emerged from players sitting in the same car is definitely worth it.


MORE CUSTOMIZATION

Part of the 0.2 update, we dramatically increased the amount of customization content in the game, with a brand new car, new wheels, new bullbars including rally lights, a new hail guard, a new bubblehead, new shirts, pants, shoes, and an accurate replica of the Tower probe from CONVEX.


We’ve been working on this mega pack of content for a while and it feels fantastic to finally see it everywhere in the OUTBRK world!
