Today Team6 announced that they will develop a brand new version of the well known franchise “FlatOut”! Little is known from this promising title, but these will be the four game modes available:
– “Racing”: The standard FlatOut concept: Race, destroy and either finish first, or make sure you’re the last one standing (or: driving). Violent, agressive racing will take place in various locations and themes, such as the financial district, the industrial port and a dusty and an old but atmospheric town somewhere in southern-europe. Gamemode also available in splitscreen mode.
– “Trash” : An addictive, violent, Wii-targeted game mode for what’s the whole Flatout franchise about: Breaking stuff!
Use a weapon of choice (baseball bat, crowbar, lead pipe, amongst others) to totally trash the car of your opponent. Once trashed, he doesn’t want this car anymore and it’s all yours! New vehicle unlocked!
