Trailblazers coming to Switch

by rawmeatcowboy
21 February 2018
GN Version 5.0


Trailblazers is a fresh new co-operative racing title with an innovative on-track game mechanic: paint the track, boost on your colour and work as a team to win!

Take control of high-speed racers in unique 3v3 team races across a series of colourful circuits. Paint the track as you race, capturing key areas to dynamically change the racing line, then boost on your team's colour to dominate the race.

In Trailblazers, you don’t just take the racing line. You make it! Work with your teammates to paint the track surface, capturing the fastest straights and most technical corners for your team. Join your trails together over multiple laps to make a perfectly connected line around the track, and paint over your opponent’s colour to deny them the race.

Boosting

More paint means more boost! Driving on your colour gives you a speed boost! Strategically paint the track in key areas to give your team an advantage. Boosting for longer unlocks higher top speeds, rewarding racers who can chain long trails together with no gaps. Capture the track and drive with accuracy to win the race!

Teamwork

Work together with your teammates to capture the track! The best teams will share painting and boosting duties, picking complementary drivers to maximise their individual skill-sets. But don’t forget about the opposing team! Paint over their trails to deny them boost, or save up your paint for aggressive attacks which shock the opposition and disrupt their strategy.

Every race is different; the racing line constantly evolves as you play Strategise with your teammates to capture the best corners and fastest straights Chain long trails together to maximise your boost Continuously drive on your colour to level-up your boost and unlock higher top speeds Paint over your opponent’s trails to capture their track and deny the opposing team their boost Some drivers are paint-focused, whilst others are boost-focused. Strategise with your teammates to pick complementary stats!
