Set in the future during a period of political unrest, a series of bloody conflicts have brought the world’s economy to the brink of collapse. This has resulted in mass global poverty, where the survivors strive to survive with only one motivation… illegal Stateshift racing! Danger is never far away, with a full arsenal of devastating weaponry, armed and ready to unleash at the touch of a button. Collect homing missiles, mines, rocket launchers to gain the edge in a race to the finish line, where only the fastest and deadliest pilots will survive.

Special abilities

State morphing is an energy based power up system with which the player can – in real-time – change the handling of his car. By using the various State morph abilities, the player can get better average speed, supreme cornering, ram other players to oblivion, evade weapons fire, drive through obstacles, and by combining all of these: reign the competition.

• Fourteen different race tracks

• Six different playable characters

• Four different Statemorph abilities

• Four different weapon pickups
