New Cali, USA (brought to you by the Bachman Media Network) – November 7, 2066: The dust has settled after a frenetic opening series for the ultra-fast, ultra-violent racer, DEATHSPRINT 66 – and the Bachman Media Network has been working tirelessly in the background to up the stakes with multiple rounds of major updates; from new unlocks for the most dedicated players to new tracks, traps, events and more.
The excitement begins with Update 1 on November 11, which introduces an Offline Mode, brings five virtual ‘AR’ tracks from the game’s single-player ‘Episodes’ to the core PVP course rotation, and implements a number of improvements and bug fixes.
All of the new updates and additions have been requested or inspired by the dedicated (and bloodthirsty) DEATHSPRINT 66 community, and everyone at the Bachman Media Network, Secret Mode and Sumo Newcastle are excited to see the reactions from fans over the coming weeks and months.
In the meantime, if you need a refresher on what DEATHSPRINT 66 is all about, make sure you’re clued up on the particulars of our beloved bloodsport by fixing your optical orbits on our edutaining Behind the Speed video series, in which the twisted minds at Sumo Newcastle run you through the inspirations and making of DEATHSPRINT 66. And once you’re done, be sure to head over to the DEATHSPRINT 66 Discord to link up with your fellow racers. We’ll see you on the track!
