“We’ve been hard at work getting Riptide GP: Renegade ready for series fans and new players alike,” said Matt Small, Creative Director and Co-Founder of Vector Unit. “This version has been developed from the ground up for next-gen consoles. We kept what worked, but completely retuned the mechanics and the graphics engine, and we can’t wait for players to get their hands on the game.”

We found Vector Unit’s previous Xbox One title, Riptide GP2 to be rather decent so hope this one will continue in that vein. Before we find that out though, check out the announcement trailer below.
