Split Second Splits Details

The new upcoming racer by Disney Interactive and Black Rock Studios announces some details about the destructive racer.

Split/Second: Velocity is a game similar to burnout but with constantly destructive environments that will cause havoc for racers during the race with the use of power ups always changing the outcome of the race. We had a quick play at Europe Gamer 2009 and it was actually mind-blowing. The cars looked amazing and it definitely distinguished itself from other racers currently on the market. Split Second, sub named “Velocity” has been estimated a 10 ESRB rating.

If you like seeing things blowing up around you in the real world whilst your driving in your every day to day life then you will definitely love this.

Split second will be releasing on May 21st in the UK and North America.

ESRB “In this action-racing game, players compete in a fictional reality-TV show and race through environments pre-rigged with explosives. Players can set-off large fiery explosions that destroy buildings and structures, unlocking new paths and shortcuts. Players can also strategically detonate explosives to cause damage to other racers. Jets, construction vehicles, and buses can be found throughout the tracks, and they often explode or crash on top of the racers. Slow-motion effects sometimes highlight car wrecks during the competition. In a “survival” mode, players must avoid incoming missiles fired from a helicopter; players can use a “deflect meter” that sends missiles back at the helicopter.”
