SEGA Announces ‘SEGA RALLY REVO’ for
Next-Generation Systems
SEGA Redefines the Rally Racing Genre with
Revolutionary Track Deformation Technology
SEGA® of America, Inc. and SEGA® Europe Ltd.
today announced SEGA RALLY™ REVO. This genre-defining competitive racing game
will be the first title developed by the newly-formed SEGA Driving Studio, and
will be racing onto the PLAYSTATION®3 computer entertainment system, Xbox 360™,
and PC in 2007.
With revolutionary dynamically deformable
terrain, proprietary next-generation graphics, bone-jarringly realistic physics,
and competitive bumper-to-bumper racing, SEGA RALLY REVO will set a new
benchmark in its genre with a high-tempo driving experience that is every racing
fan’s driving fantasy.
"SEGA RALLY REVO shifts into high gear with
revolutionary track deformation technology, skill-demanding gameplay and
dazzling graphics on the next-gen systems," said Scott A. Steinberg, Vice
President of Marketing, SEGA of America, Inc. "We’re redefining the genre with
SEGA RALLY REVO, using next-gen power to guarantee our place in the winner’s
circle."
Vehicle selection affects driving strategy in
SEGA RALLY REVO, as race course surfaces dynamically deform upon repeated
contact with vehicle tires and changing weather effects. SEGA RALLY REVO
features a variety of fully deformable surfaces, from gravel-littered tracks and
smooth tarmac roads, to snow-covered mountain passes. This means no two laps
will ever be the same, and drivers can skillfully lower their lap times as they
hurtle their chosen world-renowned rally vehicles down photo-realistic courses
only made possible on next-generation hardware.
Driving skills will also be tested by SEGA RALLY
REVO’s advanced AI which allows NPC drivers to dynamically adapt their driving
style to the varied racing surfaces. Players can enjoy a comprehensive
single-player campaign as they travel the globe racing the best drivers in the
world. SEGA RALLY REVO also features online capabilities, with multiplayer
splitscreen modes offering an extremely competitive rally experience against
drivers around the world.
