These tracks are wild both in terms of their themes and their obstacles. The one thing a Trials Rising sequel needs to work is fun new courses, and RedLynx has nailed this. It’s a great change of pace that keeps everything feeling fresh. But every life is precious in the challenge races, so instead of trying to do everything perfect, you are better off playing conservatively. In most races, I restart dozens of times trying to execute perfectly on the most efficient route.
This is a brilliant addition to Trials because it encourages an entirely different style of play. Unlike in standard courses, if you lose the race or try to restart it, you lose a life. These are events that pop up on the map every couple of hours that give you three lives to see if you can get three wins. My favorite new addition, however, is the challenge race. And you’ll compete in skill-game challenges that have you trying to bailout, grab a basketball in midair, and complete a monster dunk. Sure, you have online multiplayer, and the single-player campaign has traditional time-trial races where you play against computer-controlled ghosts.īut then you will also unlock the Moto-X levels where you see other non-ghost racers in the level with you. And it has more variety than everĪnother way that the developer has improved Trials is by giving you a much wider variety of challenges. He talks to players as another player and not as a developer trying to explain how their game works. And I think one of the reasons it’s so effective is because Professor FatShady does feel external to RedLynx (although, I don’t know if he is a Ubisoft employee). So if you are having trouble with a particular jump, you can tap the right bumper, and he will give you context-relevant tips. He actually will give you on-demand instructions during the training challenges. This whole thing works because the Professor doesn’t just explain the tech. This is really just bringing in FatShady’s YouTube channel into the game, but I have never felt more confident in my Trials skills.

This system is a series of instructional videos and then challenges related to the tech you learn in those clips. But Ubisoft brought in self-described “Trials educator” Professor FatShady to host the University of Trials.

I’ve played hundreds of hours of Trials games, but I still don’t know how to reliably do some of the more high-level techniques. That includes the onboarding system, which features the most detailed tutorial system in the history of the series. Maybe it’s impossible for RedLynx to improve the core pillar of Trials gameplay, but it has improved everything else. But you’ll learn how to play it better than ever But I’m trying to think of a word to describe a set of mechanics that I don’t think anyone on Earth could improve, and … yeah. I’m avoiding the word “perfect.” No game is perfect. But if it did, it maintained the way Trials is “supposed” to feel.Īnd it’s important that RedLynx hasn’t changed how Trials works. If RedLynx has changed anything in the way the game controls or feels, I didn’t notice. Put another way, Rising plays a lot like 2009’s Trials HD (which wasn’t the first in the series, but was the defining early release).
