Switchblade Closed Beta Announced

Lucid Games proudly announces the official PS4 Switchblade Closed Beta, a dynamic new vehicle action game for PlayStation 4, developed using the power of Unreal Engine 4.

Check out the announcement trailer of Switchblade, featuring a cinematic video:

“From a team that has worked on titles such as Project Gotham Racing, Blur and Geometry wars, Switchblade is an arena-based 5v5 vehicular shooter that combines high-octane combat with an ever-shifting array of strategic choices. Seamlessly switch between heavily armed vehicles at any time to create endless tactical choices. Chase down a rival in a speedy fighter, then swap to a heavy-duty battlewagon to attack your competitor’s tower as your teammates switch between healers & artillery to back you up.

Win battles, grab loot and create your own unique online superstar as you rise through the ranks of a spectacular e-sport championship.

“We wanted to push the concept of vehicle combat games further than anything out there.’ said Craig Howard, Creative Director at Lucid Games. ‘The idea of a vehicle sport where strategy, as well as reactions, was key to winning and our focus as we feel compelling sports need both of these.”

Switchblade will be released as a Free-to-Play title on PS4 in late 2018.
