Focus Home Interactive, publishers of Spintires, Blood Bowl, and Farming Simulator, have announced Spintires: MudRunner in a news post on the game's Steam Community page.
Spintires: MudRunner is an upgraded version of Spintires that improves on its predecessor in a number of ways. The original game's five environments have been joined together into one large sandbox map. A challenge mode with 9 dedicated maps has been created. The graphics have been completely overhauled, and 13 new vehicles have been added to the roster. A trailer was released alongside the announcement to give gamers an idea of what they can expect in this new version of the game:
Current owners of Spintires on PC will be able to grab the upgraded version at a 50% discount. In addition to the new features and improvements being added to the game, Spintires: MudRunner will also be available on new platforms for the first time: the game will release on Xbox One and PlayStation 4 alongside the PC version. Players will be able to play solo or with up to 4 total players in a co-operative experience as they deliver goods and navigate treacherous, muddy terrain in the Siberian wilderness. Those looking to get a little extra mileage out of their investment will be happy to hear that the game will have support for mods on launch for the PC version of the game.
You can add Spintires: MudRunner to your Steam wishlist or pre-order it on Steam for $26.99 (a 10% discount) or your regional equivalent. It's set to release sometime in October 2017 for PC, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One.
