#Carmageddon reincarnation events series
The Carmageddon event is a vehicular tournament that takes place in Bleak City, and sees a group of psychotic lunatics thrashing it out for the top spot in a series of high-speed clashes in which pedestrians (here just called “peds”) are used as walking bags of bloody points. Essentially a re-release of PC-only Kickstarter Carmageddon: Reincarnation, Max Damage hits consoles with 40% more content and slightly improved visuals, and brings with it the deliberately inflammatory humour and Daily Mail-baiting mechanics for which the series has been known since its inception back in 1997. If the needled ever spiked above “gutter”, someone probably got sacked. It’s almost as if developers Stainless Games had some kind of meter going during the making of Carmageddon to indicate its current level of taste and decency.

Which is why I should be forgiven for enjoying Carmageddon: Max Damage, a driving game concerned with very little other than senseless, over-the-top violence. I like to boot up a shooter or an RPG or an open world action game and go nuts, blasting and killing and swearing and generally blowing shit up. If I’m dead honest, I get the best results from violence, which is probably because I’m such a pussycat in real life. If games didn’t have the ability to chill me out after a tough spell, I wouldn’t bother. Nothing is better than unwinding at the end of a long day with a spot of blasting in Call of Duty or Destiny, a bit of sightseeing with Uncharted or an hour or so of banter on Rocket League. As popular as modding is in the Wreckfest community, I wouldn’t be surprised to see the original pedestrians pop up sooner or later.For a lot of people, myself included, playing games is a form of catharsis. When Carmageddon first hit shelves way back in 1997, some markets (Germany in particular) had the human pedestrians removed and replaced with green-blooded zombies. Publisher THQ Nordic gained ownership of the Carmageddon IP back in 2018 and it seems they are putting it to good use.īased on the teaser footage shown in the trailer above, it seems as though this event will feature the sprite-based pedestrians from the censored version of the original game. This mode offers a more traditional race structure, along with all the fun that zombie pedestrians and bloodthirsty opponents bring.

This free-roam mode gives players a limited amount of time to wreck AI drivers and run over some zombie pedestrians in classic Carmageddon fashion. The update brings an exclusive monthly event, known as Carnage Accumulator.

Now the two franchises are coming together for a special event that will see Carmageddon-themed content coming to Bugbear’s destruction derby masterpiece.Ĭoming to all platforms today (and free of charge), the Carmageddon Tournament update brings along two special events as well as the iconic Eagle R, the showcase car from Carmageddon: Max Damage. Many years before Wreckfest, another driving game turned heads with state-of-the-art car collisions and mayhem - Carmageddon. Its mix of advanced driving physics and unmatched destruction led it to become one of our favorite multiplayer games. We here at Shacknews make no attempts to hide our love for Bugbear’s bone-crunching driving game Wreckfest.
