Gentlemen, start your robots! SRC: Sprint Robot Championship is celebrating its Steam Early Access one-year birthday with a special Anniversary update that’ll intensify its head-spinning first-person racing experience that combines unlimited speed with unprecedented dexterity.
SRC is set in a distant future where robots compete in the premier Sprint Robot Championships. Players assume the role of sprint robots as they race across a number of challenging tracks that are guaranteed to test their reflexes. Sprint upside down, slide under barriers, wall run and boost through tracks with no speed restrictions across 4 game modes:
- Circuit – Multi-lap races where taking the long way early can help build momentum for a speedy finish.
- Sprint – Short point-to-point races where taking the shortest route is key as players run through each course while searching for hidden shortcuts to dash through.
- Eliminator – Unlimited momentum meets endless racing. This is where SRC truly shines as players try to beat the clock by reaching checkpoints that add extra time. The longer you survive, the better your score.
- Championship – SRC’s single-player campaign that focuses on rewarding points based on a racer’s overall performance.
Once players master the basics of SRC, they can challenge friends and rivals in either competitive matchmaking for up to 4 players or set world records via local/online leaderboards across all tracks.
The Anniversary update introduces bug fixes and quality of life improvements that include the ability to race through all tracks in either Circuit or Eliminator mode. This doubles the base game content as prior to this update, players were only able to play each track in their respective game mode. Additional improvements include a revamped Championship mode with 10 new Championships to complete, network lobby improvements, and a leaderboard wipe to several tracks to accommodate for the recent changes.
SRC: Sprint Robot Championship is slated for a full release on March 1, 2021 and will continue to receive additional content, like new tracks for Sprint mode and quality of life improvements during its Early Access period.
