Why Early Access?

“With our focus on community - playing competitively and building creatively - releasing as early-access is the perfect choice for 22 Racing Series.

GOATi are also fully independent, self-funded and self-published, so the chance to involve players and modders early to help develop the game and engine features in-line with community needs will help to continue and guide development.”

“22 Racing Series will be in early-access for between 12-24 months.”

How is the full version planned to differ from the Early Access version?

“For the full release of the game we plan to include features and content including:
  • New vehicle designs.
  • New tracks and environments.
  • New multiplayer game modes.
  • Enhanced user content creation tools.
  • UI updates and polish.
  • Graphics and shader updates and polish.

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“The 22 Racing Series early-access build is core feature complete and fully playable.

During early-access we plan on developing additional local content, additional multiplayer features, additional UGC features and graphics updates and polish.”

Will the game be priced differently during and after Early Access?

“We plan to gradually raise the price as we ship new content and features.”

How are you planning on involving the Community in your development process?

“We’re building a game with unique features and a focus on community content and multiplayer, and so community feedback is key.

We welcome community feedback in everything from core gameplay features, UGC tools, online multiplayer and anything in-between.”

Reviews

“There is still plenty for 22 Racing Series to do to be a complete racing game, but the basic structure is there to make it a truly revolutionary racing game. The community’s ability to create custom tracks combined with an amazing physics system that incorporates legitimately intriguing strategy options has me excited to see what 22 Racing Series can become once it leaves early access. While it’s not a complete game yet, 22 Racing Series is absolutely a game to keep your eye on if you’re a fan of challenging racing games.”

About This Game

"22RS combines insanely fast physics-based racing with extreme vehicles and track designs reminiscent of a future racer - And somehow manages to pull it off!"

Drive beyond Mach 1, and reach speeds up to 1,000 Mph / 1,600 Kph

It feels like a future racer - But it's done with physics.

This is achieved with a vehicle that changes its downforce in real-time with a fly-by-wire setup that adjusts spoilers, suspension, tire pressure (and more) based on speed.

Go faster -> Pull more downforce -> Master more insane tracks.

And ... It's not just an ultra fast racing game ...

22RS features RTS mechanics never seen before in racing games:

  • Track capture - Capture resources from the track by getting the fastest sector times.

  • Vehicle upgrades: Upgrade your engine, boosters, ERS, and capacitors mid race.

  • Mid Race Resources - Collect electricity and plasma and spend them to boost, buy upgrades, or use 'abilities'.

  • Abilities: Paint the track with an area based effect that gives boosts and energy to you, or steals speed and energy from opponents.


Game modding built in

  • Vehicle Tuning - Tune the vehicle to make it do (almost) whatever you want.

  • Race Builder - Create any kind of racing mode and strategy that you like.

  • Track Builder - Edit > Race > Edit instantly, and share globally with one click.

VR Racing - An extreme experience for thrill seekers

We get a lot of great feedback about the 22RS racing experience in VR.

So if you like the idea of extreme experiences in VR, then we'd welcome you to give it a try.

22RS is built using RevGen. A custom engine that allows us to do 1200+Hz physics. 

Extremely high frame rates and super high physics sample rates = a silky smooth physics handling experience at insanely high racing speeds.

'22 Racing Series' is currently available as an early-access game.

We're an independent team, (currently*) without investor or publisher backing.
*Though if you're interested, don't be shy about letting us know.

If you like getting into new games early and like to give feedback on the direction of a game's development, then we'd love for you to join us.
