SuperTrucks Offroad was launched on Steam with zero marketing. The goal was always to launch the game globally on desktop, web and mobile at once, with a complete PR marketing campaign to have the most players in the game at one time, and to grow the multiplayer base.

Fortunately from the Steam launch alone, enough has been learnt in the last 18 months about the shortcomings of the game and where it could be improved upon, thanks to valuable feedback from the community and player reviews.

The game will launch globally towards the end of August. A specialist game PR company has been hired to promote/launch the game, and the game will be promoted upon many other channels and many YouTube channels.

Here is a list of features that will be added to the game for global release...

  • Achievements
  • 10 Exhibition race tournaments in career mode with unique tracks so career mode will take much longer to complete.
  • Career mode locked by level (so players need to compete in either exhibition race events or multiplayer/ghost car challenge to up their level)
  • Hardcore career mode (tougher AI, 8 trucks per race)
  • Level Up Rewards
  • Daily Login Rewards
  • Complete Main Menu Redesign
  • Pre Race and Race Results dialogs redesign
  • Settings menu redesign with more options
  • Epic and Legendary customise items and crates
  • Loads of Multiplayer Improvements and multiplayer only rewards and tracks
  • Tiered monthly multiplayer leagues that offer epic/legendary truck cosmetic items to the top players each month
  • A ghost car challenge system where you can bet in-game currency and challenge a player to beat your best lap time on a specific track.
  • Tiered monthly ghost car challenge leagues that offer epic/legendary truck cosmetic items to the top players each month
  • Tons of other small improvements
  • After global launch, the addition of other vehicle classes such as Buggies and Rally Cross vehicles will be added with unique handling, in addition an alternate vehicle physics system may be implemented.

  • Changed top-down camera to more of a top-down view, and broadcast to a similar camera but with slower rotation.
  • Reduced player truck speed overall and fine tuned AI racing speed.
  • Fixed a bug where a truck could miss a checkpoint because it was auto-reset.
  • Fixed lap time format when showing leaderboard before race
  • Auto-reset/flip starting speed reduced to 15
  • Further suspension tweaks to prevent trucks from having awkward landings in some places.
  • Updated missing localised texts for all non-English languages.
  • Various other small improvements and some bug fixes

Patch Notes

  • Fixed some suspension landing issues and implemented suspension upgrades slightly differently. The more upgraded your suspension now, tighter the body roll will be. Overall vehicle handling has been improved.
  • Truck reset now moves player back to the middle of the track. If the player is auto-reset, they maintain a decent speed instead of no longer stopping completely.
  • Added a 30% chance of getting a customise item from a cash crate. Gold crates now have 2 customise item chances at 30% each.
  • Improved appearance and added effects to customise cards when winning them in a crate.
  • Fixed the fake blob shadow not appearing under trucks on Low Graphics Quality setting.
  • Fixed Reddit link not working on main menu

The big update is out!

Thank you all for being so patient. Please download the update and give your feedback on the new track artwork and the new AI system.

Along with the new artwork and AI have been loads of bug fixes and other small improvements.

Release Notes

Brand new environments
The race track artwork has been completely re-done from scratch, and uses the latest graphics enhancements such as PBR (Physically Based Rendering) to make the game look even more realistic.

Improved truck cosmetics
The truck body paint and tyres now used improved shaders and look much better in-game. The truck customise screen has also been greatly improved.

You can now also move/rotate the truck around in the customise screen.

In-game multiplayer notifications to get more matches
Many players complained that they had troubles matching people in multiplayer games.

If you are in the main menu, or in a single player race, and somebody in your region opens the game, you will both get a 'Game found' notification. You have 5 seconds to press ENTER to join this game. If both of you do not press ENTER within the 5 seconds, the notification will disappear and you will not see another notification in that race.

If you both press ENTER, you will be taken into a multiplayer race.

Currently multiplayer matching will match you with anybody within 10 levels of your player level.

The matching will only occur if both players have completed the tutorial. So make sure the multiplayer buttton on the main menu is enabled.


Multiplayer sync improvements
Multiplayer sync has received a complete overhaul, synchronisation of opponents trucks is now much smoother and more accurate than it was previously.

Longer content path
Previously players were completing the game too quickly, so the upgrade path is now more lengthy and costly, and players will need to race in multiplayer and daily challenge races to increase their income in order to beat the higher level AI opponents in career mode. Remember to drag 4 unique cards into empty upgrade slots to get your free upgrades.

Brand new AI system
The brand new AI system is complete and the new system has more realistic trucks to challenge you in career mode!

Too many bug fixes and other small improvements to mention.
