FREE EUROPA DLC
Added a new racing location: The Europa SRRL Racing Complex
You can now explore Jupiter’s icy moon Europa! Terraforming didn’t work, but an alien sea is the ideal location for freaking-fast racing. We added 5 brand new tracks, some of them running entirely underwater.
The single player Career has been extended to include Europa events, and it now spans more than 100 unique races!

You can watch a preview of the new environment in our Europa Trailer!

LEADERBOARDS
Ever wondered how your best lap compares against the rest of the Redout community? Now you can set records for Time Attack, Pure Time Attack, Speed, Survival and Instagib. Your best result is automatically registered and updated every time you compete!

LIVERIES
Redout now includes ship liveries as collectable Steam items, to show off your driving proficiency. Two base liveries are automatically granted, and you can obtain 8 new liveries by playing. Each is unique for each ship in each racing class, which makes them no less than 240! Each livery can be combined with a color scheme, which creates an insane amount of different combinations.
Go make your ship unique!

Want a sneak peak? Here we are!



OFFICIAL SOUNDTRACK, ARTBOOK AND DELUXE EDITION
The Official Redout Soundtrack and Artbook are now available as separate DLCs. New players can purchase the Deluxe Edition which includes both with a 15% discount on the total price.
Soundtrack has 320kbps MP3s as well as lossless Wave files!





FREE DEMO
Redout now features a Free Demo version. Try before you buy.
Not sure you feel this anachronistic as much as we do, but we were in love with free demos during our childhood. Can you blame us?

Why collect monsters or ugly footballers, when you can collect shiny hoverships capable of racing at insane speeds, and the exotic locations where these races are held? It's finally time for Redout trading cards!

If you don't know how it works, Steam will just grant cards as you play Redout. You don't need to be necessarily winning races or grind platinum medals to obtain them: everyone is a winner! The newly obtained cards will appear in your Steam inventory. You can collect half of the cards this way: you'll need to trade them with your friends to complete your collection (missing cards? head to our forums).

Do so, and you'll get some sick Steam badges, profile backgrounds, and emoticons!

• Added 20+ new ship colors as unlockable items: play more, get more, pimp yo ride ;)

VR

• Enabled positional head tracking in VR mode

• Fixed a crash happening in VR when changing advanced options after a race
  
• Fixed crash starting a race in VR

• Fixed some other localization issues. A lot of them
  
• VRWorks library updated
  
• Update to Unreal Engine 4.13
  
• Update to FMod 1.08.14
  
• Turned off the "Use Stencil for LOD Dither Fading" in Project Settings/Rendering. No idea what this means, but apparently was important at the time and sounds like fun. It was more like a reminder to ourselves, but if you got this far in reading the changelog, you deserve something more
  
• Added some more people into the credits. That’s because we scaled up QA and musicians, recently. And those guys are amazing!

STEAM

• STEAM controller support, official layout

KNOWN BUGS

• Portals in Boss Modes are jet black on Oculus. If this happens launch the game in non-vr mode, go to settings and set the portals quality to low. Restart the game in VR and they should work.
