SPOTLIGHT ON THE UTVs, ONE OF THE THREE VEHICLE CATEGORIES AVAILABLE IN THE GAME

Lesquin, France – July 26, 2023 – In the run-up to the release of Overpass 2, NACON and its studio Neopica are offering players the chance to discover more about the UTVs (Utility Task Vehicles) – one of the three vehicle categories in the game, which will be available from October 19, 2023 on PlayStation®5, Xbox Series X|S and PC.

With 30 vehicles under three different categories, Overpass 2 is offering fans of the discipline the chance to tackle a whole bunch of races in different environments, choosing the vehicle best suited to their style and their needs. These include UTVs (more commonly known as buggies), which are versatile, dynamic vehicles suitable for any situation. Renowned for their speed and drivability thanks to their built-in steering wheel, rather than just handlebars, they can save you time on straight lines and easily handle some types of obstacles.

The game offers a choice of 17 different UTVs, from four renowned manufacturers: Kawasaki, Yamaha, Polaris & Artic Cat. The developers made it a point of honor to faithfully reproduce the vehicles’ build, for ever greater realism. They also focused on customization, both in terms of look, with liveries and paintwork, and in technical terms with engine, tires or even suspension modifications.

Featuring a full Career mode, varied environments and races, and advanced vehicle customization, the Overpass 2 development team set out to offer a whole new off-road game.
