Trackmania Turbo is available today
by 
With the success of Rocket League the hunt is now on for competitive games that appeal to wide audiences – those that may break out of the particular genre they are considered within and reach greater numbers of consumers. One such game that could fit the bill is Trackmania Turbo which released today on PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC for $40. The game just came out of an open beta where the impressions were generally positive.
Trackmania Turbo is an arcade-style racer similar in nature to the well-regarded Trials series (which instead features motorbikes) based on addictive time-based objectives and competition working up the leaderboards. In addition to the four environments built for the game it includes a track builder and sharing feature. Trackmania has actually been around since 2003 with several releases since then but this is the first time making the jump to consoles.
