One of the most iconic series of miniature car toys will be
bringing their first proper video games in YEARS to consoles
and PC. This game is part of the official Micro Machines video
game series, previously released by such publishing companies
as Camerica, Ocean Software, Midway, THQ, Infogrames, and
Chillingo. Previous developers include such elder groups as Big
Red Software, Merit Studios, Mindscape, Supersonic Software,
and Infogrames Sheffield House. Now it’s time for a modern
release.
While it’s true that there was a Micro Machines game released
in July of 2016, that was merely a mobile game. Here in 2017,
we’re getting a game from the folks at Codemasters and Deep
Silver. With this release, the game returns to consoles and PC,
including Xbox One, PlayStation 4, and Windows.
This game will be able to be comfortably played by all users,
young and old. Users that’ve previously played the game –
legacy players — classic game modes will be quite familiar.
That includes “Race” — of course — and “Elimination” as well as
a brand new way to play in “Battle Arenas.” Also included will
be “Capture the Flag” and “King of the Hill” game modes.
For those legacy players of the Micro Machines game series,
this release will roll with a number of classic game modes and
classic game maps. Levels like the garden, the workshop, and
the kitchen will be available in all their slightly-modified
and far more high definition glory. Have a peek at the trailer
below, but don’t expect a whole lot in the way of gameplay.
We’ll see more of what the game will actually, truly look like
hopefully rather soon. The game itself will be released in
April 2017 for consoles and Windows PC. At that time, we’ll
expect the promise of a collection of Hasbro titles within this
game to be fulfilled — all the Hungry Hungry Hippos, G.I. Joe,
OUIJA, and NERF we could possibly desire.
