Descenders, a Procedurally Generated 'Skate on Bikes'


You had me at "Skate on..."

Action Henk developer RageSquid - along with new publisher No More Robots - has announced Descenders, an extreme downhill freeriding game with procedurally generated worlds.

Aiming to arrive on Steam, Xbox One, PS4 and Switch, the game's been described as "Skate on bikes" by its publisher, with a deep physics system underpinning its focus on point-scoring tricks. Procedurally generated worlds mean that individual runs can't be learned, putting a premium on player skill.

It looks absurdly, terrifyingly quick in its debut trailer:

The game will ask players to choose from one of three teams, earning exclusive gear depending on which one is chosen, and winning prizes if their team comes at the top of the leaderboard at the end of each month.

There's no firm released ate as yet, but RageSquid is aiming for a Steam release in late 2017/early 2018, with consoles to follow in 2018. You can see more on the Descenders website.

RageSquid will be running a beta for the game before release - head to the Descenders Discord and choose a team to sign up.
