What Made Wreckfest So Special?
Wreckfest was an easily accessible game with a learning curve that appealed to any type of player. You didn’t need to be a racing game fan to have fun with the game. It also features wheel support for more serious players. What started as an early beta about fifteen years ago that showcased the physics ended up coming to multiple platforms. The only real issue was the inability to carry progression across all platforms. The game eventually came with a PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series version as it upped the visuals to support both 60 FPS and 120 FPS. Plenty of content was added over the long tenure of the original game, which brings the same hope with the sequel.
