Participate in Parkour Racing With Lightfield, Out Later This Year
Apparently this game has been floating around in the news for over a year now? Madness. Imagine waking up from a coma only to be told that we’re driving cars on the walls, now. How on earth did I miss this one? Parkour racing seems like a genre combo one couldn’t avoid hearing about. Anyways, Lightfield has new gameplay footage to feed your eyeballs.
For those of you unfamiliar with the game’s premise (seriously, how?), Lightfield is a futuristic racing game that does away with the limiting concept of roads. No longer will you be tethered to a single track with pre-defined borders. All the flat surfaces are for driving now. The whole thing looks sci-fi as all get out, with long trails of light following your craft as you speed along. The music featured in the video is equally future-tastic, blending nicely with the constant perspective shifts and other sensory assaults.
Curious gamers who are also attending gamescom will have the chance to get some hands-on time with Lightfield. If you’re not going to gamescom then this five-minute demo video will have to suffice. It’s all butter-smooth laser rides and wall-hops, with no single path to first place looking especially obvious. There’s no concrete release date yet, but Lightfield will be coming out later this year for PS4 and Xbox One.
