With an improved formula, the addition of a new vehicle type, and harnessing the game engine Unreal Engine 5, Overpass 2 by the Belgian studio Neopica offers an unprecedented off-road racing experience.

The game gives players the opportunity to drive 33 vehicles, across 3 distinct categories: UTV (buggy), ATV (quad) and Rock Bouncer. The latter is one of the major new features of this second edition. These unorthodox-looking machines are equipped with a reinforced frame and a powerful engine, generating the mechanical energy required to reach the steepest hilltops, and bounce off the toughest obstacles.

The game features a host of manufacturers, such as Kawasaki, Yamaha, Polaris, Artic Cat and Suzuki, as well as 4 officially licenced Rock Bouncers: Venom, Screamin Blue, Rum Runner and Smoked-out.

Overpass 2 puts natural environments centre stage, featuring 5 different regions: Baja Desert, Johnson Valley, Utah Desert, East Central US (Ohio, Wisconsin, Indiana, Michigan and Illinois) and Western Europe.

The off-road adventure starts now, with 4 game modes providing their fair share of rocks, bogs and many other obstacles:

  • Career mode: This challenge-packed mode features driver creation, team management including a skills tree, an events calendar, sponsor development, research & development options and vehicle preparation
  • Quick race: Jump straight behind the wheel with 5 unique disciplines, i.e. off-road sprints, obstacle courses, hillclimbs, closed circuit races and off-road circuits
  • Multi-player: Test yourself online against up to 8 other players anywhere in the world, or locally against up to 4 friends in split-screen mode
  • Academy:  Get to grips with the 3 vehicle categories, Buggy (UTV), Quad (ATV) and Rock Bouncer, via their dedicated tutorials, or learn more about the game’s various circuits in free mode
