Trials Fusion Dev Teases Co-op Mode and New Areas -- Where Do You Want to Play?

RedLynx, developer of the 2D platforming-racing game Trials Fusion, teased future plans for the game and detailed its first DLC pack today.

In an interview on the Ubisoft blog, Creative Director Antti Ilvessuo said that a cooperative multiplayer mode is coming to Trials Fusion. He didn't explain this feature, but he did say, "Imagine playing Trials for your Teams, against other Teams on tracks and in tournaments and, in a little bit later down the road, online."

He also hinted where you will be able to ride in future Trials Fusion content. "We are planning to take the world of Trials Fusion to places that no Trials game has gone before," he said, "into the clouds, under the sea and even deep underground."

Ilvessuo also provided some new details for the game's first of six DLC packs. Called Riders of the Rustlands, the pack will take you to the outskirts of the futuristic city where the main game takes place. It launches on July 29.

The pack comes with a bunch of new tracks, challenges, and editor objects. It costs $4.99, but season pass holders can download it for free.

You can see the full list of what's included below.

• 5 new achievements/trophies
• 10 new tracks
  • 6 classic Trials tracks
  • 2 new Supercross tracks (local multiplayer)
  • One new Skill Game (“Laws of Motion”)
  • One new FMX track (“The Gauntlet”)
• 18 new Track Challenges, including tasks such as:
  • Infiltrate the Outsiders’ hidden base
  • Compete in a game show against penguins
  • Find more secret squirrels
• New editor objects, including:
  • Steel pipe set
  • Wooden ramp set
  • Computer mainframes

Trials Fusion DLC is planned to be released until May 2015. Free content updates will come between the packs, so keep an eye on GameSpot for future details on upcoming content.

When Fusion launched in April, GameSpot thought that it was great. Riders of the Rustlands will be available on Xbox 360, Xbox One, PlayStation 4, and PC.
