00:00:00.120 --> 00:00:02.790
- Have you ever wanted to
get inside a Hot Wheels car

2
00:00:02.790 --> 00:00:04.140
and drive it around?

3
00:00:04.140 --> 00:00:06.540
Maybe race against your friends in it?

4
00:00:06.540 --> 00:00:09.120
That's what the makers of
"Hot Wheels: Rift Rally"

5
00:00:09.120 --> 00:00:10.650
are planning to let you do

6
00:00:10.650 --> 00:00:14.010
when it comes to PS5 and iOS this March.

7
00:00:14.010 --> 00:00:15.600
It's from Velan Studios,

8
00:00:15.600 --> 00:00:18.360
the same team that brought
you "Mario Kart Live,"

9
00:00:18.360 --> 00:00:22.110
and the result is like an
expanded version of that game.

10
00:00:22.110 --> 00:00:23.670
The package comes with the game

11
00:00:23.670 --> 00:00:26.460
and the Hot Wheels Chameleon RC car,

12
00:00:26.460 --> 00:00:29.070
which has a camera mounted on top of it.

13
00:00:29.070 --> 00:00:30.840
Like in "Mario Kart Live,"

14
00:00:30.840 --> 00:00:33.690
you can drive it around
from your console or phone,

15
00:00:33.690 --> 00:00:36.510
and the game will render a
virtual track over its footage

16
00:00:36.510 --> 00:00:38.310
using real world gates.

17
00:00:38.310 --> 00:00:40.920
You'll still be able to
drift like in Mario Kart,

18
00:00:40.920 --> 00:00:43.410
but you'll also be able to
pull off additional tricks

19
00:00:43.410 --> 00:00:46.470
like doing donuts or jumping off ramps.

20
00:00:46.470 --> 00:00:48.570
Of course, those tricks won't translate

21
00:00:48.570 --> 00:00:50.610
from your screen to the real car,

22
00:00:50.610 --> 00:00:53.520
but the car will adjust
its speed to match them.

23
00:00:53.520 --> 00:00:54.930
It'll also change its speed

24
00:00:54.930 --> 00:00:57.060
if one of your opponents rams into you

25
00:00:57.060 --> 00:00:58.920
or hits you with a special skill.

26
00:00:58.920 --> 00:01:01.800
The included RC car is
called the Chameleon

27
00:01:01.800 --> 00:01:04.710
because you can unlock different
cars in the game itself,

28
00:01:04.710 --> 00:01:07.530
each with their own stats, and
the Chameleon will actually

29
00:01:07.530 --> 00:01:09.720
change the way it drives to match.

30
00:01:09.720 --> 00:01:11.070
The goal here is to make this

31
00:01:11.070 --> 00:01:13.740
the only RC car you'll ever need.

32
00:01:13.740 --> 00:01:16.200
The game itself has a
free play stunt mode,

33
00:01:16.200 --> 00:01:18.990
a versus mode to race
against other Chameleons,

34
00:01:18.990 --> 00:01:22.230
a pass-the-controller style
four-player co-op mode,

35
00:01:22.230 --> 00:01:23.640
and even a full campaign

36
00:01:23.640 --> 00:01:26.490
with plenty of racing and
stunt-based challenges.

37
00:01:26.490 --> 00:01:28.440
These can get pretty creative too.

38
00:01:28.440 --> 00:01:29.790
In my time trying the game,

39
00:01:29.790 --> 00:01:31.867
I had to fight a fricking dragon.

40
00:01:31.867 --> 00:01:33.390
"Hot Wheels: Rift Rally"

41
00:01:33.390 --> 00:01:36.960
launches on March 14th for PS5 and iOS.

42
00:01:36.960 --> 00:01:40.263
