Faaast Penguin, the free-to-play chaotic multiplayer racing game developed by historia Inc., dives belly-first onto Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, and PC via Steam and the Epic Games Store in September this year, as announced at Future Games Show at gamescom. Pre-register for access to special skins, and test the slopes during Open Beta Test from Friday, 6 September at 18:00 PST until Sunday, 8 September at 21:00 PST.
Roll, slide and glide from summit to finish line in a reckless downhill race solo, alongside up to four friends in online multiplayer, or in a battle royale against forty fearless penguin pals. Knock competitors off-course, zoom across speed boosts, scoop up items, and take risky shortcuts while jockeying for first place in a fast-paced battle race.
Pump up the momentum across island resorts, desert pyramids, lush forests, and much more with 16 tracks available at launch and more to come afterwards. Deftly maneuver to reach the finish line and survive the cut, staving off elimination after every round. Winners can hop aboard a ride to the next race, but losers get left behind to try their luck by starting a new race at the summit.
Careen towards Sardine Cans to increase speed, and collect 10 cans to fuel up an impervious, high-speed Ultimate Ride boost on a rocket. Ram into rivals to bump birds skyward to give enemies a brief taste of flight while slowing their momentum.
Collect the most points at the end of 4 races to achieve victory! Customize outfits, Rides, Ultimate Rides, and emotes to stand out! Some outfits even change based on gameplay. Since performance is not affected, why not enjoy vacation in style? Return for each additional season and enjoy new themes and added courses!
“Faaast Penguin was designed to be an exhilarating experience for all ages, as if you were on an activity tour of a resort the moment you launch the game,” said Shun Sasaki, Producer / Game Designer at historia, Inc. “In the races, you can attack your rivals to fly into the sky and gain advantages, which we believe is a gaming experience that has never been seen before. We hope you will experience the thrill of taking shortcuts by successfully launching a series of attacks!”
Faaast Penguin arrives on Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series XIS, and PC via Steam and the Epic Games Store in September 2024. For more information, follow historia Inc. on X (formerly Twitter).
