What do you get when you combine Burnout with Mad Max and turn it into an RPG? Something pretty darn interesting, by the looks of it. At the recent Future Games Show Summer Showcase, developer Long Way Home and publisher PQube unveiled Resistor, a post-apocalyptic racing RPG that’s in development for PC and consoles.
Set in the year 2060, Resistor sees players playing as Aster, who’s racing to win a ticket that will allow her to seek refuge within one of the cities that are still left standing on Earth. Resistor will see players recruiting a band of racers, and when you’re not zipping through races that’ll combine high-speed racing with car combat, you’ll be exploring plenty of open world areas, building up relationships with your crew members, and making choices that’ll determine what ending you get. Check out the announcement trailer below.
Resistor is in development for PS5, Xbox Series X/S, Nintendo Switch, and PC. A release date hasn’t yet been announced.
