Developer Milestone, known for its work on Hot Wheels Unleashed, took to The Game Awards stage to announce its next racing game. Titled Screamer, the game uses the name of the classic 1995 racing title. Check out the trailer below.
The trailer for Screamer shows off the game’s unique art style, which melds bright neon-coloured lights with a darker cyberpunk aesthetic for the world. The game also seemingly melds 3D vehicles with 2D characters, resulting in an incredibly unique look.
While we didn’t get much in the way of gameplay for Screamer, the developer has stated that it will feature high-octane racing action and deep gameplay. Uniquely for a racing game, Screamer will also feature a story inspired by 80s and 90s anime and manga, complete with interwoven character arcs. The story is set to feature themes of revenge, love, greed, and human will, as well as elements of classic sci-fi.
Screamer is slated for release in 2026, and will be coming to PC, PS5, and Xbox Series X/S.
