Onrush (PS4, Xbox One – June 5)
Best Games to Look Forward to in June 2018
We haven’t seen all that many games like Onrush for a while. The Forza series may have its Horizon spin-off series, offering a fun arcade spin on the simulation racing the Motorsport series is renowned for, but it’s still not the same insane kind of action you’ll get in Onrush. Sure, this is a racer, but it also includes things such as Takedowns (a la Burnout), the Rush system which grants each vehicle its own insane speed boost that’s both unique in its look and execution; and oddly enough, it’s not always about even finishing in first position.
Onrush has clearly taken inspiration from the likes of Burnout and Motorstorm. However, it’s its emphasis on team-based play that makes it quite unlike anything else out there, and a heck of a lot more fun than simply gunning for the finish line.
