When I was at PAX East, I got to try out a bunch of ATARI's upcoming and current lineup, but one of the games that stood out was NeoSprint. With addicting isometric racing and a fantastic track builder, it feels like one of those awesome titles I could play for hours on end on the Steam Deck. And with the new trailer that just dropped, it seems like the wait won't be much longer to experience it on the go!
In the new trailer, which shows off some of the game's great features, we have a confirmed release date of June 27th! That means in about 1 month, we will get to relive the glory days of isometric arcade racing with 8-player multiplayer.
From what I learned at PAX, this is going to be an amazing game to play on the Steam Deck, with some of the team primarily playing and testing on the portable device. It seems like the perfect game for it too, with lower system requirements and minimalistic-styled visuals. The multiplayer is only local/split-screen, which is nice, but if you want to play online, you will need to use Remote Play! Otherwise, it has full controller support and cloud saves, so we will be having a blast playing on the go.
NeoSprint will be releasing on June 27th, and luckily, it has already been Steam Deck Verified!
