Pretty cool id get it for the time being till the real deal comes out. EA gave criterion games (Burnout creators) the green light to do a new Road Rash.

That chick in the second video is goofy as hell

Oh man, Road Rash was one of my favorite games for Genesis as a kid. Though it doesn't look like they'll be keeping the soundtrack the same as the previous games, which was what just made the game even better. Either way though, it looks awesome, can't wait to see it progress more, it looks pretty promising and quite like the other games with a beautiful new design.

This game is still set to come to Wii U sometime in 2015.

Lead your motorcycle gang on an epic journey across the country in this procedurally-generated driving combat adventure.

Earn money by completing races, assassinations, robberies, and other challenges in your path. As you collect loot, you’ll upgrade your character, your bike, and your weapons.

One Life To Live

Driving a motorcycle at 100 mph while trying to hit someone with a pipe is dangerous, and death can come quickly. There are no extra lives nor continues. Fortunately, every time you die, all the experience you’ve collected can be used to upgrade your character, your bike, and your weapons.

In the multiplayer mode, you can work with your friends or fight against them. It’s up to you.

A Truly Epic Quest

Road Redemption takes place in a post-apocalyptic America, ruled by a brutal dictator. Without telling anyone, your gang leader has decided to head to the capital on a desperate assassination attempt. When the government catches him, the consequences for your gang, and everyone you know and love, will be devastating.

It’s up to you and your fellow gang members to race across hundreds of miles of dangerous highways in order to track down your derelict leader before the government does. What you do next is up to you. Do you try to stop him in order to protect your family and friends from punishment, or do you join him in a risky attempt at ending the oppression once and for all?

Other Features

 

    Single Player Campaign with full 4-player splitscreen co-op (online support coming very soon).
    Massive, expandable skill tree. Rack in the loot to upgrade your character, your bike, and your weapons.
    A deep motorcycle fighting system with grabs, kicks, counters, critical strikes, and more.
    Full support for both mouse & keyboard and gamepad control configurations.

Road Rash was a fundamentally ridiculous game about hyper-violent motorcycle races in which victory could be achieved either by being faster than your opponents, or by pushing them into oncoming traffic at 120 miles per hour. That's a good description of Road Redemption too, a "spiritual successor" that blasted through Kickstarter and Steam Greenlight last year, and is now available on Steam Early Access.

If anything, Road Redemption is even more violent than Road Rash, which as I recall had neither automatic weapons nor tumbling, exploding cars. But I do very much recall cackling like a fool every time an opponent ran headlong into an American-made sedan and got launched into the stratosphere for his trouble. As you can see from this new trailer, Road Redemption is loaded with all kinds of that silliness, and more.

There are a number of significant differences, however. If you crash out in Road Redemption, you won't just dust yourself off and get back on the road, because you'll be dead. Money collected during races can be used to upgrade your character, your weapons and your bike, and there's even a bit of a story, too, although I'm guessing it won't keep you on the edge of your seat in anticipation of the next exciting chapter in the tale.

Developer Dark Seas Interactive describe the Road Redemption Early Access release as a "10-15 hour experience," and says that it's already been extensively playtested and bug-tested. It's currently being offered at a ten percent discount off the $20 Early Access price tag, which the studio says will go up to $30 or $35 at launch, currently scheduled for early 2015. If you want it, in other words, now's the time to get it.
