Get that truck ready as Monster Jam Showdown is coming this year
During the recent Xbox Partner Preview, Milestone were on hand to reveal Monster Jam Showdown, the first time the studio has picked up the Monster Jam series, check out the announcement trailer below.
In addition to enjoying all the action of the official competitions, players will be able to drive the iconic trucks in unique environments facing a variety of events which will make the fun as big and as loud as the sport itself. In particular, the game will feature a total of 66 official Monster Jam trucks (40 trucks will be included in the base game and 26 will be available through free or premium DLCs), and more than 140 paint outs to unlock and apply.
Aiming to create a faithful reproduction of Monster Jam live events, fans will compete in all three categories of venues, namely American football fields, baseball stadiums, and speedways, experiencing rectangular, diamond, and oval layouts. Beyond that, players will be able to drive their favourite Monster Jam trucks in three original environments inspired by the American great outdoors: the barren desert of Death Valley, the stunning forests and crystal rivers of Colorado, and the wintry, wild mountains of Alaska. From official competitions such as head-to-head racing and freestyle to specially designed events, a total of 10 different game modes will grant a robust mix of arcade experiences both online and offline, including split-screen.
What is funny about this is that Milestone has it, where the last few games were done by Rainbow Studios and this year Rainbow Studios is handling the Monster Energy Supercross content, which was normally done by Milestone.
Monster Jam Showdown will arrive later in 2024 for all platforms.
