Featuring a 5,000+ square mile open-world, Codemasters and developer Asobo Studio release a cinematic trailer for FUEL which mixes violent climate change with off-road extreme racing. That can't be bad can it?

"FUEL is set in an alternate present in which whole swathes of the globe have been ravaged by the effects of climate change brought on by decades of environmental abuse. Here oil prices have rocketed and yet a new breed of racing junkie takes to the wastelands, pitting their grungy home-tuned vehicles against each other in an all-new extreme sport as they compete to win fuel supplies. To triumph means travelling the wastelands to challenge the best; from the tsunami-wrecked pacific coast through the Nevada wastelands, including the Grand Canyon, up treacherous snow-capped mountains, thick forests, arid deserts, abandoned lakeside resorts and much more."

FUEL is still TBA in terms of a release date but will be heading for the PC, PS3 and Xbox 360. Fans of Pure, MotorStorm... your thoughts?
