What kind of game is it?

Blur is a racing game that combines real-life cars from real manufacturers with the weaponized mayhem found in kart racing games. That means you can expect to chuck massive red fireballs at a real-life Lotus Exige as it attempts to shunt you for first place.

Who's the Developer?

Liverpool, UK-based Bizarre Creations has concocted a diverse range of games from Geometry Wars to The Club to its bread and butter, the Project Gotham Racing series.

What's the story?

It's a kart-based racing game. You shoot fireballs and lightning at other cars. How much plot do you need?

Multiplayer/Online?

Blur will feature online races for up to 20 cars. That's a lot of mayhem to take in. If you've got a big enough TV, you can also play split-screen races with up to three other people.
