Warhammer 40,000: Speed Freeks is a new racer filled with orks blowing each other up

Plus, there’s already an alpha test happening!

If you love both driving and blowing up cars, then the recent announcement of Warhammer 40,000: Speed Freeks is probably right up your alley.

It all sounds very cool though - for one, it’s got classes like you’d find in an RPG or hero shooter, albeit with cars instead of characters. This includes classes such as killers, tanks, and support wagons, which sound like your usual DPS, tank, and support roles. Plus there are seven unique vehicles to try out to offer different styles.

The main game made featured in the alpha is described as “a hard-hitting combat racing conquest that ends in a glorious sprint to the finish. A fresh take on the vehicular shooter, this mode has players racing to capture points where they battle it out for the bigger score, and has them pushing the pedal to the metal in a race towards the finish.”

As someone not that familiar with the Warhammer universe, this is giving my some Jak X vibes, that Jak and Daxter racing game that probably wasn’t very good, but man did I like the vibes as a kid, so I’m into what Speed Freeks is offering.

Warhammer 40K: Speed Freeks doesn’t have a release date at this point in time, and is currently just planned for release on PC.
