Bugbear's Next Car Game is going to be a Wreckfest

[GreenL420]

Up until now, Bugbear Entertainment has focused on tuning Next Car Game's gears rather than its name, including tweaks to its Early Access build that has already collected $1 million. The team has taken a pit stop to choose an encompassing decal for the side of their racer however, and their winner feels suited to Next Car Game's key idea: "Wreckfest."

Drivers already trashing rides in Wreckfest's Early Access build can now partake in 18-player matches, with Bugbear now "pushing the limits" to eventually allow for 24 cars to share the same event. Bugbear's update also adds Deathmatch and Team Deathmatch game modes, a two-in-one oval and figure-eight track, a European coupe, changes to Wreckfest's physics engine and more.

Console ports were once part of Next Car Game's canceled Kickstarter campaign, but even with the project finding life on Early Access, Lead Game Designer Janne Suur-Nakki told Polygon earlier this year that the team is "hoping that we will have a chance to port the game on PS4, Xbox One or both somewhere along the way."
