Milestone, a leading global racing game developer and publisher based in Milan, and Feld Motor Sports, Inc.™, the worldwide leader in specialized arena and stadium-based motorsports entertainment, have officially released Monster Jam Showdown, the arcade racing game full of explosive stunts and destruction, on consoles and PC.

Watch the Monster Jam Showdown launch trailer here:

Developed in Unreal Engine 5, Monster Jam Showdown features 66* official Monster Jam™ trucks and more than 140 paint outs to unlock and apply. The pillar of the single-player experience is Showdown Tour, where players can show off their most electrifying stunts in freestyle and head-to-head competitions along with several other adrenaline-pumping game modes. For players to operate these mechanical machines capable of 1,500 horsepower with ease, comprehensible and customizable driving aids will allow everyone to perform death-defying stunts.

Real monster truck action needs a home that’s above and beyond the ordinary, and the Showdown Tour does just that by offering extreme racing locales. In addition to competing in stadiums inspired by real-life venues, players will have the opportunity to drive their favorite Monster Jam trucks across three original environments inspired by iconic American landscapes, such as the barrens of Death Valley, the mountains of Colorado, and Alaska’s frozen tundra. These environments are perfect for immersing players in the arcade soul of this new entry in Milestone’s catalog. Thanks to destructible objects, unpredictable track designs, and extreme weather conditions, no two events across these levels are the same.

Players with a competitive edge will also have plenty of opportunities to prove themselves as the best. Split-screen enables thrilling duels with family and friends, while two online-only events will feature 10 different game modes. Players’ achievements are tracked through leaderboards and the garage, showcasing their greatest feats for all to see. On the leaderboards, all online matches will contribute to the overall global ranking. Specific offline events will have their own separate leaderboards. In the garage, players can check their in-game stats and admire their Monster Jam truck collection.

Monster Jam Showdown is now available for PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4 (digitally), Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One (digitally), Nintendo Switch™, and PC via Steam and Epic Games Store.

*40 trucks will be included in the base game and 26 will be available through free or premium DLCs
