Racing to the finish line takes on added excitement when competitors trigger destruction on the track to take out their opponents. Disney Interactive Studios today announced Split/Second, an intense action racing game set within the world of a hyper-competitive reality television show. Competitors vie to be the first across the finish line in a made-for-TV city built for destruction, with the ultimate goal of becoming the season champion. Developed by Black Rock Studio, Split/Second is scheduled to be released in early 2010 for the Xbox 360® video game and entertainment system from Microsoft, PLAYSTATION®3 computer entertainment system and Windows-based PC. Competitors in Split/Second dont just collide with other vehicles to knock them from the track - they can also trigger explosive events that drastically alter the dynamics of the race. Players must use strategy and pinpoint timing to derail opponents, tactically alter the track or create entirely new routes.
Split/Second elevates action racing to a new level by enabling players to strategically take out their opponents by dynamically altering the course in real time, said Craig Relyea, senior vice president of global marketing, Disney Interactive Studios. Split/Second further showcases Black Rock Studios ability to innovate and deliver a compelling experience that has wide appeal beyond the traditional racing genre.
