Ride to Hell: Route 666 "Rockthrough" trailer

More On: Ride to Hell: Route 666
Get it?  "Rockthrough" instead of "walkthrough" because of rock-and-roll and America, I guess.

However, maybe they should just have called it the trailer that convinces you Ride to Hell: Route 666 is the next best thing you're ever going to get to Road Rash reboot.  It's got motorcycles, and hitting people on motorcycles so Road Rash, obviously. It's also got squads, guns, classes, and something called "strategy."  Am I saying that right?  There's even a "medic" so it's Team Fortress on motorcycles AND Road Rash.  Wow.

Long story short: you kill the other team of bikers faster than they kill you.  Ride to Hell: Route 666 is out later this summer and will be available for download on Xbox Live and the PSN.  For full details, follow the jump.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Action or Tactics?  
In Deep Silver’s Ride to Hell: Route 666 you can have both!

Larkspur, Calif., May 16, 2013 -- Tired of dithering between action and strategic thinking? Deep Silver now combines both aspects in one game: Ride to Hell: Route 666 lets players experience the whole lifestyle of biker gangs, but those who want to dominate the infamous Route 66 need to act smart. In this new trailer, different classes of gang members and enemies are explained as well as how to arrange formations and how to finish off opposing bikers in close combat. Set up your team, choose your weapons and hit the road! Ride to Hell: Route 666 is scheduled for release on the PlayStation® Store and on Xbox Live® as an arcade game for the Xbox 360® video game and entertainment system from Microsoft this summer.

Ride to Hell: Route 666 is set within the Ride to Hell universe, a world of bare-knuckle violence, and rip-roaring motorcycles. Later this year the setting will be extended by two further titles featuring the unique and incomparable biker lifestyle; Ride to Hell: Retribution and Ride to Hell: Beatdown.

Ride to Hell: Retribution tells the story of a lone rider, Jake Conway, a man with either a gun in his hand or a girl on his lap (and on more than one occasion both!). He’s on a merciless path of revenge against a brutal biker gang called The Devil’s Hand, armed to the teeth with an arsenal of deadly weapons to enact his vengeance on foot and on bike. The only law Jake answers to is his own.  Hit hard, ride fast and leave 'em in the dust starting June 2013 for Xbox 360, Windows® PC, and PlayStation®3.
 
The Ride to Hell universe will be rounded out with Ride to Hell: Beatdown, a rock’n’roll brawler set to light up the mobile space, on the go! More details on this title will follow soon.

Ride to Hell: Retribution is developed by Eutechnyx, Ride to Hell: Route 666 by Black Forest Games.
