ModNation Racers: Road Trip features a brand spankin’ new set of 25+ tracks in an all-new career mode. No resting on your laurels from ModNation Racers for PS3. This is a completely new experience with a new set of challenges to enjoy.

1. New Career Tours

The 25+ ALL NEW tracks in ModNation Racers: Road Trip are divided in five tours of five races each in an effort to claim victory in the Mod Championship! Initial tours introduce the basics of racing like drifting and boosting (see here), track layouts, the exciting new weapons (see here) and how to use (or avoid) props or attacks on tracks. The challenge increases through a combination of intensifying track layouts and strategic use of item and prop placements. For newcomers, the learning curve is simple and short. For the veterans, the progression will help introduce new elements that add a fun twist of strategy to your racing different than you’ve had before.

2. Career Mode: Progression
Progressing through the tours in ModNation Racers for the PS3 may have been a little daunting for some since moving on to more tracks required an advanced set of racing skills. Now players are still challenged to do their best, yet are rewarded with experience Tour Points which enable them more flexibility to progress. You’ll be able to retry races to acquire Tour Points to complete your career.
