Trials Fusion is packed to the brim with content, and amongst that are the customisation options. These are fun and add variety to the game, but unfortunately don’t happen nearly enough. There are also “skill” levels that don’t require players to reach the finish line, instead imposing specific goals like traveling as far as possible without letting go of the accelerator or as far as possible without leaning forward or back to change your trajectory.

Players will be able to pull off all kinds of manoeuvres during the game, and only the most skilled of players will be able to correct themselves in the face of error. The other half, and where most of the difficulty lies, is in precision. Trials Fusion is a physics based racing game with puzzle elements, so it takes a while to work out how your bike will react to certain geometry in the environment as well as the most effective ways to navigate obstacles. There is some occasional voice work too, and while it’s nothing besides the occasional yelp from an airborne or free-falling driver, it does get annoying from time to time. Besides the title track, the soundtrack consists of largely generic fast paced EDM tracks that perfectly fit the tone and atmosphere of the game, especially since it has stepped into a more futuristic setting. There are definitely some people that will appreciate the Swedish House Mafia-inspired B-side track that plays on the title screen, but I personally find it a bit tacky and cheesy. There are some frame rate drops in the Xbox One version too. The only real problem with the game’s presentation is the textures, which sometimes take time to properly appear after choosing to retry a level. Explosions happen in the background, items destroy parts of the track and the environment itself interacts as much as possible with the player and the track without interfering with the gameplay. Reports indicate that other versions run at reduced resolutions in order to achieve this, but most versions of the game are very well presented.

On the PS4, the game runs at full 1080p in 60fps too, so the gameplay is silky smooth. Trials Fusion takes a much more futuristic approach to its presentation – and while that doesn’t seem to make a lot of sense, it means that it gives the team a lot to work with in terms of visuals. The level creator certainly lends itself to some fantastic potential – especially players who might want to recreate versions of classic tracks from previous games.
That being said, they aren’t ground breaking either – their impact on the Trials formula is pretty minute.
It’s a physics based game that doesn’t adhere to one specific genre – there are elements of platformer, puzzle and racing games in Trials Fusion.įusion features everything players loved about the previous games, but also employs a new tricks system known as “FMX” as well as a fully-fledged track editor, allowing players to edit and create their own courses and share them with other players.Įven better, drastic changes like the FMX system are relegated to their own sections, so they won’t upset purists while also providing a new experience for players who aren’t that fussed. Trials Fusion is a follow up to the previous Trials games.
