French games developer and publisher Gameloft today released Asphalt Xtreme, the latest installment in its popular Asphalt mobile racing franchise. If Asphalt 8: Airborne was too boring for your tastes, this new racer should get your adrenaline going and juices flowing.
In Asphalt Xtreme you’ll be ripping around dunes, charging through canyons, drifting across the mud and flying past your opponents to reach the finish line.
Like many, many, many premium games on the App Store, Asphalt Xtreme is a freemium download with extra features, in-game currency, optional upgrades and other items available optionally via the In-App Purchase mechanism.
The game packs in nearly three dozen vehicles, each with its own characteristics and features, from monster trucks to American muscle cars and action vehicles like a buggy or a rally car. “Off-road vehicle types deliver unique flavors of gameplay, allowing you to constantly discover fresh and challenging experiences,” says Gameloft.
