Evolution Studios has announced that hit PSN racer MotorStorm RC has received a big update on PS3 and PS Vita.

The large update increases the places from which you can share a challenge with friends, tweaks the difficulty of 23 races to make them easier to earn medals on, and gives trial players new tracks to try out.

Evolution has confirmed that any players who previously set times that now qualify for a higher medal will receive new medals once the patch is applied.

You will be prompted to download this game update when you next start up the game from the PlayStation XMB on PlayStation 3 or LiveArea on PlayStation Vita.
