Redout, a futuristic racer similar to the likes of F-Zero and WipEout, is to receive a closed beta on PC in a few weeks’ time, developer 34BigThings has announced.

Players interested in giving it a go can head over to the developer’s website to register, with the beta due to begin in a few weeks’ time. Applications will only be open for “a few days”, though, so be quick if you want in.

Redout is described by 34BigThings as a “blazing-fast Anti Gravity racer” and a “spiritual tribute to F-Zero, Wipeout, Rollcage and POD”, and is being built using Unreal Engine 4. It’s also said to have been in development for the last two years.

Never heard of it? I hadn’t either before today, but its trailer has gotten me (and by the looks of it, quite a few others) excited to give it a go. Look out for the full game on PS4, Xbox One and PC later this year.
