After reaching pole position in PlayStation Store Chart, the critically acclaimed Urban Trial Freestyle is now revving up for PC. The city is your playground! Nothing will stop you on your freestyle trials bike. Use the urban landscape to pull spectacular tricks - backflips, 360s, wallrides, ollies, and more. Customize your bike to boost your performance in Time Attack or Stunt mode. Choose between speed and style, developing your own unique riding style. Challenge the best riders in Ghost Mode. The variety and elaborate design of the different backdrops will keep you coming back for hours on end, to achieve a perfect run and knock the top riders off the leaderboard.
Urban Trial Freestyle has been greatly influenced by the support of Julien Dupont, the “godfather of urban trial freestyle.” Julien Dupont is known around the world for his unique street style and technique, mashing down barriers and setting new records.
Urban Trials does contain some manner of leaderboards, though they aren’t accessible, merely manifesting as an orange line to show the “world’s best” attempt at any particular challenge in stunt mode along the green “personal best” line.
So now you’re probably wondering – what’s the consensus? Surprisingly, pretty great. I found myself enjoying every moment of gameplay, from the frustrating crashes to the exhilarating highs whenever I successfully did a nearly impossible stunt. For an eShop game, I feel Urban Trial Freestyle is more than worth the $6.99 asking price. It has a lot to...
The actual game has smooth and responsive controls, an appropriate soundtrack and a particular lean-back quality that I do enjoy, allowing me to quickly jump into a game that is pretty relaxed and simple to play. But that is just enough.
Overall this is a fun package and it is worth your time and money, but it has its frustrations and there's no denying where its inspiration quite clearly came from.
