Metro Rivals: New York Dev Blog #1
Today, we're ending the Festival Of Rail with a first deep dive into Metro Rivals: New York! Read our in-depth article to learn how to use Quick Time Events to build up boost and how to use that boost to your advantage. You need to take risks to win the race, but drive too recklessly and you'll fly off the rails!



We are also giving you a closer look at how we use Procedural Generation, a tool in Unreal Engine 5, to quickly build the baseline for a believable, breathing world. Much effort goes into crafting that first baseline into the final result, New York City. Close enough to be believable, but with our own touch.

Make sure to read the full article, which goes into much more detail, featuring additional screenshots and gameplay clips!

Tonight, at 7 pm UTC, we are hosting the first Metro Rivals Dev Blog stream, in which I will chat with Lead Game Designer Gabriel and Environmental Artist Sam.
Join us, and learn even more about this exciting new Simcade racing game. We're looking forward to seeing you there!
