Off the Road 2 offers up exciting driving action as it releases on iOS and Android

Pocket Gamer RSS Feed3 min read(3 months ago)

Overview & Key Takeaways

With the heat being... well, hot over here in the UK, some people might think of going for a drive. Even more might want to head off-road and feel the wind through their hair (and the strain on their suspension). But what about if you can't do that? Well, Off the Road 2 may be able to supply exactly what you need. The newest release from developer DogByte Games continues the legacy laid down by their previous Off the Road and offers the same fast-paced driving action set across all manner of terrain. A map 30x the size of the original is just the tip of the iceberg. ... [MORE]

  • Off the Road 2 is now available on both iOS and Android
  • It offers next-gen mobile racing on the ground, air and sea
  • Explore a vast map with up to six friends and take on intricately detailed racing sim action

With the heat being... well, hot over here in the UK, some people might think of going for a drive. Even more might want to head off-road and feel the wind through their hair (and the strain on their suspension). But what about if you can't do that? Well, Off the Road 2 may be able to supply exactly what you need.

The newest release from developer DogByte Games continues the legacy laid down by their previous Off the Road and offers the same fast-paced driving action set across all manner of terrain. A map 30x the size of the original is just the tip of the iceberg.

You'll be able to not only hop behind the wheel of your off-roader of choice, but take to the tarmac in a high-powered supercar, streak through the skies in a jet or rule the waves via speedboat; all rendered in luscious next-gen graphics.

Off the wall

It's certainly an ambitious project that attempts to pair up the arcade fun of off-road racing in a variety of vehicles with the virtually limitless options for how you get around. But Off the Road 2 claims to do so, and better yet, you can even do so with friends, as OTR 2 supports six-person multiplayer.

Realistic day-night cycles, different biomes to explore, and fully realised interiors and details just add to the glut of features. I'm a little sceptical, I admit, but if OTR 2 pulls this sort of stuff off, it could be the most definitive off-road racer for mobile we've yet seen.

If wide-open exploration is your kind of thing, then why not check out our list that saw the original Off the Road grace it? We've collated the best open-world mobile games in one place, featuring everything from cosy multiplayer fun to spine-chilling survival horror.

Game of Thrones: Dragonfire ties into season three finale with limited-time event

After the disastrous reception of the Game of Thrones finale way back in 2019, it seemed as if the franchise was done on television. But after the dramatic success of both A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms and House of the Dragon, it's no surprise Game of Thrones: Dragonfire has been tying back into these newfound high points! And if you've been following House of the Dragon, you can now enjoy a limited-time event, available until August 24th, set to tie into the season three finale of the show. This event will see all the previously limited dragons return to the Hatchery, each modelled on their appearance in the show. ...

Lil' Guardsman is a Papers Please-style deduction adventure with you as an unlikely town guard📱 Mobile

Lil' Guardsman is a Papers Please-style deduction adventure with you as an unlikely town guard

While Papers, Please invoked a really grim and dystopian style of gaming, for better or for worse, many other developers have taken a slightly lighter view on the subject. Case in point: the upcoming deductive sim Lil' Guardsman, which is set to release on iOS and Android this winter, puts you in the shoes of the bane of all adventurers. In Lil' Guardsman, you play as the twelve-year-old Lil, tasked with covering your father's shift as, unsurprisingly, a guardsman at the gate of a city called the Sprawl. You'll need to interrogate various visitors, ranging from wizards to cyclopes, and decide whether to let them in, jail them or deal with them in some other way. ...

Castlevania: Grimoire of Souls set to close service in autumn📱 Mobile

Castlevania: Grimoire of Souls set to close service in autumn

Well, it's about that time again. Yes, sadly we have to report that another fan-favourite mobile game is set to shut its doors. This time, the victim is none other than Castlevania: Grimoire of Souls. And unfortunately, you don't have long to jump in and have a go, because end-of-service is set for September 3rd. A side-scrolling platformer in the vein of the classic Castlevania games, especially Symphony of the Night, Grimoire of Souls already has an interesting history. Slated to shutter back in 2020, Grimoire of Souls would instead make its way exclusively to Apple Arcade without any monetisation elements. ...
