Take A Look At The Vehicle Classes In Onrush

Codemasters’ new car game that isn’t really a racing game Onrush continues to look not like a racing game with this new trailer. It is heavily focused on explaining the eight different classes- two of them are bikes.

To hone in the comparison to class-based shooters, each vehicle has abilities, traits and an ultimate ability, Rush. Some classes work well as a support class, one is obviously a tank, and a few them is of course focused on taking down the other team.

The class breakdown is delivered by the in-game announcers.

Each class has one trait that helps build Rush, one is a passive ability and the Rush ability not only gives you a massive boost of speed faster than the usual boost, but also extra modifiers. Here’s the list, taken from Codemasters’ blog:
