If you haven't yet explored the thrills of Touchgrind X, now's the perfect time to dive into this exciting BMX stunt simulator. Developer Illusion Labs has just released a game-changing 2.0 update that brings a host of new and improved features to the game, making it more engaging than ever for both new and returning players.
One of the highlights of this update is the introduction of Freestyle Mode. This mode lets you take your time to perform tricks and stunts as you explore the game's maps at your own pace. It's an ideal way to hone your skills or simply enjoy the scenery without the pressure of racing. With the promise of continuously added new maps, Freestyle Mode offers a great opportunity to familiarize yourself with the game before tackling more challenging trials.
The update also introduces a new Trick Combo System, which allows you to chain various stunts together for higher scores, adding a layer of strategy and excitement to your gameplay. Alongside this, players can now enjoy features like Tricktionary Achievements, a Qualifier Series designed to help newcomers ease into the game, and enhanced matchmaking for a better multiplayer experience.
Naturally, the 2.0 update also brings significant performance optimizations. The file size has been reduced by over 50%, resulting in faster loading times and smoother gameplay. Updated animations and other upgrades further enhance the overall experience.
Illusion Labs showcased this exciting update at PGC London earlier this year, and it's a great introduction for those new to Touchgrind X. Whether you're an experienced player or a complete novice, this update offers a fantastic opportunity to jump into this Trials-like game and see how many stunts you can master.
